6!!This film provides examples of:
7
8* TheAce: Peter Prentiss is rich, is a martial arts black-belt and is very charismatic. Deconstructed when it's made clear that he's a StalkerWithACrush on Sarah and, as Tom makes clear when they try to fight at the climax, he knows perfectly well that Sarah is married because he was right there at the wedding and he ''still'' is chasing them around Europe hoping to bang her.
9* AlliterativeName: Peter Prentiss
10* BlackComedyPetDeath: When Tom and Sarah first move in together, he has to deal with her dog Bags, which took an instant dislike to him when they met. Eventually he loses his temper when the dog starts gnawing on his ankle, and randomly throws its ball to distract it... straight through the open window. Bags leaps after the ball and straight into the road, and is hit by a car. To cover for this, Tom later lies to Sarah that Bags was chasing a pigeon. While some animals do survive being hit by cars, the next scene has them standing over Bags' grave.
11* BrickJoke: The stewardess who gets her nose broken by an airplane lavatory door when Tom and Sarah try to join the MileHighClub.
12* ButtMonkey / ChewToy: Tom. He gets hit in the head with a 10 lb ashtray and receives a cavity search in an Italian airport, among other things.
13* DatingWhatDaddyHates: Sarah's dad (and pretty much her entire family) hates Tom.
14* DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale: Wendy aggressively attempting to push sex onto an unwilling Tom is PlayedForLaughs.
15* {{Eagleland}}: Tom acts like a very stereotypical American tourist who only cares about sports and beer.
16* HowWeGotHere: The film opens with the couple splitting up after the disaster of a honeymoon and then it returns to show the events leading up to this.
17* ForcefulKiss: [[spoiler: Peter plants one on Sarah.]]
18* HorribleHoneymoon: The film focuses on the disastrous honeymoon of a couple called Tom and Sarah, whether it be shutting down the electricity of the village that they're staying at, or staying at a wreck of a house recommended by Tom's father. It ultimately ends in both a fight which lands the couple in jail and them believing that both have cheated on the other.
19* IKnowKarate: Peter tells Tom this. He also pronounces it "ka-ra-TAY".
20* JerkAss: Tom. Also, pretty much everyone in Sarah's family, except her mother.
21** The European lady who pushes Tom and Sarah's rental car off a cliff, then flips them off.
22* KafkaKomedy: Everything that could go wrong for these two, goes ''absolutely'' wrong.
23* MileHighClub: Tom and Sarah try to join it on their way to Europe. It doesn't go well.
24* TheMillstone: Kyle, Tom's immature and loud-mouthed best friend.
25* MistakenForCheating: Tom and Sarah accuse each other of this towards the end, although to be fair, neither of them were completely innocent.
26* ObnoxiousInLaws: Sarah's family is a picture-perfect example. Their hatred of Tom feels [[IrrationalHatred flat-out irrational]] at times.
27* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Tom gets one from Sarah's father and from the snooty manager of the ritzy French hotel they go to.
28* RichBitch: Sarah, although her sister is a much better example of this trope.
29* YouCanAlwaysTellALiar: Tom's flared nostrils are a dead giveaway for Sarah.
