This makes the conflict especially poignant. He has a goal, and he will do anything possible to make it a reality. Agent Smith in The Matrix is a great villain simply because he is unfazed even by death. Will do anything to reach his/her/its goals.The audience needs to believe that the villain has reasons for his/her behavior other than "they are evil."
They cannot be easily beaten, and usually have the upper hand for the majority of the movie. Good villains bring out the best in your hero by amplifying the action and tension, so don't just throw in a generically evil Russian or murderous alien without trying to make your villain unique. For evidence, look no further than Star Wars and its arguably most famous character, Darth Vader.
A good villain is the secret weapon of a great action movie. Iron Man/Captain America, Ethan Hunt, Danny Ocean).Ĭome up with a worthy villain. Still, all of these movies still have 1-2 central characters that the audience can follow and bond with (ie. You can write groups of heroes too, as evidenced by The Avengers, Mission Impossible, and Ocean's 11.This is why John McClain is just an everyday cop on Christmas vacation, why many good heroes always seem to have a sense of humor, and all of Tarantino's action stars spend a scene or two just chatting with friends about pop culture. You might ask how a super spy is relatable to the average person, but there is always a way. In general the more specific the need, the better the movie. It could the abduction of a child ( Taken), or the desire to save the world and do their duty, (every Bond movie ever). They will find a way to defeat the bad guy, and generally act calm under pressure. People love the main character in these movies, so make sure we love yours. A lot of the popular action movies are character driven, (Bond, Kill Bill, Die Hard, The Hunger Games, etc), which is why they get so many sequels. They dictate what "kind" of action movie you're watching (spy, heist, war, sci-fi, Western, etc.), the setting, and the general plot of the movie. The action movie hero or heroine is the core of your movie.
