 Evil Sounds Deep: Averted; the villain talks in a somewhat prissy voice when making his demands, to hide his identity.

 Crapsack World: The shipping line would have gone broke years ago if it weren't for a large government subsidy, the ship's captain is having an affair with one of the passengers, the South Asian steward has been on the receiving end of racism his whole life, the bomb disposal team is overworked and underpaid, the cops don't have enough of the proper resources, and the weather on the cruise is miserable.

 Blatant Lies: When the passengers have to Abandon Ship in very bad weather, a member of the crew assures them they'll soon be picked up. An American politician (being a Consummate Liar) tells him he's full of it.

 Foreshadowing: Early in the film, a member of the bomb disposal unit named Charlie mentions to his boss Fallon that he's passed on an opportunity to take a different job. Later, while both Charlie and Fallon are disarming two separate bombs, Fallon quips, "Haven't I told you about death? It's nature's way of saying you're in the wrong job." Shortly thereafter, Charlie's bomb goes off, killing him.
