Only up through Under Siege 2. After that he became Steven "cake eatin'" Seagull.

The Limey starring Terrence Stamp as an old English criminal you do not want to get on the bad side of.

Blasphemer! He'd eat you alive and poop you out like a 12-pack of Diet Dr. Pepper.

Ok these are more "underdog" type stories, but, their characters are total badasses either way.

Big Trouble in Little China. Kurt Russell kicked ass...or was his ass kicked??? Doesn't matter, just watch it.

Rambo.

Predator. Marines go medieval on an alien. Can't get any more tough than that.

Kill Bill. How about a tough gal?

Kill Zone aka Sha Po Lang. Donnie Yen and Sammo Hung square off.

Death Wish. They made a bunch of them and it's been along time since I've seen them but I remember the first 3 or so being pretty good.
