History Film / ColdPursuit

* BigBadassRig: Nels uses his heavy-duty snowplow as weapon during his RoaringRampageOfRevenge. Buttoned up inside it, he is able to cut a swathe through two heavily armed gangs who are shooting and him and each other.
* BrickJoke: Avalanche goes paragliding when White Bull's gang are [[VillainsOutShopping spending the day at the ski resort]]. Anyone watching the final shootout closely might notice that Avalanche is not present. The final shot of the movie is [[spoiler:is Avalanche's paraglider descending from the sky and colliding with Nils' snowplow where he is GroundByGears]].
** Another one is whenever a character is killed, their name is dramatically shown on a black screen before cutting to the next scene. In the finale [[spoiler:when Viking and White Bull's gangs wipe each other out in a massive shootout, the screen is filled with names.]]

* ConstructionVehicleRampage: Both gangs arrive at Nels' workplace, and most of them are killed in the ensuing shootout. Viking, attempting to drive away, is trapped when Nels uses a John Deere tracked feller-buncher (a tree harvester) to impale a shorn tree into his car.
* ConvenientTerminalIllness: Nels' brother Brock is dying of cancer. When Viking mistakenly concludes that Brock is the one who has been killing his men, Brock confesses: taking the fall for Nels and dying in his place.

* CulturalTranslation: A character discusses giving a hotel a bad review on "Yelp", the UK trailers replaces "Yelp" with "[=TripAdvisor=]".

** ZigZagged. When the Eskimo betrays Coxman to Viking for $90,000, the Viking is disgusted at the Eskimo's lack of professionalism: if he has taken Coxman's money for the contract, he should have followed through with the contract. He then has the Eskimo executed. However, he later promises Janitor Chuck $10,000 for information on Coxman's whereabouts. After getting the information, [[HypocriticalHumor he has Chuck shot]].

* InterruptedSuicide: Nels has his rifle in his mouth and is about to pull the trigger when he is interrupted by Dante's presence in the garage. When he learns the truth of of Kyle's death from Dante, he abandons his suicide plans and instead embarks on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Grace ignores Nels' claims and evidence their son been murdered, and instead pretends it was their own fault he died from drug abuse.
* {{Jerkass}}: Coxman’s sister-in-law Ahn, she constantly fixes Nels with a permanent DeathGlare for seemingly no reason and when [[spoiler: her husband]] dies, her last act before leaving is to spit on his grave.
* KarmaHoudini: The one gangster that survives the shoutout at the end is [[spoiler: White Bull]].

* PutOnTheBus: Nels' wife Grace, assuming that Nels doesn’t care about their sons death and unaware of his taking revenge against the gangsters simply leaves him without a word, leaving only a blank letter.

* ShipperOnDeck: A downplayed example. Gib seems quite keen to get Kim and her ex-boyfriend Kurt back together; despite the fact he's never met Kurt. It's possible that he just dislikes Kim using Kurt for information, and wants to see Kurt get something out of the deal.

''Cold Pursuit'' is a 2019 American {{Black Comedy}} {{Action|Genre}} {{Thriller}} film directed by Hans Petter Moland (in his Hollywood debut) from a screenplay by Frank Baldwin. The film stars Creator/LiamNeeson, Creator/LauraDern, Creator/EmmyRossum, Creator/WilliamForsythe, and Creator/TomBateman. It is a remake of the 2014 Norwegian vigilante film ''Film/InOrderOfDisappearance'' (''Kraftidioten''), also directed by Moland, and follows a snowplow driver who sets out for revenge on a local drug lord following the murder of his son.

* EverythingIsRacist: Deliberately invoked by White Bull's right-hand man Thorpe. When trying to check into the hotel, the receptionist tells him that he needs a reservation. Thorpe chooses to interpret this as her telling him to 'get back to the reservation'. She repeats the statement several times before she realizes who she is talking to. Threatening all kinds of complaints, Thorpe is able to parlay this into rooms in the fully booked hotel, and free ski passes for the weekend.

* ShotForShotRemake: For the most part it follows the same beats of ''In Order of Disappearance''. However, given the AdaptationalNationality and RaceLift, the remake has enough original moments and new spins to some scenes to avoid being a direct copy. An excellent example of this is when the gangsters go at a ski resort and are annoyed that they needed a reservation to have enough rooms. In the original, they were Serbians and not much happened, but in the remake, being Native Americans, the receptionist's unfortunate wording gets a MistakenForRacist treatment that gives the criminals the upper hand at getting what they want.

* ShotForShotRemake: Of ''In Order of Disappearance''.

* {{Jerkass}}: Coxman’s sister-in-law Ahn, she constantly fixes Nels with a permanent death glare for seemingly no reason and when [[spoiler: her husband]] dies, her last act is to spit on his grave.
