What are some more?
The call is coming from INSIDE the house!
[I'd add any old horror cliche, one reason I rarely watch them]
The serial killer who is only seen from behind in a hoodie/ballcap, or never actually seen up close just walking behind their victims in the dark is....a woman!
The mole in the spy movie has been the boss all along.
Shootouts/standoffs where everyone dies at the end but the hero. Like, nobody else limps off with a shoulder wound or glancing scalp hit?
The girl who just needs her hair done, contacts, and a nice dress to look amazing.
The hooker with a heart of gold.
The driver in a bank heist who is shocked, shocked to find out there ended up being shots fired inside.
The profiler is as crazy as the killers he's trying to catch.
All the female bonding/comedies with the heroine, the funny/overweight girl, the shallow pretty one and the uptight rich one.
Any sophisticated bomb that can be defused by: cutting a wire, resetting the clock, taking the batteries out.
Any bank manager who is told, 'If you push the alarm, I'll shoot you,' followed by him pushing the alarm and getting shot in the face.
Meet me at the clock in Grand Central Station/top of ESB.
The heist expert who barely agrees to do...just one last job....with people he doesn't know. Shouldn't he be loaded with riches if he's an incredibly great thief?
Followed by the gang's leader telling his crew, 'We'll kill him after and keep his share of the loot."
Any existence of an evil/good twin as a deus ex machina. Does not apply to The
The country's nuclear codes being easily obtainable through some simple ruse.
