[Parliament 14239]

Tin pot dictator has grown accustomed to ruling his own little fiefdom.  An upstart group of rebels defy him so he kicks them out of their home.

Rebels stage an insurrection at the homecoming parade.  Their leader goes so far as seducing the dictator’s wife.

I googled a bit and found “Man on Fire” - the Denzel movie is garbage.

It's been sad in many ways but the simplest way to put this is...  You're an idiot.

Besides Man on Fire, Taken, Predator, Commando, True Lies, Unforgiven and all of the Bourne movies I'll add:

The Sons of Katie Elder

El Dorado

Rio Bravo

The Count of Monte Cristo

Atomic Blonde

The Crow

[HiggyBaby 2529]

Man on Fire was great

[Celery Man 20931]

I’m convinced many of you haven’t seen man on fire in 20 years. I agree with most critics that it is not good.

[locodos 5387]

[Stringer 1438]

Blue Eyed Samurai is a new addition to this list.

Also, Man on Fire is dope. Not super well received at the time but extremely rewatchable

seconded that man on fire is eye-rolly.  howeva, i don't think that high cinema is what we are really going for with this genre, else you run real short after john wick and a few others.

Beat me to it. Was just coming to post this one. Great flick.

Sticking with Mel Gibson, how about OG Mad Max?

[aggie08 21482]

Just caught the last half hour of Commando. Fits this thread well.

I love the casting.

"Hey, we need an antagonist who believably served with Arnold in the Army special forces. His equal on the battlefield."

"Best I can do is a hairy, chubby Australian with a porn mustache wearing a chainmail vest."

"Perfect. No notes."

Beekeeper is a solid entry in the genre.

If you haven’t seen the director’s cut, find it. It’s a completely different movie but somehow even more bad ass.

Thanks.  I haven't seen that movie in probably two decades, so the director's cut might not seem all that different.
