Die Hard spawned an entire sub-genre of the everyman trapped in a confined setting, systematically taking out minions one by one. He’s not a soldier; he’s not a body-builder. He’s a schlubby New York cop trying to spend Christmas with his kids (impeccably played by Bruce Willis). Up against one of the most charismatic villains of '80s and '90s in t...
Colin Firth makes a surprisingly good action star, and Kingsman makes for an excellent spy thriller parody. The movie pokes fun at spy and secret agent tropes, like cartoonish villains, secret weapons, martinis, and explosive action set pieces. Firth’s Galahad is no slouch throughout the movie, easily taking down thugs off the street. It’s during t...
In a spoof of comics and superhero movies, with several tongue-in-cheek references, Kick-Ass manages to be both badass and starkly sincere in its best moments. None of the characters have actual superpowers, but that doesn’t stop Chloë Grace Moretz’sHit-Girl from being a terrifically efficient one-woman army (or one-girl army, instead). RELATED:The...
Liam Neeson has a very particular set of skills, and he’s unafraid to use them throughout the Taken franchise. Playing an ex-CIA agent, Mills spends the first film tracking down his kidnapped daughter and the people holding her captive as part of an underground trafficking ring. The last two entries of the franchise pale in comparison to the intens...
All of Bruce Lee’s films of his tragically short career deserve the praise they have received but Enter the Dragon, Lee’s final film before his death, is his crowning achievement and is regarded as one of the best action films of all time. Lee’s character, “Lee,” is recruited to help uncover a drug trafficking ring in a hybrid spy-action thriller t...
Rambo is synonymous with the trope of a one-man army. Over-the-top effects, Sylvester Stallone's body-builder physique, peak '90s one-liners, and crazy stunts defined the Rambo franchise. They continued to sell the image of the ideal action movie hero look until Die Hardbrought some variety. RELATED: 10 Best Training Montages in Movies First Blood ...
Keanu Reeves has more than enough experience playing a one-man army as Neo in The Matrixmovies, but John Wick has the brutal efficiency of a regular human far from being “the One.” Wick is an ex-hitman trying to keep his head down when his old life comes to drag him back into the fray for silky smooth stunts, action-packed set pieces, and excellent...
Charlize Theron is another actor who’s no stranger to being an army of one. Her role in The Old Guardas an un-killable killing machine is equally entertaining, but for entirely different reasons. Broughton is an MI6 agent tasked with retrieving a list of compromised secret agents on the eve of the fall of the Berlin Wall. The fight choreography is ...
Kill Bill’s hyperbolic action scenes, from its choreography and stunts to makeup and effects, combine to make an incredibly memorable and entertaining film. In the middle of it all is Uma Thurman, playing the one-woman army simply known as “The Bride” out for revenge against Bill for his attempted murder of her and her unborn child. RELATED: 10 Gre...
He’s taken on a literal Army of Darkness to protect primitive screwheads with a chainsaw for a hand, a boomstick, and a slew of one-liners. Bruce Campbell’s take on the character is a perfect balance of taking himself just seriously enough while also being massively over-the-top. Throughout the franchise, Ash is the ever-reluctant hero facing hoard...
A list of the most badass and memorable one-person armies in action movies, from John McClane to Hit-Girl. See how they take on villains, minions, and zombies with style, wit, and skill.
