Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Also known as Another Meltdown.The Blacksheep Affair is a 1998 action movie starring Vincent Zhao (then being groomed by the studios to become a suitable replacement for Jet Li, since Li is making his move to Hollywood for Lethal Weapon 4), Shu Qi, and directed by Dante Lam.Yim-Dong (Zhao), a Special Agent and Military Officer from China, is demoted of his duties for acting like a hothead in a hijacking rescue attempt and reassigned to the fictional European nation of Lavernia. Upon his arrival, Yim reunites with his ex-girlfriend and old flame Chan Pun (Shu Qi) and his best friend and former comrade, Hung, but on the way stumbles into a public assassination commited by terrorist mastermind and cult leader Keizo Mishima, who intends to take over Lavernia and wipe out populations of the country in a misguided attempt to prove himself as the ultimate disciple of Christ.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })While a success on its release, and making Vincent Zhao a popular celebrity in the late 90s (together with his role as Wong Fei-Hung in the Once Upon a Time in China sequels, where Zhao is The Other Darrin), however Zhao's career would only take a downturn with his next movie, the Star-Derailing Role in the exploitative and tasteless Body Weapon which ends up condemning him into television drama roles and low-budget films until True Legend (2010). note And then, True Legend bombed So much for becoming the next Jet Li! Still, Vincent Zhao delivers asskickings by the plenty and is undeniably charismatic and extremely watchable in the whatever few movie roles he had taken. | |

Put Down Your Gun and Step Away: The Mexican Standoff between Yim, who had Keizo as his hostage, and the terrorists, who had the embassy’s staff as their hostages, quickly turns into this. When the terrorist kills a hostage to intimidate Yim, Yim responds by quickly killing a nearby terrorist before turning his gun back to Keizo, faster than any of them can respond. | |

Railroad Tracks of Doom: Yin vs. Keizo on the subway tracks inevitably had both of them nearly flattened by an incoming train, where they had to push themselves against the walls of the tunnel as an incoming train thunders past – while still punching at each other. The fight quickly culminates into Keizo clinging to the back of the train as it passes, and Yim clinging to Keizo’s leg. | |

Conspicuously Public Assassination: Keizo Mishima’s first scene had him and his henchmen killing a European ambassador and all the ambassador’s bodyguards, by stabbing them silently or slashing their throats, while a public rally is going on. Nobody except Yim noticed what they are doing, and the scene is too noisy for anybody else to hear the ambassador’s men calling for help before getting killed. | |

Crystal Dragon Jesus: A rather sinister version with Big Bad Keizo, who believes himself to be a messenger of Christ and is assigned to exterminate all "non-believers". To hammer the point in even further, one scene depicting Keizo in prison had him using his handcuffs to carve a portrait of Jesus on a crucifix on the wall behind him! | |

Deadly Dodging: During the chase between the terrorists and the van Yim and Hung are on, a terrorist tries firing a rocket launcher at the front of the van (whose windshields are smashed), while another enemy vehicle is pursuing them from behind. Thinking quickly, Yim decides to kick open the van’s back doors, allowing the rocket to go through the van’s windows, through the back, and instead blow up the pursuing vehicle. | |

Symbolic Baptism: Keizo often believes himself to be an incarnation of Jesus, and commits sins in the name of Christ. His demise, a fatal kick to the neck from Yim before falling a couple of storey down through a glass window and into an underground pool, seems quite reminiscent of baptism. | |

Hold the Line: The other bodyguards besides Yim did a pretty good job holding off terrorists when their vehicle chase ends up on a bridge, allowing Yim to drag Keizo to the embassy while they valiantly fend off attacking terrorists. While Yim is busy fighting Keizo in the climax, Hung on the other hand holds off Keizo’s mooks. And did a pretty good job taking names too. | |

Match Cut: Yim, watching a little girl frolicking around with her parents while waiting for their train, with the next scene being a Happy Flashback of a matching scene where Chan, his childhood friend, dancing around at a beach. | |

Powder Keg Crowd | |

Powder Keg Crowd: The civilians of Lavernia. After a montage of bombs being triggered by Keizo’s minions, we cut to a whole wave of Lavernian civilians protesting in the streets, attacking police officers, burning vehicles, and trying to abduct Chan, who is just trying to get away from the chaos. | |

Public Bathhouse Scene | |
The Blacksheep Affair / int_fa9288ad | comment |
Public Bathhouse Scene: One takes place between Keizo and a bunch of European mobsters in a Turkish-style bath, where the mobsters, having a beef with Keizo, tries to put him through Water Torture while one of the mobsters pulls down his towel and try to sodomize Keizo for the fun of it. Keizo instead does a back kick on the mobster’s naked crotch ( OUCH!!! ) and delivers a Curb-Stomp Battle on all his opponents. | |
