| 2 | !!Examples: |
| 3 | * AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Freeman and Peters. Although they are implied to be DirtyCops and are seen to be [[ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem obnoxious and harassing people just because they can]], they also are shown [[BunnyEarsLawyer to take their jobs seriously]], especially in the aftermath of [[spoiler: Ebony's rape when they come to arrest Ronnie and Tricks]]. Also, in their rare interactions with the ''protagonists'', they are nothing but courteous to them. |
| 4 | * FashionVictimVillain: K.C.'s goofy Dreamsicle-orange ensemble. This is even brought up by Freeman and Peters at one point; in fact, it's such a contrast from Brooklyn's basic black clothes that you could view the duo as villainous versions of [[ComicBook/{{Batman}} Batman and Robin]]. |
| 5 | * HamAndCheese: Creator/BernieMac is deliciously hammy in his role and is clearly enjoying earning his dues. |
| 6 | * HollywoodPudgy: Tricks is depicted as this, being considered fat when she is slightly overweight, at the most. |
| 7 | * JerkassWoobie: Ebony. As wild and defiant as she is and as much as she screws up Diamond's life, it's implied that [[DarkAndTroubledPast she had it rough growing up and had to look out for herself]] and of course what happened to her in the film's climax. You want to give her a hug after all is said and done. |
| 8 | * JustHereForGodzilla: There are some who watch this movie just for [[spoiler: the fight between Diana and Ronnie]] at the climax of the movie. |
| 9 | * MoralEventHorizon: Reggie, Clyde and Ronnie are among one of the ''many'' villains of the film, but they hit full stride when they [[spoiler: each had a hand in allowing Ebony to get raped by Junior. Ronnie knows what kind of man her brother is and even after discovering what he did, she still covers for him, Reggie was the one who told Junior that she would let him (and the other men at the party) run a train on her and Clyde distracted Ronnie with the allure of weed to let it happen.]] Also, not only do both men [[KarmaHoudini get away with their act]] [[FridgeHorror (and it's implied that they do it to another woman in the future with Diana saying that they were last seen at "The Freaknik")]][[note]]An episode of ''Series/TrueLife'' chronicled the "Freaknik", a now-defunct Hip-Hop musical festival version of spring break, where two men groped and assaulted a woman on camera [[BystanderSyndrome while the cameras continued to roll]] with the suggestion they were the men who did it or at least among those who had committed other, ''non-televised'' sexual harrassments/assaults at the event[[/note]], but [[spoiler:every man left the party as the rape happens instead of making any attempt to stop it or summon help. Reggie even implies he did it because Ebony said no to him]]. |
