* TheFriendNobodyLikes: More explicitly in the novel but he is explicitly only kept around for [[TheDreaded practical reasons]], behind his back while he is still feared he is not only not respected but actively disliked. This is of course because most of the older family members know he murdered his own child.

* TokenEvilTeammate: He is much worse than the other members of Vito Corleone's crew. To the point he is considered evil [[EvenEvilHasStandards even by other members of the mafia]] and Michael is disturbed by his backstory. Vito can only (morally) justify employing Luca by thinking he is doing a public good by keeping him on a short leash and keeping Luca from killing his old mistress Filomena.

* AdaptationalDumbass: His assassination of Philip Tattaglia is much more impressive and "clean" in the novel than the film. In the novel he solo kills Tattaglia via a single well-placed pistol shot while concealed. In the film, he and another mook just open fire with machine guns and kill a civilian in the process.
