The Big Guy: Leary who at one point throws Harry over the van.Ballistic Discount: When Chris grabs one of the assault rifles to test and loads it with live ammunition, Ord pulls out his sidearm and informs the group as a precaution in case Chris tries to pull this.It's why Martin joined Justine to rob the deal. Only Chris, Frank, and maybe Ord fully avert this. Special mention goes to Gordon for sadistically trying to murder Justine, Martin for setting up the double-cross, Vernon for shooting Justine in the back and in general being a terrible boss, Stevo for sexually assaulting Harry's cousin and then taunting him over it, and Harry for starting the whole fucking shootout over an argument with Stevo. Asshole Victim: Almost everybody who dies.By the end of the movie, Justine is the only survivor. Anyone Can Die: As soon as shots start firing, it's not long before people start dying.He eventually just collapses as a delayed reaction to his injury. Martin is shot in the head, with his brains leaking out, but rouses himself to go on a delirious rampage through the warehouse, shouting, "I'm not shooting at you!" as he fires on random people and, at one point, asks everyone to wait while he reloads.Stevo spends the second half of the film drifting in and out of consciousness.Despite this, they are the most professional, sane, and moral individuals in the whole film. Affably Evil: Ord and Chris, one of whom is an arms dealer, and the other of whom is a terrorist.Always Save the Girl: Chris's default setting, particularly for Justine.That and the sheer number of times some of them end up getting shot and just keep going is darkly funny. Amusing Injuries: Maybe not where they're injured, but the characters' reactions to getting shot are pretty humorous.
When the henchmen turn out to have an outstanding dispute, the deal dissolves into a running, inept gunfight.
