Running Gag: Will Ryo Saeba ever get to eat something?. Pac Man Fever: An extremely minor example, but while Ryo gets knocked into the Street Fighter II arcade machine, the sound effects and music that follow are from the SNES version, which is noticeably different (though more familiar with those who grew up on the SNES version). only for the hungry Ryo to see a chicken drumstick. 
Meat-O-Vision: Carrie tries to seduce Ryo by showing her thigh. However, he does show interest in one of the guys. He immediately responds by kicking her away. Not Distracted by the Sexy: One of the ladies attempts to flirt with a henchman. At the end of the fight scene, Ryo compliments Bruce's performance, and Bruce responds in kind (obviously using recycled footage and a dub voice as this was made 20 years after Bruce's death.)

Extreme Sport Excuse Plot: Not the movie itself, but the early scenes in the skatepark.

Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male: Played straight with Kaori towards Ryo."Die Hard" on an X: The main plot takes place on a cruse ship.Denser and Wackier: Many of Jackie Chan's films have comedy in them, but this one takes the zaniness Up to Eleven, with goofy sound effects, gags that would be right at home in a cartoon, and unrealistic effects of attacks (like flying across the room).Death Dealer: The Gambler throws cards and can cut, wound, or maim by kicking them.Death by Cameo: Michael Wong shows up for five seconds as Ryo's old partner who dies in the super-abridged backstory opening before the events of the movie.Dance Battler: Ryo twirls Saeko/Anna around like they're dancing, while firing the gun still holstered to her leg.Colonel Badass: More like Colonel Big Bad, but still.
