!!''Bad Timing'' provides examples of:
* AnachronicOrder: The story is presented entirely out of order, starting with a scene from the middle of the relationship playing under the title credits, jumping to Milena's entry to the hospital at the end of the relationship, and continuing like that for the rest of the film, shuffling the events of the timeline like a deck of cards.
* ConvictionByContradiction: Played with. Inspector Netusil definitely tries to use a couple of these (the station left on in Alex's car radio at the time he picked up Milena, his choice brand of cigarettes found in her apartment) to indict Alex. But Alex calls him out on it:
-->'''Netusil''': (After momentarily losing the thread of his line of questioning) Where was I?
-->'''Alex''': Making incorrect assumptions.
* DestructiveRomance
* EverybodySmokes: Cigarettes are featured in just about every scene in the movie being smoked by nearly every character.
* GaussianGirl: A strange case as it's used in one scene late in the film to accentuate Milena's vulnerability and sadness, not beauty.
* MatchCut: This film depends on these to create narrative unity throughout despite the chaotic timeline.
* NotSoDifferent: Inspector Netusil uses this tact to try and coax a confession out of Alex.
* OohMeAccentsSlipping: Keitel's Inspector Netusil is an Austrian who occasionally speaks with a thick Brooklyn accent.
* [[SirSwearsalot Princess Swears A Lot]]: Milena. [[ClusterFBomb Cluster F Bombs abound in her dialog]].
* RampingShot: A surprising amount for this sort of drama.
