* SurveillanceStationSlacker: The security guard at Dyson's is watching a porno film rather than the surveillance monitors when Ruben sneaks up to him and knocks him out.

* SeinfeldianConversation: Just about any conversation with Ruben is guaranteed to go off an a tangent that makes sense to no one but Ruben, and usually leaves his partners wondering how they ended up here. One example of this is when Junior and Ruben are driving back from the ransom pickup and Junior tries to make a point about TheCaper by referring to the Creator/ErrolFlynn picture ''Film/ObjectiveBurma''. Before he can finish his point, Ruben interrupts to ask if Errol Flynn as gay. This then segues into a long story about his mother and why he hates old movies ever since her learned Creator/RockHudson and Creator/CaryGrant were gay. [[spoiler:Especially poignant as it is Ruben's last conversation, as Junior shoots him the head partway through.]]

* TheImmodestOrgasm: When Coco and Junior have sex immediately after the kidnapping, Coco's orgasmic cries can by the rest of the gang no matter where they are in the house, to the extent that Lizard puts on headphones in an attempt to drown her out.

* DirtyCop: Detective Matty Grimes is on the payroll of Senator Hornbeck and has been tailing her and tapping her phone. He later turns up in an attempt to clean a crime scene for the Senator [[spoiler:but is busted by Agent Hawkins]].

* NoHonourAmongThieves: [[spoiler:The entire kidnap scheme is revealed to have been a ploy by Junior to manipulate Coco into killing the senator's wife. He then gets paid off, kills Ruben, and leaves the rest of the gang to be killed Hornbeck's henchmen as they come to torture Dyson.]]

* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Ruben may have been punched in the head a few too many times during his boxing career. He tries to impress potential employers by playing RussianRoulette and, when that fails with Coco, he wins her over by mamboing with her. he will also turn any simple question into a SeinfeldianConversation.

* DrivesLikeCrazy: Detective Friedman makes an offhand comment about being a terrible driver early on in the film. Turns into a BrickJoke much later when he crashes his car while trying to follow Rickles: breaking his ankle and Hawkins' nose.

* FBIAgent: Creator/EmmaThompson plays FBI Agent Sadie Hawkins: the lead agent in charge of investigating the abduction of tech entrepreneur Ben Dyson. Various lesser agents buzz around her doing her bidding. In an aversion of JurisdictionFriction, she actually gets on well and collaborates with Detective David Friedman (Creator/AlanRickman), the New Orleans police detective in charge of investigating the homicide that occurred at the same time as the kidnapping.

* JackBauerInterrogationTechnique: Friedman uses a [[GolfClubbing golf club]] (and some BulletDancing) to force some answers out of DirtyCop Matty Grimes. Somewhat justified in that: a) Grimes is not officially a suspect or in custody; b) Friedman does not intend using any information her gets out of Grimes in court; and c) Friedman ''really'' dislikes Grimes (who is married to his ex-wife).

* SurveillanceStationSlacker: The security guard at Dyson's is watching a porno film rather than the surveillance monitors when Ruben sneaks up in him and knocks him out.
* SuspectIsHatless: The security guard gives Detective Friedman a description of the person he saw taping over the camera lens: the only one of the kidnappers he saw before he was knocked out. He had dark hair and was in his late 20s. Or 30s. Or maybe 40s. He then admits that his eyesight isn't so good.

* CantTieHisTie: [[TropesAreFlexible He is not actually wearing a tie]], but Coco straightens Junior's collar and the lapels on his jacket before he leaves to collect the ransom.
