Heroic BSoD: Bryce goes through one barely two minutes into the prologue. When his client suffers a sudden case of death by sniper rifle bullet through the head, everyone including Bryce's own bodyguard team immediately bolts with various degrees of panic. Only Bryce doesn't move at all - he keeps staring at the blood-splattered plane window, apparently unable to comprehend that his perfect plan turned out to have at least one fatal flaw. | |

The Hitman's Bodyguard / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: Two instances happen within minutes of each other while Bryce and Kincaid are travelling across the English countryside. Bryce starts texting "no problems so far" to Amelia while Kincaid is taking a leak. He hasn't even sent it when he's forced to notice Kincaid's sudden absence. After the shootout in which Dukhovich's mercs blew up their car and cooked off Bryce's ammo reserves in its trunk, Kincaid calms him down by pointing out the mercs' undamaged, stocked-up vehicle nearby. Cue one more round cooking off, shooting along the street and blowing up this car as well in a single hit. Kincaid finds this Actually Pretty Funny. | |

Break the Haughty: We first see Bryce in his fancy villa putting on fancy clothes, equipping fancy gear and kissing his beautiful girlfriend goodbye before he takes his fancy car to his prestigious, well-paid job. A few minutes and one Time Skip later, he's a washed-up single who lives out of his not-so-fancy car and seems to be the laughing stock of pretty much everyone he ever knew. But, since he has such a massive case of Never My Fault, he's still an egocentric jackass even then. | |

Even Evil Has Standards: The reason Kincaid opposes Dukhovich? He witnessed him order the slaughter of an innocent village. Even before that, he rejected a contract from Dukhovich to kill a political opponent living in exile, as Kincaid only kills bad guys (and presumably he'd recognized the guy is being targeted for opposing a murderous dictator). | |

Hollywood Law | |
The Hitman's Bodyguard / int_3322dd48 | comment |
Hollywood Law: Massive liberties are taken to make Kincaid's testimony the only thing that can bring down Dukhovich. A victim whose family was killed in front of him and was put in a work camp for three years has his entire testimony dismissed out of hand, with the implications that all of the other witnesses so far have had the same. Such testimony would not simply be declared "hearsay" (which, by the way, is when a witness is asked what they were told happened by somebody else, not when they're asked what they themselves witnessed) and struck even if the defense claimed they were merely political opponents doing smear jobs. Somehow Kincaid was the only person to have pictures as proof of Dukhovich's crimes despite this being set in the modern day, and that is the only kind of evidence that seems to work. Also, it is entirely possible to have witnesses testify from remote locations. Kincaid could easily have testified on a video chat from his cell and given the website information from there. This is common practice when the witness might be endangered by coming to the trial. Even disregarding the above, you'd think the court would be a little more lax with the Exact Time to Failure considering that someone racked up a massive body count of officers and agents trying to murder Kincaid en route to the Hague. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
The Hitman's Bodyguard / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Bryce is the trope personified. He is almost completely pragmatic in his decision making, choosing to get things done with minimal fuss (such as picking a practical family car as a getaway vehicle versus a souped up sports car). Kincaid finds this trait to be boring and frustrating even if playing it safe is the smart choice. In one instance, when dealing the group of men hired by Dukhovich to kill Kincaid, Bryce decides to just knock the mooks out so nearby authorities won't notice. Of course, the first thing Kincaid does is blow that plan to smithereens. | |

Bad Boss | |
The Hitman's Bodyguard / int_3cb1d38d | comment |
Bad Boss: Foucher sends over a dozen of his men to their certain death just so he can rake in a tidy cheque from Dukhovich, and he doesn't seem to be particularly torn up about it. Later he does everything he can to try and cover his tracks, including attempting to murder Amelia on the premises of the freaking International Court of Justice in The Hague. His actions as an evil dictator aside, Dukhovich doesn't earn any "Boss of the Year" points himself when he renegs on his deal with Foucher after the latter offered Kincaid up on a silver platter and Dukhovich's men failed to kill him in a prepared ambush. He has the gall to imply that it was Foucher who failed after Dukhovich's men failed at taking out their target. | |

Shut Up, Hannibal!: Dukhovich attempts to break Kincaid by pointing out how many people he has killed and that he will never redeem himself. Kincaid's response is to laugh in his face, tell him he doesn't care about redemption in the slightest, and shove him off of a rooftop for no more reason than because he hurt Bryce. | |

Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: Zigzagged. At first it looks like Bryce is the "Sensitive Guy" due to his logical, calm nature while the hot-headed, violent Kincaid is the "Manly Man". But, when it comes to love, Kincaid is more skilled and thoughtful in that area while Bryce is just dense. | |

Worthy Opponent: Bryce and Kinkaid are mortal enemies who have (often literally) been each other's throats for years, but after taking down Dukovich they it is clear as day they've come to respect (and maybe even like) each other, in spite of their efforts to pretend otherwise. | |

Comedic Sociopathy: Just about every scene with Sonia runs on this since they usually consist of her cussing out police officers, mistreating her cellmate or outright massacring half a dozen guys in a bar (they sexually harassed her beforehand, but her brutality in return is definitely still Disproportionate Retribution) with whatever implements she can get her hands on, all of it Played for Laughs. Her husband Kincaid is no slouch in that department, either. | |

Motive Rant: Dukhovich gives one during the climax, stating his belief that as the "rightful" ruler of his country, no one in the world has authority over him, and he has the right to do whatever he wants. He gets one earlier, too, claiming that everything he does is to "serve the people". Which is somewhat undermined by his willingness to massacre large chunks of "the people". | |

Smug Snake: Dukhovich has two modes: viscerally angry, or quietly smug. He is completely convinced beyond any shadow of a doubt that he will be released and return to power. That makes the look of absolute terror on his face when Kincaid shoots his means of escape down extremely cathartic. | |

Crazy-Prepared: Bryce's MO. He always likes to be prepared for any and all alternative situations. He's never prepared enough with Kincaid around though. When the case turns against Dukhovich, he has his men bomb the building and tries to escape. What, you thought a psychopathic madman was going to play fair? Dukovich isn't putting all his eggs in one basket when it comes to getting free. If killing Kincaid won't work, he has a back-up plan involving a hijacked chopper and a truck loaded with explosives. | |

Police Are Useless: From beginning to end, INTERPOL is utterly useless in stopping the machinations of Dukhovich or his mercenaries from trying to kill Kincaid, though a lot of this can be attributed to Assistant Director Foucher's meddling. There are many moments where the regular INTERPOL officers are utterly useless in dealing with Kincaid or the mercenaries hunting him. | |

Central Theme: You can never be prepared for the unpredictable nature of life, you can either wallow in self-pity because life didn't go the way you want it to or you can pick yourself back up, dust yourself off, and move on. Bryce spent his life covering every base and predicting every step in his line of work, only to have it ruined because Kincaid found his client, Kurasawa, by pure luck and coincidence, Kincaid even points out how unlikely it was for him to actually shoot Kurasawa from over 300 meters away and through a such a small window. | |

Alternative Character Interpretation | |
The Hitman's Bodyguard / int_5e7163c9 | comment |
Alternative Character Interpretation: Discussed in-universe. At face value, the clean-cut, friendly bodyguard-for-hire Bryce is the good guy, and the surly, foul-mouthed, assassin-for-hire Kincaid is the bad guy. But Kincaid points out to Bryce that a lot of the people he's hired to protect have done evil things, and Kincaid is often hired to kill those same kinds of people. Bryce later retorts that he isn't the one who chose a career where he actively chooses to kill people, positing that murder is amoral even against Asshole Victims. The film doesn't decidedly support either side, just uses these arguments to make Bryce rethink his black-and-white views of his line of work. | |

Spanner in the Works: Bryce works hard to try to ensure his protection missions go smoothly, but Kincaid is a factor he constantly can't predict throughout the film. In act three of the film he finally gives up on trying to predict what Kincaid's going to do and just follows behind him to cover his six. It even turns out that what happened in the prologue was one of these. Bryce predicted and compensated for everything that could possibly go wrong while transporting Kurosawa, except Kincaid, by sheer dumb luck, being on a rooftop within rifle shot of Kurosawa's plane, having set up there with the intention of killing some other rich and powerful bad guy, and happened to recognize Kurosawa. | |

Grey-and-Gray Morality | |
The Hitman's Bodyguard / int_7335ffa9 | comment |
Grey-and-Gray Morality: This is the case between Kincaid and Bryce. On the one hand, Kincaid is an assassin who had killed hundreds of people with no remorse, but all of his victims definitely deserved it. On the other, Bryce is a professional bodyguard who has saved hundreds of people from assassination, but most of his clients are unsavory people like crime lords and corrupt officials who have the money to pay for his services. | |

The Hitman's Bodyguard / int_7374ab13 | comment |
Once More, with Clarity: Two setups with a unified conclusion: The film's opening ends with Kurosawa getting shot through the window of his plane, though who shot him isn't revealed. Near the beginning of the second act, Kincaid reveals he achieved a 300-meter shot through a small opening, though what he shot and what he shot through aren't revealed either. Near the end of the second act, Kincaid then reveals that his 300m narrow-window shot was the same shot that killed Kurosawa. | |

Price on Their Head: To prevent Kincaid from testifying against him, Dukhovich puts a hit out on him. He's forced to stay with Bryce after his transport convoy is attacked because of the price on his head. | |

Kincaid has a tendency to start laughing about damn near everything that nobody else finds even remotely funny, much to the frequent irritation and exasperation of whoever witnesses it (usually Bryce). Played for Laughs, of course. | |

Technical Pacifist: Though Bryce is willing to kill when there's no other choice, for the most part he prefers to take out enemies non-lethally, either with Tap on the Head fisticuffs or Only a Flesh Wound shots. Kincaid, in contrast, more straightforwardly just shoots his enemies dead. | |

Armor-Piercing Question | |
The Hitman's Bodyguard / int_7b6e47a5 | comment |
Armor-Piercing Question: When Kincaid and Bryce get into a moral discussion over the former's crimes, Kincaid asks Bryce if the former is bad because he kills shady people or if Bryce is the bad one because he protects shady people. Bryce counters by asking how thoroughly Kincaid researched his targets. Kincaid asks the same question back, to which Bryce points out that he doesn't kill his targets. Kincaid fires off another one near the end when he tells Bryce about all the things he did in order to rekindle Bryce's relationship with Amelia. Bryce of course rebuffs him, saying he doesn't need any help. Kincaid just laughs and asks him to reflect on how much of a mess Bryce's love life was before he intervened. | |

Establishing Character Moment: Dukhovich murders a man's wife and child in front of him in cold blood for daring to speak up against him. Our villain, ladies and gentlemen. Kincaid, on the other hand, endangers his own chances of getting released in order to ensure his wife is released from jail. Bryce is introduced flashing back to his greatest failure before cutting back to present day, where he has lost his status as a high-class bodyguard, is pissing into a juice bottle, and living out of his car. All which precede him extracting his client out of his home while revealing that he had taken care of all incoming assailants, figured out that the client's car was rigged with explosives, and saved the client's dog. Sonia debuts doing yoga in a prison cell while forcing her terrified cellmate to stand in one corner facing the wall the whole time. Then she takes a phone call from Darius and begins yelling and cursing at him. Upon hearing him wince from removing a bullet from his leg, however, she stops and asks if he's okay. | |

After the shootout in which Dukhovich's mercs blew up their car and cooked off Bryce's ammo reserves in its trunk, Kincaid calms him down by pointing out the mercs' undamaged, stocked-up vehicle nearby. Cue one more round cooking off, shooting along the street and blowing up this car as well in a single hit. Kincaid finds this Actually Pretty Funny. | |

If there's a quick and easy solution, he'll take it without a second thought, consequences be damned, which results in him leeroying Bryce's plans on a regular basis. Hilarity Ensues. At one point Bryce and Kincaid are trapped in a building with both the police and the villain's hitmen closing in. Bryce is planning to evade the hitmen by taking a different exit route, when Kincaid decides to take matters into his own hands and jumps in to shoot all of them quickly. Bryce says, "Well done. Guess what happens now?" and cut to the police yelling "Shots fired!" and immediately storming the building. | |

A-Team Firing: Kincaid spends most of the movie taking down whoever he shoots at with a few well-placed shots or even one at a moment's notice, but when he's running after Dukhovich, nearly everything barely misses (aside from just one shot grazing his shoulder) until he has Dukhovich cornered. One could possibly attempt to explain it by how Kincaid was either standing still or much closer for all of his other shots in the movie otherwise. | |

Foreshadowing: Kincaid claims if Bryce is such a good agent, he needs to be willing to take a bullet to keep his target safe. Bryce gets shot tackling Kincaid to keep Dukhovich from shooting him. | |

The Hitman's Bodyguard / int_9d17b859 | comment |
Made of Iron: Kincaid suffers a metric ton of debilitating injuries that should've put him out of commission individually (worst of all being shot in the leg barely ten minutes into the story), but none of them even slow him down for long, and he continues to perform impossible athletic feats regardless. Bryce doesn't get it quite as bad, but he, too, doesn't let a windshield ejection (from which he rolls and immediately gets back up to berate Kincaid before running from incoming fire), Cold-Blooded Torture and various other injuries keep him from fulfilling his mission. Ivan takes it to a stunning extreme by continuing to fight with a huge nail shot into his forehead and a frickin' axe head lodged in his belly. It takes strangling him with a heavy chain and then putting three bullets through his chest to finally put him down for good. | |

Tension-Cutting Laughter | |
The Hitman's Bodyguard / int_9d589fc3 | comment |
Tension-Cutting Laughter: One of Kincaid's defining traits. Whenever he and someone else reach a tense standoff in a conversation, chances are very good he'll suddenly burst out laughing for no apparent reason. Since he's played by Samuel L. Jackson, it's almost impossible to not crack up as well when it happens. | |

Warrior Poet: In contrast to the disillusioned, cynical, and ignorant Bryce (who is willing to protect murderers and tyrants for money), Kincaid is an unapologetic romantic who is sentimental to a fault, sharp of wit and philosophy, capable of surprising eloquence in word and song (at one point improvising a jazz song out of a random comment he made about how "nobody gets out [of life] alive"), all wrapped in an ironclad sense of honor (only killing monsters who have it coming, no-one else). | |

Shout-Out | |
The Hitman's Bodyguard / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: This film's publicity campaign milked every reference to The Bodyguard that it could, using Whitney Houston's rendition of "I Will Always Love You" in trailers and recreating The Bodyguard's iconic poster in minute detail. The climax takes place at a courthouse and the villain causes a disturbance, followed by him shooting at a protagonist causing another character to take the bullet for him, then the protagonist chases the villain on the courthouse's rooftop and eventually corners him with the villain attempting to taunt the protagonist, only for the protagonist to shove the villain off the roof to his death in revenge for his friend, and the villain lands on a car below. Sound familiar? The Japanese client Bryce fails to protect in the opening is named Kurosawa. | |

If We Get Through This… | |
The Hitman's Bodyguard / int_c973fe1d | comment |
If We Get Through This…: Before going to the courthouse, Bryce takes the time to call Amelia to say that he forgives her for causing his client in the opening to get killed and ruining his life; Amelia proceeds to curse at him and tell him to hurry up. Then, later, after getting nearly tortured to death, Bryce calls Amelia again, more apologetic and humble for blaming her for every bad thing that happened to him after his client was killed, especially since it turns out Kincaid was responsible; Amelia still is indifferent and just wants Kincaid at the trial. When the fate of a piece of human garbage being punished is determined on the sole testimony of a man being in a courtroom, alive, it really isn't a good time to try to patch things up with your ex. In fact, Amelia and Bryce are only able to do that at the near end, when Dukhovich is killed. Though it's also implied that Bryce wanted to let her know his regrets in case he doesn't survive. | |

Bulletproof Human Shield: Towards the end, Bryce uses a mook to shield himself when The Dragon unloads his pistol into him. The bullets actually end up going straight through the mook anyway, but Bryce ends up unharmed because he was also using a steel lunch-tray as a second layer of protection. | |

Torture Technician: Dukhovich has a personal one, a fearsomely tattooed, bearded brute named Goran with an apparent penchant for Electric Torture. Bryce is interrogated by him to get information about where Kincaid is. When Kincaid himself suddenly shows up to free Bryce, Goran suffers a well-deserved Karmic Death by being electrocuted to death with the very same implements he just used on Bryce. | |

Tattooed Crook: Kincaid has tattoos on the back of his head and on both hands. He's also a professional killer. His wife Sonia doesn't hesitate to brutally murder several men that were harassing her, and she also happens to rock some tats. Goran, Dukhovich's personal Torture Technician, is tattooed all over and thus makes both of the above look harmless in comparison. | |

Going Commando: The first thing Kincaid does when he wakes up from blood loss-induced unconsciousness is bitch about the "hipster" clothes Bryce stuffed him into, but most of all he takes offence at the fact he's now wearing skivvies because that's not the way things are meant to be as far as he's concerned. It crops up again a bit later when he tries to take a leak with his hands cuffed and complains about it being much more difficult because of his unwanted briefs. | |

Insistent Terminology: Bryce insists that he was a "Triple-A Rated Executive Protection Agent" before the job that went south. Numerous characters mockingly reply that isn't a thing, and the opening sequence seems to imply it's something he made up as a marketing angle; it's left ambiguous if it's an official term or not. | |

The Alleged Car: The movie takes great pleasure in heaping scorn on the Ford Focus C-Max Bryce keeps choosing over much cooler cars like a Jaguar XF. Then the frantic chase through The Hague happens and the movie makes a 180 by letting that humble C-Max survive an incredible amount of abuse from stuff it was never meant to endure. By the end it's completely wrecked but still serviceable enough to get the protagonists to their final destination. D'awww... | |

Brick Joke: While Sonia and Darius are talking on the phone, she claims he forgot their anniversary. They get cut off before he can answer. In the last scene, she is appeased because he broke out prison to avoid missing their anniversary. Bryce keeps annoying Kincaid with his demands that he buckle up every time they're in a car. The one time Bryce himself doesn't follow this rule, he's promptly ejected through the windshield when Kincaid crashes their ride. Kincaid being who he is, he doesn't waste a second poking fun at his unwanted companion. | |
