Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })A suspenseful high tension thriller starring Roy Scheider, and Adam Baldwin about a boy that's been kidnapped by two mismatched hitmen. The boy tries to put them at each other's throats while being driven to their employers, possibly to be killed. Cohen, an older no nonsense, straight laced, professional becomes increasingly irritated with his partner Tate, a young, brutish, hot tempered, psychopathic killer. When their prisoner uses unnatural guile and resourcefulness to play them off against each other the movie becomes filled with edgy, suffocating tension. Written and directed by Eric Red, who also brought us Near Dark and The Hitcher.

Boring, but Practical: Cohen's method. And ironically the thing that screws him and Tate over in the end.

Balance of Power
 Cohen and Tate / int_7d44b017
comment
Balance of Power: Possibly why Cohen & Tate was forced to work with each other so they can compensate for each other's personality, flaws, strengths, and weakness. Cohen balance out Tate's hotheadedness, Tate balances out Cohen's age, and physical weakness.

comment
Do Not Taunt Cthulhu/Tempting Fate: Travis does this A LOT to Tate. But this is part of his gambit to get the tension between Tate and Cohen to build up. As he knows Cohen won't allow Tate to hurt him before they get to their employers.

Deadpan Snarker: Cohen. Actually the only one in the movie with a bit of sarcasm.
