* NeedsMoreLove: Has an ''uncannily'' low number of reviews on Fanfiction.net for such a good story.

Please present all Complete Monster candidates in this thread.


* CompleteMonster: [[spoiler:Yakushi Kabuto, a DepravedHomosexual who rescues Itachi from execution in order to make him his sex slave, turns out to have been the sadistic guard who almost killed Nagato and brutally beat Sasuke and eventually murders Itachi, possibly to cover up their relationship, possibly just because he's that much of a vicious sicko.]]

Added DiffLines:

** Marvin Boggs is a retired survivalist CIA operative in hiding whose decades of agency-enforced drug abuse have given him [[SuperOCD an almost clairvoyand]] level of [[ProperlyParanoid paranoia]] that he expresses in [[CloudCuckooLander the most absurd terms possible.]] Despite being an AdaptationCharacter not from the comic, he might be the most WarrenEllis'y thing about the film.

* FridgeHorror: Cooper asked his supervisor why Frank and the others were marked for death. His supervisor stated angrily that she was not read into it. Which means that they could have been killing all these people because someone high up didn't like them for all they knew and didn't have a problem with that.

* AuthorAppeal: While there isn't an excess of it, theres a fair bit of bondage in the movie, with emphisis on wide, tape gags. It can't be a coincidence that two scenes of two different people with them on are so close together, that there is an onscreen gagging of the main heroine, numerous cuts to her struggling while [[BoundandGagged]], and when she breaks free, unlike in almost ''every other'' potrayal of a gagged captive escaping their bonds, she does not immediantly remove her gag, despite having both hands free.

* AccidentalInnuendo: The first film has the tagline, "There's no substitute for experience." They were referring to fighting, but it did costar Helen Mirren...

Added DiffLines:

* AcceptableTargets: In both films, the protagonists usually refrain from killing law enforcement officers and other mooks simply doing their jobs. However, in the sequel, they freely gun down numerous Iranian embassy guards, who are described as hardcore Revolutionary Guard extremists.

* RealityIsUnrealistic: While the specific example of an unbreakable lock being set next to a very breakable wall may not be a literal example, it's representative of a larger problem government organizations have of doing something extremely competently up to a certain point and then screwing it up with a glaring lack of foresight. One real-life example is a computer that the armed forces designed that was able to withstand absolutely any possible damage, up to and including the location it was in surviving a direct thermonuclear strike... but you couldn't take a drink into the room with it or you might ruin the keyboard.
