8	!!This film has examples of:
9
10	* AdaptationalNationality: Jack Carver becomes German in this adaptation, likely to allow for Creator/TilSchweiger to speak without attempting an American accent.
11	* BigBad: Dr. Krieger, whose experiments get out of hand.
12	* TheCameo: [[Series/NoReservations Anthony Bourdain]] appears uncredited as a scientist.
13	* ChaseScene:
14	** After rescuing Valerie, Jack has to elude the mooks that are chasing them with a stolen car.
15	** Another one, this time with boats, starts when Jack tries to sneak up on Emillio, is found by Parker, and has to flee.
16	* CoversAlwaysLie: The only thing about the DVD cover that's actually true to the film is that it has Til Schweiger's character using a gun (they at least had the decency to give him the same gun he uses in the film).
17	* TheDragon: Chernov for Dr. Krieger. She is also [[MookLieutenant in direct command]] of the elite mercenaries working for him.
18	* EveryCarIsAPinto: A boat (that wasn't even in full speed yet) crashes into a wall, and explodes.
19	* AFatherToHisMen: While Chernov doesn't think much about sacrificing her men for the sake of science or shooting them for complaining, Parker is more close to his men and actually tries to keep them alive.
20	* GrapplingHookPistol: Valerie accidentally fires a grappling-hook at the helicopter that is flying above the car that Jack is driving. The helicopter then starts carrying the car when it goes over a cliff, and once the cable holding them together is cut, it flies up on the helicopter's main rotor and sends it crashing down.
21	* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: As he is chased by one of the {{Super Soldier}}s through the lumber mill, Jack triggers a laser-operated saw, which proceeds to cut his pursuer in half from the waist.
22	* IntimateHealing: Jack and Valerie have to cuddle half-naked in order to survive the cold after they both got soaked after their car fell in the water.
23	* MoeGreeneSpecial: Since the {{Super Soldier}}s' skin is [[MadeOfIron so tough]], shooting them in the eye (or mouth) is the best way to kill them.
24	* MookLieutenant: Chernov commands Krieger's elite mooks (that dress in all-black) and Parker commands the regular mooks (who wear camo).
25	* NeckSnap: A rampaging SuperSoldier rushes to a mook manning a machine gun, twists his head around, and starts firing the weapon himself, which eventually leads to all the other {{Super Soldier}}s getting out of their cells.
26	* NoPeekingRequest: When Jack and Valerie get into an abandoned cabin while still soaked after their car got thrown into the water, Jack suggests they take off their wet clothes to [[CatchYourDeathOfCold prevent getting sick]], and Valerie asks him to turn around while she strips down to her underwear. While he's mostly preoccupied with bandaging his wound, he [[CovertPervert still sneaks a few peeks]].
27	* OrAreYouJustHappyToSeeMe: During the IntimateHealing scene, Valerie feels something poking her and asks Jack if that's his gun. Surprisingly, it actually is, as he claims [[PillowPistol he never goes to sleep without it]].
28	* PluckyComicRelief: Emillio's role is to provide humorous dialogue after he is stuck together with Jack. Most of it is him complaining about the things happening.
29	* PopTheTires: During the car chase, Jack turns the car around to go in reverse and shoots a tire from the car closest to him, causing it to flip over.
30	* POVCam: One of the modifications that Dr. Krieger does to his SuperSoldier subjects is turning their eyes into cameras, justifying several shots from their point of view.
31	* SexinessScore: After their night together, Jack asks Valerie to rate him OnAScaleFromOneToTen and gets peeved when she gives him a "two". This becomes a RunningGag through the movie, as she keeps giving him low scores just to emasculate him.
32	* SexyDiscretionShot: The IntimateHealing scene ends with Jack and Valerie succumbing to their UnresolvedSexualTension, with the scene ending just as they start having sex.
33	* ShirtlessScene: Jack takes his shirt off to patch his wounds while Valerie in turn takes off her wet clothes.
34	* SleightOfTongue: When the captive Valerie is reunited with Jack, she kisses him, passing his personal handcuffs-key to him with her mouth.
35	* ThrowingTheDistraction: To get to the captured Valerie, Jack creeps to the car holding her and throws a rock. The noise from it sends several mooks to investigate, giving him a chance for a daring rescue.
36	* TrojanPrisoner: To infiltrate the lumber mill where Dr. Krieger is stationed in, Jack [[DressingAsTheEnemy steals one mook's uniform]] and goes there with Valerie as his "prisoner".
37	* WickedCultured: Dr. Krieger enjoys listening to classical music while painting on his free time.
