Wrath of Man is a crime thriller film directed by Guy Ritchie, based on the 2004 French film Cash Truck, and starring Jason Statham, Jeffrey Donovan, Josh Hartnett, and Holt McCallany.Patrick "H" Hill (Statham) is a new employee at Fortico Security, an armored truck service that transfers millions of dollars a month and is prime prey for professional criminals. Under the tutelage of "Bullet" (McCallany), H seems to be just another recruit, until he masterfully wipes out an entire team of skilled robbers who hit a Fortico truck.With ruthless efficiency and cold determination, the mysterious H continues to terrorize any potential criminals who target Fortico, intent on righting a wrong from his past for his own dark purposes... no matter what it takes.Standing out as a particularly dark entry in Guy Ritchie's filmography, the film was released internationally on April 22, 2021, and in the United States on May 7. | |

Trailers Always Spoil: The Reveal that H is actually a crime boss named Heargraves out to avenge his son comes at around the halfway point of the film. The trailers, more specifically the red band trailer, completely spoils it. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Wrath of Man / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Noticeably one of the darker entries of Guy Ritchie's filmography, with a constant undercurrent of brutality. While the World of Snark and Snark-to-Snark Combat that's a trademark of his Signature Style is littered throughout the movie, little of it is Played for Laughs like it usually would be. Hill is a Nominal Anti Hero at best and almost every character winds up dead by the movie's end. | |

Papa Wolf: Heargraves. The entire story revolves around him going on one giant Roaring Rampage of Revenge after his son is murdered by a group of bank robbers. It also extends to other children as well, considering that he brutally puts down a group of pedophilic human traffickers and saves their intended victims on principle after becoming aware of their existence. | |

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Bullet, the seemingly upbeat and snarky Fortico employee, is actually an active part of Jackson's gang of robbers. As if to solidify his deceitful nature, during the final shootout, he uses his friendships with fellow guards to lull them into trusting him long enough to murder them all without hesitation. | |

Hidden Depths | |
| Wrath of Man / int_2dc0d2bf | comment |
Hidden Depths: On his first outing, H calms the frantic Dave (who's freaking out over Bullet's capture) by coaching him on what to do, and then ordering him to play along with the robbery for the time being, as he doesn't want to "leave a man behind". When the robbers reveal themselves, H deliberately feigns stupidity to have them drop their guard, then proceeds to eliminate the entire enemy force, saving Bullet's life (and the money) in the process. This is because he's actually an extremely-capable crime boss who's 'dumbing himself down' to get in with the Fortico staff. | |

This also comes to the fore while he's dealing with the pedophilic human traffickers, where he's so calm and collected as he rounds up and mercilessly executes the perpetrators that the only sign of how murderously angry he is at what they've been doing is when he shoots the last one with a few more bullets than necessary. | |

Manipulative Bastard: Heargraves masquerades as "Patrick Hill" and fools pretty much every major character in the story, all to find his son's killer. Bullet plays his part as a lovable, friendly truck guard to a T, successfully being Jackson's inside man and helping his team pull off truck robberies by leaking info. | |

Tranquil Fury | |
| Wrath of Man / int_443b78cd | comment |
Tranquil Fury: Heargraves barely emotes beyond a scowl or raises his voice above Jason Statham's signature Cockney tone as he kills his way to finding Jan. Even when he finally does him in, this doesn't change, calmly ordering him to read out Dougie's cause of death as he re-enacts the exact same fate on Jan himself. This also comes to the fore while he's dealing with the pedophilic human traffickers, where he's so calm and collected as he rounds up and mercilessly executes the perpetrators that the only sign of how murderously angry he is at what they've been doing is when he shoots the last one with a few more bullets than necessary. | |

"Could Have Avoided This!" Plot | |
| Wrath of Man / int_44989f6f | comment |
"Could Have Avoided This!" Plot: All Heargraves had to do was tell his teenaged son to wait fifteen minutes while he drives around the corner to do something real quick. That is literally all he had to do to have prevented his son's murder. There was no reason to bring his son along even if he assumed nothing would go wrong when all it would've taken was an extra fifteen minutes. At least then only he would've gotten shot, and maybe not at all since he only gets shot trying to run towards his son. | |

Cover-Blowing Superpower: H deliberately scored the bare minimum on firearms and athletic tests to avoid suspicion from the other guards, but some are still curious that a well-built man who clearly knows firearms only passed with the bare minimum. After H single handedly manages to ward off multiple robbery attempts with obviously lethal skills, he claims the adrenaline kicked in, but it only furthers the questions. | |

Evil Pays Better: Jackson's crew are all former military who returned and tried to integrate back into society.

| Wrath of Man / int_8b6e8d7 | comment |
Anachronic Order: After a chaotic prologue that depicts an armored truck robbery from a solitary camera, the story jumps into H joining Fortico and his interactions with the rest of the crew. He fends off an attempted robbery with lethal skills at the end of the first act, and the second act then jumps back several months to explain H's motivations, eventually doing Once More, with Clarity to show what he was really doing at Fortico. Then halfway through the second act it jumps back over a year to explain the story of the criminals H is looking for, which then reveals the full details of the truck robbery in the opening scene. The third act is when everything comes together. The movie comes with chapter-based title cards to help keep the audience aware of the shifts. | |

Laser-Guided Karma | |
| Wrath of Man / int_90e31482 | comment |
Laser-Guided Karma: After murdering Dougie and backstabbing his colleagues to steal their money, Jan would ultimately get his comeuppance when a coldly enraged Heargraves breaks into his room, corners and then executes him by shooting him in the exact same manner he used to kill his son. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Wrath of Man / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: As part of the Walking Spoiler, Hill's behavior does not come across as someone who is a capable but unextraordinary security guard — he is able to land headshots under duress, knows to feign weakness to get the enemy's guard down, and seems to botch just enough of his tests to get a merely passing grade. This all makes sense when you realize he's the head of a criminal empire, and is far more capable than he lets on. Early in the film, it looks like H completely botches his marksmanship test. But as an eagle-eyed viewer can see, he hits the target where the lungs, heart, spleen and liver are. After killing the first gang, H goes from corpse to corpse and pulls off their masks. He's obviously looking for somebody, specifically Jan. The second group that attempts to rob H's armored car stop completely and run off once he steps out of the back, clearly recognizing him from somewhere. They're his old gang. | |

Obfuscating Stupidity | |
| Wrath of Man / int_a7aef9ff | comment |
Obfuscating Stupidity: For a character who seems, on the surface, to be very capable material for a security guard, Hill either unintentionally (or deliberately) botches several aspects of his proficiency tests, such as backing into a stack of boxes during a vehicle obstacle. This is because Heargraves (pretending to be Hill) is playing himself up to be just barely capable enough to pass the tests — under fire, he's an incredible marksman. | |

Oh, Crap!: A gang of robbers attack an armored car and force the guards to surrender. They then see H step out and they panic, drop the money and run away. They are working for Heargraves and recognize H as their boss. They have no idea what he is doing dressed as a guard, and are terrified what he might do to them for messing up his plans and pointing guns at him. | |

Nothing particular stands out to support their suspicions, as H intentionally holds himself back for the entry exams and so far had only participated in a transport that goes off without a hitch. | |

Sociopathic Soldier: Two members of Sarge's crew show different forms of this. Brad has failed to adjust to civilian life and is itching for the thrill of a mission, caring little who gets hurt in the process. Jan seems more unstable than anything and has poor impulse control which leads to him murdering Sarge and Bullet to steal the money. Bullet also shows signs of this, given his complete lack of emotion while killing co-workers he personally trained and his failed attempt to double-cross Jan. | |

Red Herring | |
| Wrath of Man / int_dbca2c99 | comment |
Red Herring: When H is introduced to the other guards, they are presented in ways that seem to suggest that one or more of them might be working for the robbers. Some are clearly disgruntled about their job, one seems to have a gambling problem, one appears particularly creepy and another is pissed off about being demoted. The only female guard is not happy about having to always prove that she belongs in the job. One guard suspiciously called in sick when the last robbery took place. In the end only Bullet is working with the robbers and the others are just normal working stiffs not happy about their jobs. After going through every possible gang they can think of, Heargraves' men dig even deeper and interrogate a major figure they would have otherwise not touched. He tells them about a truly evil gang of human traffickers that will kill him if they ever know he mentioned them. The group is not connected to Dougie's death at all. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure | |
| Wrath of Man / int_dca70c44 | comment |
Reasonable Authority Figure: Heargraves' mooks clearly fear that he will blame them for Dougie's death but he recognizes that only he and the killer are to blame. He even outright apologizes to one of his men for adding stress as they go through the list of possible suspects. Everything Terry Rossi says is correct. He's conscientious of the effects of PTSD on his staff and notices that H is suspiciously callous while his own boss and the men just see him as a badass hero. During the final shootout, he desperately tries to talk sense into Hancock, who ignores his advice twice and gets shot twice, the second time fatally. | |
