YMMV / Faster

• Awesome Music: Particularly "Just Dropped In" by Kenny Rogers and "Short Change Hero" by The Heavy.
• Badass Decay: Killer starts out relatively cool and intimidating but by the end confrontation, he's nothing more than a whining Manchild who wants Driver to acknowledge his "skills."
• Complete Monster: Kenneth "Old Guy" Tyson is the most depraved member of Detective Slade "Cop" Humphries's crew. Introduced recording the murders of Gary Cullen and his crew of bank robbers, Old Guy mockingly tells the remaining crewman, James "Driver" Cullen, to "smile for the camera". In the present day, Old Guy lures a teenage girl into his apartment. Sedating her with a drugged beverage—intent on raping and potentially murdering her on camera as he has done to at least 12 others—Old Guy is interrupted by the arrival of Driver, who confronts him over his involvement in Gary's death, causing Old Guy to beg for mercy.
• Fridge Brilliance: A few times throughout the movie, Cicero would make a revelation about the unraveling plot, to which Cop would reply with a lukewarm "Yeah, maybe." After seeing the entire movie, you realize that he knew those things and was discouraging her from looking further into it and discovering him.
• Tear Jerker: There are multiple moments in the film which are gut-wrenching:
  • Driver reveals the location of his heist crew's loot in a bid to have his brother, Gary, spared by a rival gang. He is shown to be distressed, and he is shown to apologize profusely to Gary, who reassures him. Then, to twist the knife even further, Gary has his throat slit despite Driver's efforts.
  • When the Pastor, a former member of the rival crew who was forced to stand aside during Gary's death realizes that Driver has come to avenge Gary, in an emotionally taxing scene, he faces what he believes to be his impending doom with dignity, asking Driver for forgiveness; when Driver feels he can't forgive the former, the Pastor forgives Driver for what he is about to do, praying that he (the Pastor) be the last victim and that he be free from feelings of vengefulness. Driver spares the Pastor, since he cannot bring himself to kill him.
