1 | * CrazyIsCool: Wax. He is actually one of the good guys, but his methods are highly unorthodox, mainly forcing his partner to carry around a ming vase with 5kg of seized cocaine while casually shooting his way through the Parisian underworld to dismantle a terrorist cell. |
2 | * DirectorDisplacement: Creator/LucBesson came up with the story but didn't direct or write the screenplay. |
3 | * MagnificentBastard: [[ClockKing Charlie Wax]] is a [[LargeHam boisterous]] but highly effective CIA assassin who has been tasked to destroy a jihadist cell in Paris with his tag-along partner Reese. Wax smuggles his favorite gun through French customs and immediately carves a bloody path through the French underworld, willing to use wildly illegal means to achieve his goals while [[{{Troll}} deliberately messing with his partner]] by forcing him to carry around and snort cocaine and keeping him in the dark about their ultimate mission. Wax later executes a [[WouldHitAGirl female terrorist]] in cold blood and with Reese's help ultimately secures American interests abroad. |
4 | * MemeticMutation: The dinner scene when Wax shoots the woman in the head (after figuring out that she's a terrorist). |
