History Film / WrathOfMan

* ConspicuousConsumption: Invoked by Jackson warning his crew not to quit their day jobs or spend wildly after their robberies but keep it quiet. "Groceries good, sports cars bad." He's naturally not happy to find Jan is living in a nice apartment with a $28,000 motorcycle.

* DarkerAndEdgier: Noticeably one of the darker entries of Creator/GuyRitchie's filmography, with a constant undercurrent of brutality. While the WorldOfSnark and SnarkToSnarkCombat that's a trademark of his SignatureStyle is littered throughout the movie, little of it is PlayedForLaughs like it usually would. Hill is a [[AntiHero Nominal Anti Hero]] at best and almost [[spoiler:every character winds up dead by the movie's end.]]

** This also comes to the fore while he's dealing with the pedophilic human traffickers, where he's so calm and collected as he rounds up and mercilessly executes the perpetrators that the only sign of how murderously angry he is at what they've been doing is when he puts a few extra rounds into the last trafficker.

* TranquilFury: [[spoiler:Heargraves barely emotes beyond a scowl or raise his voice above Jason Statham's signature Cockney voice as he kills his way to finding Jan.

* LaserGuidedKarma: [[spoiler: After murdering Dougie and backstabbing his colleagues to steal their money, Jan would ultimately get his comeuppance when a [[TranquilFury coldly enraged]] [[PapaWolf Heargraves]] breaks into his room, corners and then executes him by shooting him in the exact spots he shot his boy.]]

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: [[spoiler:Crime boss Heargraves]] has the marksmanship and ruthless combat experience to back up his leadership of his organization. And most of his time [[spoiler:at Fortico trying to find Jan]] is all done without assistance from his underlings.

* KillEmAll: Barring [[NonActionGuy Fortico manager Terry Rossi]], [[spoiler:H is the only main character left alive by the end of the film.]]

* AntiClimax: "Scorched Earth" ends with the gang torturing a powerful figure and learning of a gang of truly vile human traffickers so powerful and dangerous even he fears them. In the next scene, said gang has already been defeated and is dismissed as relatively small-time.

** After going through every possible gang they can think of, [[spoiler:Heargraves]]' men dig even deeper and interrogate a major figure they would have otherwise not touched. He tells them about a truly evil gang of human traffickers that will kill him if they ever know he mentioned them. Said group is not connected to [[spoiler:Dougie's death]] at all.

* SociopathicSoldier: Two members of Sarge's crew show different forms of this. Brad has failed to adjust to civilian life and is itching for the thrill of a mission, caring little who gets hurt in the process. Jan seems more unstable than anything and has poor impulse control [[spoiler:which leads to him murdering Sarge and Bullet to steal the money]].
