History Film / TheHitmansWifesBodyguard

** When Bryce introduces his father, played by Creator/MorganFreeman he notices he is also known for his calming and serene voice.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Bryce Sr. serves gelato with supper, even though it's Bryce's TraumaButton, and glumly admits he forgot when Bryce excuses himself. [[spoiler:Except, wait, how could a [[GoodStepmother Good Stepfather]] like him forget something like that? Well, he's later revealed to be evil and he considers Bryce an embarrassment, so it's not that he forgot, it's that he didn't care.]]

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Implied with [[spoiler:Michael Sr.]] in that he only works for Aristotle and helps him because [[spoiler:[[PunchClockVillain it's his job]] to do so]] and he values his bizarre ethics, to the point that--albeit while wearing a vest--he even takes a bullet to protect Aristotle.

* PunchClockVillain: [[spoiler:Bryce Sr.]] is so devoted to his [[spoiler:job as a bodyguard]] that [[spoiler:that's apparently [[EvenEvilHasStandards his primary/only reason]] given]] for helping and working for Aristotle in the first place. Proves fully devoted to the role that he even takes a bullet for Aristotle, even while wearing a vest.

* UnflinchingWalk: [[spoiler:After Bryce finds out that his stepfather [[FaceHeelTurn turned his back on him]], he blows up the Jaguar that was given to him before walking away.]]

* PetTheDog: [[spoiler:Senior]] offers Michael the chance to get his bodyguarding license back immediately if he walks away from the fight.

* WhamLine: PlayedForLaughs. After Bryce signs some papers for Darius and Sonia, Sonia is suddenly beaming and smiling. That's because [[spoiler: Bryce had unknowingly signed Darius and Sonia's adoption papers, making him their son now]].
-->'''Sonia:''' ''(to Bryce)'' [[spoiler: You're my son now!]]

Still stressed by the events of the first film, Michael Bryce (Creator/RyanReynolds) decides to take a holiday and not think about bodyguarding. His plans come to a screeching halt when Sonia Kincaid (Creator/SalmaHayek) and Darius Kincaud (Creator/SamuelLJackson) - who is the cause of his psychological problems - barrels into his life. On top of that, Interpol assigns the three with a mission to prevent terrorist Aristotle Papadopoulos (Creator/AntonioBanderas) from disrupting all-electric power in Europe. This leads our heroes into a series of mishaps, explosions, and a chance meeting with an old family member (Creator/MorganFreeman) where Bryce will find out what kind of person he truly is.

* FiveSecondForeshadowing: The ending of the movie has [[spoiler:Sonia secretly asking O'Neill for something. When he asks if she's serious about this, which she confirms, he hands her a form and says that her group are ''"sicker fucks than [he] thought"''. Bryce believes the form is a way to get back his Triple-A bodyguarding license, and signs it. But the thing is, why would a bodyguard form sicken O'Neill? Because those forms are actually adoption papers for Sonia and Darius to leagally adopt someone... namely, ''Bryce'']]!

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Implied with [[spoiler:Michael Sr.]] in that he only works for Aristotle and helps him because [[spoiler:[[PunchClockVillain it's his job]] to do so]] and he values his bizarre ethics.

* PunchClockVillain: [[spoiler:Bryce Sr.]] is so devoted to his [[spoiler:job as a bodyguard]] that [[spoiler:that's apparently [[EvenEvilHasStandards his primary/only reason]] given]] for helping and working for Aristotle in the first place.

* SadistShow: The humour in the movie comes from two main sources: Sonia being CrazyAwesome (with an emphasis on crazy) and Bryce enduring all kinds of physical and psychological abuse (half of them because of Sonia's antics). He starts the film with a HappyEndingOverride from [[Film/TheHitmansBodyguard the previous film]], receives zero respect from anyone (including [[spoiler:his father]]), gets run over by cars and boats, drugged, stuffed in the trunk of a car, mistaken for dead, and that only covers half of the movie. The film ends with him [[spoiler:[[ScrewThisImOuttaHere jumping out of a small boat]] where he had been stuck for a month in the company of the Kincaids, now his adoptive parents, who spend their time having loud sex]]. And, unlike the first film, he gets very few occasions to show his competence.

* ImStandingRightHere: Kingcaid is annoyed that wife brought Michael Bryce to his rescue and even calls him "the most annoying motherfucker on Earth". Bryce, meanwhile, is standing a few feet in front of him.
-->'''Michael:''' Excuse me? I have 20/20 hearing.

* HeadphonesEqualIsolation: When Bryce goes to Capri (like the pants), he starts off by putting on some headphones and reads Literature/TheSecret and is completely unaware of the [[FunnyBackgroundEvent chaos unfolding behind him]] before Sonia pulls the headphones off him.

* MistakenForCheating: Darius borrows Bryce's phone and Sonia grabs it away from him and finds out he was talking about something involving "Carmen", it turns out he was calling to get tickets for the opera Theatre/{{Carmen}}.

** After [[spoiler: Sonia claims to be Aristotle's lost love and Bryce's stepfather turns out to be working for Aristotle]] Bryce and Darius end up in a bar together causing the latter to quote from Film/{{Casablanca}}.

* InMemoriam: [[ParodiedTrope Parodied]] in TheStinger. [[spoiler: One is given to the the two INTERPOL agents that died during the first level decoy.]]

* FiveSecondForeshadowing: The ending of the movie has [[spoiler:Sonia secretly asking O'Neill for something.
