Mythology Gag: This time, Joe is The Hero and protagonist, while Kong is Joe’s sidekick and partner, a reverse of the original version. | |

Make It Look Like an Accident | |
Bangkok Dangerous 2008 / int_3f0b2f50 | comment |
Make It Look Like an Accident: Joe executes his hired help in this manner. His second onscreen kill, which is his helper from an assassination mission in Prague, gets knocked out non-lethally before Joe pumps drugs into his veins to make his death look like an overdose. | |

Blood Is Squicker in Water: During the scene where Joe executes his target in the floating market, Joe puts four bullets through his target which penetrates the bottom of the motorboat, leaving behind red-tainted bullet streaks underwater. | |

Half the Man He Used to Be | |
Bangkok Dangerous 2008 / int_91697559 | comment |
Half the Man He Used to Be: In the final shootout, an Elite Mook takes on Joe directly and managed to pin him down for a few seconds, until Joe shoves a grenade into his opponent’s belt and slams the mook into a wall. The explosion cuts said mook into half from the waist in a rather messy way. | |

Joe kills the Big Bad, Surat, and himself together using the same method Kong used to execute the unnamed mob boss, by putting their heads together and firing a single shot for a One-Hit Polykill. | |

Bangkok Dangerous 2008 / int_accd97de | comment |
Actionized Adaptation: There are more shootouts, fight scenes, and action in this version than the 1999 original, including a boat chase, another extended assassination in a pool, and a longer climatic shootout with more faceless mooks Joe had to kill before confronting Surat. | |

Death Montage: Same as the original movie, although Joe’s hits are more varied and involves him killing European and American mobsters as well, due to the character being changed to an international-based hitman. | |

Bangkok Dangerous 2008 / int_da19c62a | comment |
Leave No Survivors: Joe, unlike Kong from the previous version who have a best friend for backup, instead prefers to hire local small-time pickpockets or criminals as local help. When the assassination is complete, Joe then offs his new helper before moving on to the next mission. | |
