!Tropes for the film:
* CantStopTheSignal: Attempted, only for the BigBad to reveal that the only witness who can verify the story has just been admitted to a mental hospital. John (Norris) then decides to settle the matter [[VigilanteExecution via more direct means]].
* GoAmongMadPeople: Jake T. Booker tries to force corrupt politician, Conrad Morgan, to resign, but Morgan reveals that their only witness (his aide) is incommunicado in the psychiatric ward after 'going insane'. Booker makes Morgan disappear permanently, and a news report (arranged by his CIA friend) states that the politician has resigned and will be replaced by the aide once he gets out of the hospital where he's having a "routine medical checkup".
* {{Tagline}}: "Chuck Norris is John T. Booker and Booker is fighting back".
* UriahGambit: The movie opens with Booker leading a CIA commando unit to rescue prisoners of war, only to find the camp full of Vietcong instead. They manage to blast their way out only to find their pickup helicopters aren't at the rendezvous either. Only five of them make it back to their own lines. Booker knows that they've been set up, but figures [[GovernmentConspiracy there's nothing he can do about it]]. Turns out the people who wanted him dead aren't happy that he survived, which is what drives the rest of the movie.
