Added Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy trope and explanation

Added DiffLines:

* ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: Collin's entire team of professional mercenaries armed with automatic weapons manages to miss nearly single shot on the protagonists despite hailing them in the open (with the one bullet that does manage to hit being inconsequential and not even slowing Payu in his final fight). This is hilariously lampshaded by Tian Xiao Xian, a philanthropist who's never handled a weapon, outgunning the last mercenary, by hitting every shot while she quickly unloaded her pistol (thankfully, the gun had no recoil).

Crosswicking


* HeroicBloodshed: The film centres on an Indonesian man who wants to avenge his village's destruction at the hands of a band of mercenaries, while two defectors fight for their own survival alongside a Chinese heiress targeted by the mercenaries. There is an assortment of gun and melee violence and virtually every named character is a capable combatant.

Added DiffLines:

* NominalVillain: Payu and Long Fei initially accompany a band of mercenaries who raid a village to free the mercenary leader Collins. Despite nominally being on the side of the mercenaries, Payu and Long Fei do not kill anyone, and once they realize that they are not on a humanitarian mission like they thought, they turn on Collins and his crew, freeing the prisoners who would have been killed by Collins' explosives.

Added DiffLines:

* AFatherToHisMen: As ruthless as he is, the mercenary second-in-command Devereaux appears to care about his subordinates, unlike his superior, the cold and bloodthirsty Collins, as seen when Devereaux expresses concern upon realizing that two mercenaries are unaccounted for.
