All Men Are Perverts: Subverted with Blackbird. The mafia girl at the beginning thinks the Professional Killer Blackbird, after finishing his job killing someone else that she was aware of, disturbs her while she's showering because he very blatantly wants to sneak a peek. Instead he shoots her in the head for having seen his face. Played straight with Ritchie. When he and Blackbird invade the Colsons' home in the climax, Richie forces Carmen to strip down to her underwear, lecherously compliments her figure and indicates that he's going to assault her. He is eventually stopped by Blackbird, who kills him.

Affably Evil: Blackbird is a Professional Killer, but when he's not on duty he's a somewhat easy fellow to get along with. Even when he has a reason to kill he's fairly conservative and is typically courteous to his victims.
