Fight Club, don't know if that fits the criteria
Death Wish series, but 3 is probably the most badass type of them

Dirty Harry, Magnum Force and The Enforcer

Not a movie but the entire series of Person of Interest.

Not quite vigilante, since one of the guys is technically an undercover cop ...

but otherwise, an excellent action movie with great stunts: District B13
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0414852/
Luc Besson wrote the screenplay.
Piere Morel directed this.

Think Fifth Element meets Taken, but with the casting being used for finding stuntmen/freerunners rather than actors ....

Anyhow, its one of my "guilty pleasure" movies, I like a lot.

Also, double bonus points for the Hobo with a Shotgun mention ...

Cool Hand Luke is more of a rebel than a vigilante, but even so Paul Newman is awesome and so is that movie.

Came here to make sure Payback was listed, glad I wasn't disappointed. Boondock Saints, definitely.
