Factually wrong. Asif was questioning the kids about stolen money, we never see Farhad position anyone, the boy who gets thrown off the roof is in the back, and Farhad was almost certainly lying about him taking the money.


* BatmanGambit: When Asif rounds up Farhad and other children to question them on information about the mercenaries, Farhad positions the boy who does know at the very front so he would be the one who would be thrown off the roof first, leaving Asif empty-handed.

* AmbiguousEnding: It is left it open whether [[spoiler:Tyler is actually dead and whether the man standing in the background in the last shot is really Tyler or just Ovi's imagination. The greenlighting of the sequel does at the very least confirm that Tyler survived.]]

* PoorCommunicationKills: Even after Rashid takes out Saju, the chopper pilot, and one of Nik's mercenaries, nobody bothers to warn Tyler that there's a sniper in the area. He doesn't take cover like he should (only taking cover from the police and soldiers ahead of and behind him) and gets shot as a result.

*** In the same vein, when Farhad fights Tyler, he thrusts a knife at him and punches the hilt several times in an attempt to drive it further forward, replicating a similar technique in ''Film/JohnWick''. In this case, however, Tyler is ''so'' much stronger than Farhad that it doesn't make the slightest bit of difference.

* CurbStompBattle: Tyler and Saju against just about ''anybody'' except each other, but Tyler versus the street kids is particularly one-sided.

* DontYouDarePityMe: Farhad is so insulted that Tyler kicks his ass and doesn't even consider him enough of a threat to use lethal force that he cuts off one of his own fingers to encourage Asif to let him be the one to kill Tyler.



* GoodScarsEvilScars: Tyler's body is CoveredInScars but there is nothing disfiguring his handsome face. Farhad's GlasgowGrin perfectly suits his ruthless and sadistic personality.



* IJustWantToBeBadass: Asif discusses this with Farhad, who advises not to try being a badass because [[AlwaysABiggerFish there will always be a bigger badass]].

Considering Farhad [[spoiler: sneaks into the final battle, shoots Tyler in the back, and then gets the hell out of there]], he appears to have taken the advice to heart.
