*LoveToHate: Mr Herz is a truly horrible excuse of a person, yet he's also an undeniably fun and oddly likeable character thanks to Paul Giatmatti's performance. Never has a cold-blooded dead body fonderling attempt baby killing assassin been so charismatic.

* MagnificentBastard: Mr. Smith is a mysterious drifter and possible military veteran with a keen sense of karmic justice. Witnessing a heavily pregnant woman in labor escaping from a hitman sent by [[TheHeavy Mr. Hertz]], he saves her by impaling the hitman with a carrot and fends off additional assassins while helping the woman give birth. When the mother is killed in the process, he takes the baby with him and leaves it in a park, hoping for someone to adopt it. When a passerby looking at the baby is shot by Hertz, Smith realizes that the hitmen are also after the baby, takes it back, and with the help of prostitute Donna Quintano, decides to investigate why they're after it, fending off Hertz's goons the whole time. He learns that the baby was bred to be one of three bone marrow donors for Senator Rutledge, who needs them to treat his cancer so he can run for president, and the attempts on its life were part of a conspiracy by gun mogul Hammerson and Hertz to prevent Rutledge from becoming president and enacting more stringent gun control laws. Smith then tells Donna to leave town with the baby and requests a private meeting with Rutledge on his private jet, where he figures out that Rutledge made a deal with Hammerson and Hertz for a bone donor in exchange for looser future gun laws. He holds Rutledge hostage and shoots him in the head, hoping that the news of his assassination would trigger public outrage and immense support for his gun control proposals, and escapes the crashing jet. While he gets captured by Hertz and Hammerson afterwards and is tortured for the location of the baby, he breaks free and kills both of them in return. Smith tips off the FBI to the location of Rutledge's body and reunites with Donna and the baby at a diner, where he foils a robbery despite having his hands broken by Hertz.

* HamAndCheese: Pretty much everyone knows exactly what kind of film this is and acts accordingly, particularly the leads. Clive Owen plays it with a self-aware, Roger Moore style detachment that lets the audience know he's firmly in on the joke and Paul Giamatti in particular looks to be having an absolute blast devouring scenery like there's no tomorrow.

* SignatureScene: The sex scene between Creator/CliveOwen and Creator/MonicaBellucci's characters is probably the best-known part of the movie, not only for its fanservice but also how absurd[ly awesome] it is as Clive Owen's character guns down an army of mooks mid-coitus.
