My Dad loves Wild West/ Adventure movies, so I saw loads of them as a Kid and one of my favorites has been and still is “Death Hunt” (The named it “Yukon” in Germany) with Charlie Bronson!! Awesome movie, badass actor!

Joe Pesci was truly scarey in both Goodfellas and Casino. He gave Frank Vincent a memorable asskicking/headsmashing in Raging Bull, too.

Marv is freaking awesome. Micky Rourke played the role perfectly.

The biggest badass of them all.

I like Lee Van Cleef, Eastwood, Bronson, Marvin & McQueen. Jean-Claude as well! Hmmm. Reeves too. I’m sure though none of you have seen any of his movies to know what I’m talking about.

Jean Claude was only badass in two of his movies. No Retreat, No Surrender and Double Impact (Where he played twins.)

I agree with you on Double Impact. However, I thought No Retreat, No Surrender sucked. He was badass in Bloodsport though.

Nobody has mentioned Kurgan (Clancy Brown) from Highlander.


how about this guy:

the ultimate movie badass Marv from sin city.

AGREED.

Marv: I’ll stare the bastard in the face as he screams to God, and I’ll laugh harder when he whimpers like a baby. And when his eyes go dead, the hell I send him to will seem like heaven after what I’ve done to him.

BADASS!!!

I thought Denzel Washington in “Man On Fire” played a tough badass. Creasy didn’t flex alot of muscle, but his attitude more than made up for that.[/quote]

yes definately. its one of my favorite movies.
ving was also pretty bad ass in dawn of the dead.

that guy in the notebook was pretty bad ass too…ok just kidding, but the Rock was pretty bad ass in the Rundown. his new ink is pretty sick too

You can’t forget Harvey Keitel, at least in his roles in Reservoir Dogs, Bad Lieutenant, and Pulp Fiction.

Liam Neeson in “Rob Roy”. Toughest guy ever on film. Great movie. Great tough guy who isn’t a thug. Hard as nails. When he crawled inside the dead, bloated cow to escape the English…oh, man. If you haven’t seen it yet, go see it. Liam is a total puss in Star Wars compared to this.

Here’s one for all the hater’s…Bruce Lee.
You can also add Toshiro Mifune and Sonny Chiba to the movie badass list.

Russel Crowe in gladiator, denzel in training day

Beat Takeshi in “Brother”

De Niro in “Heat”…


Second “ultimate movie badass” The Cinderella Man James Bradock.
