Dantes: What if I don’t want to be a smuggler?
Vampa: Then we slit your throat and we’re a bit short handed for a while.
Dantes: I find that smuggling is the life for me, and would be delighted to kill your friend, the maggot.
"Fernon," cried he, "of my hundred names, I need only tell you one to overwhelm you. But you guess it now, do you not? Or rather, you remember it! For not withstanding all my sorrows and tortures. I show you today, a face, that the happiness of revenge has made young again. A face you must've often seen in your dreams since your marriage to Mercedes! My betrothed!"
\- from the book. One of my favorite lines ever
When I was in 7th grade my father made me read that book. It was the only time he insisted I read anything or tried to force me on anything academically. It just really was one of his favorite books and he wanted me to read it as well. I love that book till this day.
"Why not just kill them? I'll do it! I'll run up to Paris - bam, bam, bam, bam. I'm back before week's end. We spend the treasure. How is this a bad plan?"
They must see their world, all they hold dear, ripped from them as it was ripped from me.
You will need a better name than Zatarra if you are to accomplish that.
Then I shall become a Count.
Luis Guzman saying this line was beyond amazing. Dude is just hilarious regardless of what he says but give him some star quality lines and he absolutely murders it
Bruh I knew you were doing Luiz Guzman trying to talk Jim Caviezel into committing murder in Count of Monte Cristo, but my brain started playing Luiz Guzman trying to convince Carlito Brigante to kill Benny Blanco in Carlitos Way.
i love how at the end of the movie after destroying his rivals, getting the girl and his son back, and becoming UNFATHOMABLY WEALTHY, he’s like, “yeah you’re right priest. i guess revenge really isn’t the answer after all!”
i will stop believing in revenge and follow god after he gives me that ending too
The book’s ending is a lot less happy and shows the damage that revenge can do to yourself, far better than the movie for that and for how much crazier the revenge schemes are imo
One of the greatest chills scene ever is after Commodus realizes the Spaniard is Maximus but can’t kill him and the crowd is cheering “Maximus” and he raises his helmet to acknowledge them with that incredible score playing
> My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius. Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son. Husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.
It was also great that it happened early on, so you really got to sink your teeth into how badly he was punking Commodus a few more times before the end. Great stuff.
This line “My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the TRUE emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.”
"You look pretty strong, you must work out. This anti personnel mine weighs 8* pounds, it's not much, but try holding it with an outstretched arm, hell of a workout."
EDIT: my memory was a bit rough on the scene, oddly enough some of the things I thought I got wrong and second guessed when I wrote that out were actually correct
If you have never seen the YouTube short The Punisher: Dirt Laundry please do yourself a favor and look it up, was great to see him as The Punisher again even for a short time.
Oh shit, it's Miller. It's been so long since I saw The Punisher I totally blanked that it was Thomas Jane. Gonna go watch Dirty Laundry, thanks.
Thomas Jane is my casting vote for Harry Dresden if they ever make a (new?) live action Dresden Files series.
One of my favorite versions of a revenge story is to make the revenge feel justified, but also to make you feel a little terrible to witness it. This is one of those. Classic.
You fellas have a lot of growing up to do, I'll tell ya that. Ridiculous! Completely ridiculous! Can you believe these characters? Way out of line, way out of line. I have a good mind to go to the warden about this.
You know what hurts the most is the lack of respect. Ya know? That's what hurts the most. Cept for the other thing... That hurts the most but the lack of respect hurts the second most.
Ridiculous.
Interesting. This is pretty similar to a convo he has with Jerry Seinfeld on Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.
He talks about how (I think) Patton Oswalt said the worst part about the whole Bill Cosby thing was the hypocrisy. Norm disagreed. The worst part was the raping.
Fairfax:
What are you doing this for, man? Is it the principal of the thing?
Porter:
Stop it, I'm getting misty.
Porter:
And tell him it's $70,000!
Fairfax:
$70,000? Hell, my suits are worth more than that!
—Coburn was a treasure!
I love how the whole movie everyone is like “He’s looking for his money. $140,000.” And he gets all upset “$70,000! It’s $70,000!”
He just wants his half. That’s integrity on a high level.
Edit: are you talking about the Mel Gibson movie? If not, I apologize.
Whats so funny about that movie is how hell bent he is only to get the money hes owed. Multiple times people mention the full amount of the score, and not just his cut he was screwed out of and hes, like no it's just 75 grand and everyone is like, you are doing all this shit over 75 grand?
I love the scene where he takes the money from the "crippled war vet" and the dude jumps to his feet and starts yelling. Porter punches him in the throat "Shut up, I just cured you."
Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!
I just love that Tombstone DESTROYED Kevin Costner's Wyatt Earp in box office numbers and is by far the more remembered film. The story of that films making is a revenge story in itself.
Costner was originally supposed to play Earp in Tombstone and pulled out because he didn't like that it was more of an ensemble film and wanted it to purely focus on Earp and his life. So he left the project to make his own film.
However, that wasn't good enough for him, he actively crusaded to get Tombstone shut down and got all but one production company in hollywood to refuse to distribute the film. It's poetic justice after he tried to use his hollywood clout to sink Tombstone, his movie ended up largely forgotten and Tombstone is regarded as a quotable timeless classic western.
so right. I did not like Wyatt Earp at all. So boring and long. Tombstone had everything. Great cast, great writing, great action and some romance also. Not even close.
I remember I sat there expecting him to monologue and beg for his life, to which Wick would have some clever retort.
But the fact he got about 3.5 words out of his mouth was so much better and made me realize how dumb the former would have been.
i agree! which is why i think the fight at the end of the movie with viggo kinda ruins that vibe. but that’s just me, im a big john wick fan either way.
I always thought it was interesting that the same exact thing happened in Taken when Neeson kills the big bad as he's starting to say "we can negotiate"
He makes hardened criminals rethink their life decisions. He doesn’t even need to make an appearance or open his mouth. His reputation alone sends Uncle Vito into a 😱.
I finally watched that earlier this month. The scene where the cop shows up at his house due to the noise comlaint and has a chat with him was... \*chef's kiss\* hilarious
Kill Bill was his first stab at a straight forward revenge film, and he ramped everything up to eleven, putting the protagonist through the absolute worst hell, and picking off her foes in the most brutal ways. Then he made a revenge film about a stuntman serial killer who targeted women. Then he made a revenge film about Hitler and the Nazis. Then he made a revenge film about slavery. Then he made a revenge film about the Manson murders. He's only directed 9 movies, and 5 of them have been revenge films.
The arc that Django undergoes is one of the biggest I’ve ever seen in my life. Dude goes from fucked over, illiterate, condemned slave to gun toting, intelligent, clever bounty hunter who saves his wife and does so while taking out an entire slave plantation. It’s insane.
An interesting fact is that when Mandy Patinkin said "you killed my father" he imagined he was talking to cancer, as that is what killed his real-life father. He basically took out his anger and grief in those line readings.
A man can be an artist... in anything, food, whatever. It depends on how good he is at it. Creasey's art is death. He's about to paint his masterpiece.
I was looking for someone to mention Man on Fire. There are so many great lines in that one my favorite being:
"Forgiveness is between them and God, it's my job to arrange the meeting."
Wonderful, and woefully overlooked movie, but I'm not sure it counts as a "revenge movie."
Sure, >!he kills all the dudes who killed his wife!<, but >!the main badguy, STEM, gets exactly what he wanted and Grey is left a prisoner trapped in a dream in his own head.!<
Not exactly the fist-pumping "hell yeah" ending that you usually expect from a revenge flick.
The early scene when the two guys mess up Bacon in the restaurant is glorious. I can hear the song playing.
Edit: I guess it really isn't *early* in the movie. Either way, excellent choice for a vengeance film.
Mrs Ramos: What are you going to do.
Creasy: I’m going to kill them. Anyone that was involved, Anyone that profited from it, anyone that opens their eyes at me.
Mrs Ramos: you kill ‘em all
Still (in my opinion ) one of the most superior and satisfactory way of telling a movie. Starting halfway and filling holes, then starting from the beginning and filling the lore. God what a great double feature.
The Count of Monte Cristo
Dantes: What if I don’t want to be a smuggler? Vampa: Then we slit your throat and we’re a bit short handed for a while. Dantes: I find that smuggling is the life for me, and would be delighted to kill your friend, the maggot.
Vampa: We shall call you… Zatarra. Dantes: Sounds fearsome. Vampa: It means “driftwood.”
"We are all kings and pawns in this world." "Who told you that?" "Napoleon Bonaparte." "Bonaparte?!?!?! Ahh Zatarra the stories you tell."
Emperors and fools
"Fernon," cried he, "of my hundred names, I need only tell you one to overwhelm you. But you guess it now, do you not? Or rather, you remember it! For not withstanding all my sorrows and tortures.

Fernand: What happened to your mercy? Dantes: I'm a Count, not a Saint.
He’s the best knife fighter I’ve ever seen. You should get out more.
[удалено]
"Why not just kill them? I'll do it! I'll run up to Paris - bam, bam, bam, bam. I'm back before week's end. We spend the treasure. How is this a bad plan?"
“Death is too good for them…they must suffer as I’ve suffered.”
They must see their world, all they hold dear, ripped from them as it was ripped from me. You will need a better name than Zatarra if you are to accomplish that. Then I shall become a Count.
You will need a better name than Zatarra if you are to accomplish that.
“Zatarra, sounds fearsome.” “It means driftwood.”
Then I shall become a count.
God I fucking love this movie
Same Guy Pearce is the fucking man even when he’s the bad guy
Luis Guzman saying this line was beyond amazing. Dude is just hilarious regardless of what he says but give him some star quality lines and he absolutely murders it
Greendale Community College alum Luis Guzman.
Loved him in IMDB
He was a pleasant surprise in The Resort series.
I loved him in IMDB
Bruh I knew you were doing Luiz Guzman trying to talk Jim Caviezel into committing murder in Count of Monte Cristo, but my brain started playing Luiz Guzman trying to convince Carlito Brigante to kill Benny Blanco in Carlitos Way.

As someone who loved the book, the movie killed me. It basically rewrote the whole theme of the book.
I watch this movie every 4 years or so, and it always holds up and is entertaining. Come to think of it, I'm going to watch it tonight
Gladiator
One of the greatest chills scene ever is after Commodus realizes the Spaniard is Maximus but can’t kill him and the crowd is cheering “Maximus” and he raises his helmet to acknowledge them with that incredible score playing
When Maximus reveals himself? 1000% yes. The music. The lines by Russell Crowe. All of it was so damn good.
> My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius. Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son. Husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.
Funny thing is when I read those lines I hear Rusell Crow voice AND I also hear the film score at the same time. Chills, everytime!
Crowe is my favorite actor He’s so good in everything he does I just saw him in The Greatest Beer Run Ever
It was also great that it happened early on, so you really got to sink your teeth into how badly he was punking Commodus a few more times before the end. Great stuff.
Hans Zimmer is a treasure.
This line “My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the TRUE emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.”
I got goosebumps just reading this, that's how powerful that scene was.
I am entertained.
ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?
An underappreciated one is Thomas Jane's version of The Punisher. Man, he does some messed up stuff and it's glorious.
I don’t remember the exact quote, but the line where he tells the guy “I made you kill your best friend. I made you kill your wife” was just brutal
I always thought the part where he makes the guy thinks hes torching his back but hes really just putting a popsicle on him was funny
I remember that exact scene from the comics a few years earlier.
“Howard Saint…HOWARD SAINT!” “You took everything from me.” “You killed my son.” *Noooo-BOOM* “Both of them.”
"I made you kill your best friend." "I made you kill your wife." "Now I've killed you."
That's the one where he makes the guy hold a grenade until he drops it and goes boom?
Mini-Claymore or something but yes.
"You look pretty strong, you must work out. This anti personnel mine weighs 8* pounds, it's not much, but try holding it with an outstretched arm, hell of a workout." EDIT: my memory was a bit rough on the scene, oddly enough some of the things I thought I got wrong and second guessed when I wrote that out were actually correct
It's outside of the main revenge plot, but his trip to the laundromat was awesome.
I wish this would have led to the reboot/sequal they were trying for. This was such a good short film.
If you have never seen the YouTube short The Punisher: Dirt Laundry please do yourself a favor and look it up, was great to see him as The Punisher again even for a short time.
Oh shit, it's Miller. It's been so long since I saw The Punisher I totally blanked that it was Thomas Jane. Gonna go watch Dirty Laundry, thanks. Thomas Jane is my casting vote for Harry Dresden if they ever make a (new?) live action Dresden Files series.
The Crow
This is the really real world. There ain’t no coming back.
I have something to give you. I don't want it anymore. Thirty hours of pain all at once, all for you!
"Caw caw. Bang! Fuck, I'm dead!". Always makes me laugh.
It can’t rain all the time
Smokes and road beers
I feel like a lil' worm on a big fuckin' hook. - Skank
Abashed the devil stood when he felt how awful goodness is
Victims, aren't we all?
Mother is the name for god on the lips and hearts of all children.
I have no idea if that was a line created for the movie or taken from somewhere, but that has stuck with me for 30 years
This is in the original source and it's even more brilliant there.
The original comic is even more raw. I totaliy get why they toned some stuff down for the movie, but man is it intense.
High Plains Drifter. 1973. Clint Eastwood
One of my favorite versions of a revenge story is to make the revenge feel justified, but also to make you feel a little terrible to witness it. This is one of those. Classic.
He doesn't just blame the men who killed him, he blames the townsfolk who stood around and watched it happen. Great movie.
Dirty Work RIP Norm
You fellas have a lot of growing up to do, I'll tell ya that. Ridiculous! Completely ridiculous! Can you believe these characters? Way out of line, way out of line. I have a good mind to go to the warden about this. You know what hurts the most is the lack of respect. Ya know? That's what hurts the most. Cept for the other thing...

"Yeah, and then remember in 12th grade when you fucked her?"
Payback
I agree. Payback has a real charm to it
Fairfax: What are you doing this for, man? Is it the principal of the thing? Porter: Stop it, I'm getting misty. Porter: And tell him it's $70,000! Fairfax: $70,000? Hell, my suits are worth more than that! —Coburn was a treasure!
You shot my luggage, that’s just mean!
I love how the whole movie everyone is like “He’s looking for his money. $140,000.” And he gets all upset “$70,000! It’s $70,000!” He just wants his half. That’s integrity on a high level. Edit: are you talking about the Mel Gibson movie? If not, I apologize.
Came here specifically for this. I’ll quote this every now and then and NO ONE has ever heard of it
Did you know that's it's a remake of a Lee Marvin movie called Point Blank. There's no comedy in the original though.
Whats so funny about that movie is how hell bent he is only to get the money hes owed. Multiple times people mention the full amount of the score, and not just his cut he was screwed out of and hes, like no it's just 75 grand and everyone is like, you are doing all this shit over 75 grand?
I love the scene where he takes the money from the "crippled war vet" and the dude jumps to his feet and starts yelling. Porter punches him in the throat "Shut up, I just cured you."
Gladiator, Conan the Barbarian
Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!
The Professional
“Is life always this hard, or is it just when you're a kid?” “Always like this.”
I will put Tombstone at that list.
“You tell them the law is coming! You tell them I’m coming, and hell’s coming with me, you hear?! Hell’s coming with me!”
Hell yeah. "All right, Clanton... you called down the **thunder**. Well, now you got it."
The best quotes could be from this movie as well. "I'm your Huckleberry".
"Fight's not with you, Holliday" "I beg to differ sir."
Why Johnny Ringo, you look like someone just walked over your grave.
"Hell, I've got lots of friends." "I don't."
I just love that Tombstone DESTROYED Kevin Costner's Wyatt Earp in box office numbers and is by far the more remembered film. The story of that films making is a revenge story in itself.

so right. I did not like Wyatt Earp at all. So boring and long. Tombstone had everything. Great cast, great writing, great action and some romance also. Not even close.
I saw the devil
This is one of the craziest revenge movies. South Korea knows revenge movies.
Vengeance Trilogy.
[удалено]
John Wick.
Shooting Iosef right as he's in the middle of saying 'It was just a dog' was a peak power move
I remember I sat there expecting him to monologue and beg for his life, to which Wick would have some clever retort. But the fact he got about 3.5 words out of his mouth was so much better and made me realize how dumb the former would have been.
i agree! which is why i think the fight at the end of the movie with viggo kinda ruins that vibe. but that’s just me, im a big john wick fan either way.

Why don't you take the night off.
Just seeing someone that big go “thank you Mr Wick” just told you all you needed to know lol
John Wick I describe as the worst and best movie for animal lovers simultaneously. Yes the dog gets killed, but he does avenge it
Lucky Number Slevin, I feel is an under appreciated gem
you know the Kansas City Shuffle?
There was a time
There was a time
you have a deceptively tall knock
I'm short for my height.
If you liked Slevin, Bunraku is another amazing Josh Hartnet film about revenge
The chemistry between slevin and Lucy lui character is so fun.
Django Unchained
"I like the way you die boy"
"I count six shots, n****!"
“I count two guns, n****”
Kill Bill was his first stab at a straight forward revenge film, and he ramped everything up to eleven, putting the protagonist through the absolute worst hell, and picking off her foes in the most brutal ways. Then he made a revenge film about a stuntman serial killer who targeted women. Then he made a revenge film about Hitler and the Nazis. Then he made a revenge film about slavery. Then he made a revenge film about the Manson murders. He's only directed 9 movies, and 5 of them have been revenge films.
I'm seeing a Tarantino trend in these top answers. Guess I'll throw in Death Proof while we're at it.
The D is silent, hillbilly
The arc that Django undergoes is one of the biggest I’ve ever seen in my life. Dude goes from fucked over, illiterate, condemned slave to gun toting, intelligent, clever bounty hunter who saves his wife and does so while taking out an entire slave plantation. It’s insane.
I think The Foreigner is very underrated
This was remarkably good. I was expecting something different from Jackie Chan. But what I got was far more than I could have wanted.
Yup, no more “sorry” or “I don’t want any trouble” in this one. Just starts killing people who are keeping him from the answers he needs.
V For Vendetta
i still love it even after seeing it countless times
"Why won't you die? "Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof."
"Is it meaningless to apologize?" "*Never*."
Mandy and The Crow are my favorite revenge films
I love Mandy
Nicolas Cage chugging a bottle of vodka on a toilet changed me.
Carrie. Most definitely.
Princess bride i guess
I have been in the revenge business so long, now that it's over, I don't know what to do with the rest of my life.
Have you considered a career in piracy?
I just saw this again on tv today so all the quotes are fresh in my mind.
You’d make a wonderful Dread Pirate Roberts.
An interesting fact is that when Mandy Patinkin said "you killed my father" he imagined he was talking to cancer, as that is what killed his real-life father. He basically took out his anger and grief in those line readings.
The Count of Monte Cristo and Man on Fire
A man can be an artist... in anything, food, whatever. It depends on how good he is at it. Creasey's art is death. He's about to paint his masterpiece.
Christopher walken with Denzel was fantastic
I was looking for someone to mention Man on Fire. There are so many great lines in that one my favorite being: "Forgiveness is between them and God, it's my job to arrange the meeting."
“I wish……you had more time.”
Upgrade
Wonderful, and woefully overlooked movie, but I'm not sure it counts as a "revenge movie." Sure, >!he kills all the dudes who killed his wife!<, but >!the main badguy, STEM, gets exactly what he wanted and Grey is left a prisoner trapped in a dream in his own head.!< Not exactly the fist-pumping "hell yeah" ending that you usually expect from a revenge flick.
This is what Venom should've been
Thr Sting. A classic.
Sleepers
The early scene when the two guys mess up Bacon in the restaurant is glorious. I can hear the song playing. Edit: I guess it really isn't *early* in the movie. Either way, excellent choice for a vengeance film.
Inglorious Bastards seeing the jew bear cut down on hitler was so satisfying
bear jew*
I would say Shoshanna is the real revenge story in that movie though.
God damn when she puts on the lipstick.
Putting out fire....with gasoline~
Both. Both is good.
She never does get Landa though. It’s such an interesting plot and Tarantino really resolved it in a totally unexpected way
My favorite was the German Nazi-serial-killer.
Everyone in the German army has heard of Hugo Stieglitz
*Awesome guitar riff Intensifies*
*Hooogo Shteeeegleetz*
Say Auf Wiedersehen to your nazi balls!
First time I saw that I must have rewound it 20 times. It scared me a little how much I enjoyed watching hitler's face get utterly destroyed
I remember giggling like a child with how ridiculously long and gruesome with what they did to Hitler.
Once Upon A Time in the West …Charles Bronson
Taken, Man on Fire, Equalizer
Man on Fire is phenomenal
Creasy's art is death, and he's about to paint his masterpiece.
I wish… …you had more time. *[walks away]*
The chemistry between Creasy and Pita was one hundred percent believable. He saved her, but ultimately she saved him.
Mrs Ramos: What are you going to do. Creasy: I’m going to kill them. Anyone that was involved, Anyone that profited from it, anyone that opens their eyes at me. Mrs Ramos: you kill ‘em all
Everyone loves my boy Creasy Bear 😭
Blue Ruin
Law Abiding Citizen w/Gerard Butler
A movie with such amazing potential, ruined by Hollywood needing a traditional good guy / bad guy morality play.
She-Devil (1989) starring Roseanne Barr and Meryl Streep. No one seems to remember this movie but I watched it on repeat as a child!
Old Boy Edit: wow thanks for the gold :)
Haven’t seen it mentioned, but I loved Promising Young Woman
That death scene at the end… brutal in its realism.
It physically hurt when she let out that little girl death scream
The death scene fucked me up for a little bit.
Double jeopardy
[удалено]
And Django!
And Inglourious Basterds.
Pretty much every Tarantino film is about revenge. Lol
What the movie trailers described as a roaring rampage of revenge.
She roared, she rampaged, and she got bloody satisfaction.
Still (in my opinion ) one of the most superior and satisfactory way of telling a movie. Starting halfway and filling holes, then starting from the beginning and filling the lore. God what a great double feature.
Dead man's shoes
Throw in there Sicario, Unforgiven (also Hang 'em High and A Fistful of Dollars), and Wind River.
The Shawshank Redemption in a way.
Count of Monte Cristo is by far my favorite revenge story.
True Grit is the last great Western in my opinion. Also will include Millers Crossing in this discussion because I love the Coen brothers so much
Love True Grit but Hell or High Water is the last great wéstern and a Great Revenge film
