{{quote| ''Who are you? How did you get involved?''<br />
''I just answered my phone.'' }}
 
Line 22:
* [[Can You Hear Me Now]]: Subverted, the movie uses the facts of cell phone use realistically (though of course dramatically.)
* [[Chekhov's Skill]]: Jessica is a biology teacher, which means she {{spoiler|knows exactly which artery to cut to kill a man in less than a minute.}}
{{quote| {{spoiler|'''Jessica:''' Tenth grade biology. Brachial artery... pumps 30 liters of blood a minute. There's only five in the human body. I'm sorry.}} }}
* [[Confiscated Phone]]: When his battery is abut to die, Ryan buys a cell phone charger at gunpoint in order to obtain instant service.
* [[Creative Closing Credits]]: Edited into every cellphone screen that appeared in the movie.
Line 34:
* [[Honor Before Reason]]: Lampshaded by the fact that the Chinese character on Ryan's arm is read as "honor" and/or "loyalty", the defining traits of this otherwise ''completely'' ordinary boy.
* [[Hypocritical Humour]]: Ryan while driving yells for a girl to get off her cell phone and concentrate on the road. All the while he's talking to Jessica.
{{quote| "Get off your cell phone! Concentrate on the road! IDIOT! *to Jessica* You still there?!"}}
* [[Improbable Aiming Skills]]/[[Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy]]: Officer Mooney ALWAYS gets the shot, the Bad Guys are lucky to graze his neck. Though it is a bit subverted as the Bad Guys are always firing on guys who have cover and/or are moving and Mooney fires several shots and usually only gets one, but he is waiting for the right shot instead firing blindly, so he has time to aim and plan.
* [[Insistent Terminology]]: "It's a day spa!"
