The film follows a survival-horror framework centered on American graduate students. There is no evidence of non-cisnormative identities or narratives that critique heteronormativity.

The narrative focuses on a high-stakes survival scenario among students. It lacks confirmation of women in positions of superior intellect or the subversion of masculine leadership.

While set in Africa, the story focuses on a cohort of American protagonists. This Western-centric focus limits the potential for a truly multi-ethnic ensemble.

The jungle setting serves as a site of horror against a remote species. The narrative prioritizes Western survival over a critique of colonial or systemic power dynamics.

There is no indication that characters with visible or invisible disabilities are central to the plot or portrayed with agency.
