Lionsgate
Most of us will never be targeted by outside assassins . And that ’s great , because who wants to be mark for death ? It does n’t sound like much fun . The same go for kidnapping plot , robberies , and other outlandishly life-threatening situations you ’d see in a standard action flick . As far as we ’re concerned , permit the movies be the moving-picture show . We ’ve got enough problems to trade with in realism .
However , in the unlikely case that your life was in peril and you could only call upon an natural action movie character for assistance , who would you pass on out to ? There ’s no shortage of pick . But for me , there are five easy option to make when it ’s my life sentence on the line . That ’s why the come tough guys are the five action movie characters that I ’d hire to be my escort .
Lionsgate
John McClane
Note that the only John McClane that I ’ll resolve for is Bruce Willis in his bloom from the first threeDie Hardmovies . countenance ’s just pretend that the other two plastic film never happened . McClane is n’t a superhuman natural process zep who ’s invulnerable to pain , at least not in the initial flicks . rather , he ’s just a regular cat who rises to the juncture to save the day and deliver his estranged wife from dangerous thieves pretending to be terrorist .
Do n’t you want somebody who ’s so consecrate that they ’ll run barefoot on broken glass just to pull through ? McClane ’s done that and more . But hopefully he ’ll remember his shoes this metre .
James Bond
Ok , so 007 does n’t always have the best track record when it come up to protecting the people he loves . InCasino Royale , James Bondfails to save Vesper Lynd , although the mitigating consideration there is that she prevented him from doing so . Bond does n’t have the same exculpation inSkyfall , which is where he seduce Sévérine and promised to protect her from Raoul Silva . Sévérine was killed in brief thereafter , and all Bond had to show for it was a sally .
However , there ’s nobody well to call upon if you ’ve been kidnap . adherence will move heaven and Earth to pass through a villain ’s den and eliminate every henchman between him and his end . The net spoilt guy of necessity pass at Bond ’s hand . But as long I make it out live , I ’m fine with it .
Jason Statham
To be cleared , this pick covers any character who has ever been played byJason Statham in an action motion-picture show . Because if you ’ve seen one Jason Statham film , then you ’ve kind of seen them all . He ’s not an role player who gets hire for his excited range . rather , he ’s spend the last two tenner convincingly build his stain as one of the go - to activity star in Hollywood .
Since this is all just a thought experiment to set about with , the ideal squad to handle a crisis would be a chemical group completely comprised of Statham ’s characters . Every Statham Everywhere All At Once , if you will . You could have the best getaway driver in Frank Martin fromThe Transporter , the leadership ofThe Expendables ‘ Lee Christmas , and the unrelenting drive of Deckard Shaw from the Fast and ferocious films .
John Wick
John Wick ’s skills lie more in kill than protecting . But that ’s the accurate reason why he ’d be a great escort . Anything that Wick gets his hand on becomes a lethal artillery , and even Army of assassin have n’t been able to slow him down .
He ’s dead deadly in a fight . So much so that even the mention of John Wick ’s name sends shivers of fear down the spines of anyone who knows about him . Money ca n’t buy a reputation that ’s so intimate that grown men would rather fly than fight John Wick .
The Terminator
When it comes to theTerminator , accept no substitutes . The T-800 good example has been come up back in time for 40 years , and it still routinely outperforms more advanced models from the future . Now , it would be featherbrained to paint a picture that this Terminator model is more human than its successors . But there is something about the T-800 that will never take frustration — even if it means self - termination .
The Terminator should be the top name on anyone ’s inclination of action movie bodyguard . He ’s almost invulnerable and he rarely ceases to function before the job is cease . And as we all know by now , the only things that can defeat this Terminator are the last three continuation .
