* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: [[DiscussedTrope Discussed]]: At face value, the clean-cut bodyguard Bryce is clearly the good guy, with the hired killer Kincaid clearly being a BoxedCrook at best. But as Kincaid points out, Bryce's profession largely sees him protecting evil men, while Kincaid is paid to kill those same men. Bryce, however, later retorts that in his line of work he doesn't decide whether his clients live or die, a subtle barb at the morality of murder (even the good-intentioned kind) that muddies the water further.

* MoralEventHorizon: Dukhovich takes a flying leap over the MEH in the first five minutes when he murders a man's wife and child for daring to speak out against him. There is no sympathy wasted on him when he takes another flying leap off of a rooftop in the end.

** Dukhovich is ''not'' used as a source of humor in a film full of absurd comedy and slapstick. Further, [[spoiler: the scene where he orders a suicide bomber to set off a large truck bomb on a crowded street is treated with full seriousness, complete with hospital staff going into [[RedAlert Mass Casualty mode]] upon seeing the carnage on the TV.]]
** Dukhovich killing the man's family is also not played for comedy.

** Dukhovich is ''not'' used as a source of humor in a film full of absurd comedy and slapstick. The scene where he personally executes a dissident’s family is genuinely chilling.

"Idiot Plot" is now Flame Bait.


* IdiotPlot: Kincaid would've never been in all this trouble if he was allowed to give a remote testimony from a safe location. Nor would all the damage to Amsterdam or the Hague have happened if the International Court of Justice accepted the testimonies of Dukhovich's direct victims (one of whom was forced to watch his family be gunned down by the man) instead of deciding that the "hearsay" rebuttal was a fair point.
