!!Tropes:
* ATeamFiring: Chris and Marbles when they’re at a shooting range preparing for the climax.
* AddedAlliterativeAppeal: Marty’s dad says if the money isn’t recovered then he’s facing “the roof, the river or the revolver” as punishment
* AntiVillain: Deputy Ward, who is reluctant to take the money with his boss in the first place and suggests they hand it over to the mob guys rather than risk a fight, but ultimately goes along with his boss.
* ChangedMyMindKid: Chris gets nervous before the final shootout and decides to skip town (trying to convinced Marbles to do the same) but in the end he comes back to help, shooting the sheriffs cousin as he gets the drop on Matty and the others.
* CorruptHick: sheriff decker is very keen on keeping the money for himself.
* EvilChancellor: Teddy, the mobs NumberTwo has been StealingFromTheTill, goes after the money himself, and reveals [[HiddenDisdainReveal that he’s always hated Matty’s dad for making him lose when they play basketball together]].
* HeroKiller: Teddy [[spoiler:Shoots Chris and Marbles, with the later at least being fatal]].
* MafiaPrincess: Matty and Chris are male versions. They’ve been trying to make it in legitimate profession (sports agent and restauranteur) but attract too much infamy from their family names (although Chris isn’t above his to avoid getting laid) and are ultimately desperate enough to get drawn back into their old lives, although Matty severs ties with his father for good at the end.
* TheMillstone: Marbles was the one who lost the money in the first place and contributes the least to trying to get it back.
* OnlySaneMan: Taylor is the most practical and [[NervesOfSteel fearless]] of the four mob kids.
* ThoseTwoGuys: The Sheriffs son and his skater buddy.
