    [Movies] Looking for movies

    Hello there,

    I personally love to watch movies where one person has a far more advanced skillset than any other person

    For example:
    - Taken
    - The Grey
    - Hitman
    - Batman movies

    These are 2 movies where Liam Neeson has far more superior skills than anyone else in the movie.

    Is there anyone that knows any other movies where this is the case?


    Thanks in advance

    Maybe A Perfect Getaway?

    Not quite sure what other kind of movies to recommend tbh, it's quite specific XD.

    Léon: The Professional. It's one of my favorite movies ever. It's about a hitman and it has Gary Oldman in it so you automatically know it's gonna be awesome.

    "Ong bak" and "The Warrior King" come to mind. Also a couple of Korean movies called "City Of Violence" and "The Man From Nowhere". Also have you checked out Unknown? Another great Liam Neeson film

    I'd agree with those, you'd probably also like the Die Hard movies, and Oceans Eleven if you can stand the skills being spread across 11 people :P

    Warrior? MMA movie. The dude Tom Hardy plays could sort of be viewed that way, at least for a while.

    That film is awesome and so are the others that follow! Donnie Yen is up there with some of my favourite action movie stars.

    Yes, a lot of the HK and Chinese action movies are amazing. And besides the actors, the cinematography of some of the newer movies from there is amazing as well. For a long time everything except the fighting was a little cheesy but it improved a lot.

    Also, I second Leon, a must see.

    Law Abiding Citizen (Although the ending is horrible), and The Usual Suspects come to mind.

    The Mechanic is also a pretty good action flick. The main character plots his assassinations to the point where he can get in and out and make it look like an accident.

    I watched "The Mechanic", "Unleashed" and "Law abiding citizen" and I must say they were quite good.

    They weren't the best movies I've seen but they were worth my time

    Thanks for all of the help
    Keep it coming guys
