Each film has as a common denominator the determination and stubbornness of the various protagonists who, after having suffered an unforgivable wrong, take justice into their own hands, embarking on a dangerous road that is never without twists and turns. Many iconic titles, starting with two films in the Machete saga: Machete from 2010 by Robert Rodriguez and Ethan Maniquis, with an exceptional cast of the caliber of Danny Trejo, Steven Seagal, Jessica Alba and Robert De Niro, and Machete Kills from 2013 by Robert Rodriguez, with Danny Trejo, Mel Gibson, Michelle Rodriguez and Lady Gaga.
Among the other titles in the review, Jimmy Bobo – Bullet to the Head from 2012 by Walter Hill also stands out, the story takes place in New Orleans and stars Jimmy Bobo (Sylvester Stallone), a ruthless killer, and Taylor Kwon (Sung Kang) , detectives from the Washington Department, who form an unlikely alliance to stop a vicious criminal guilty of murdering their respective partners. We continue with the 2004 film The Punisher by Jonathan Hensleigh in which an FBI agent, Frank Castle (Thomas Jane), after the murder of his wife and children, will take justice into his own hands by starting a bloody war against the criminals responsible for their deaths.
Also noteworthy is the film The duel – By Way of Helena from 2016 by Kieran Darcy-Smith, in which the relentless Texas ranger David Kingston (Liam Hemsworth) is sent to a small town near Mexico to investigate some mysterious murders. Once he arrives, he will face Abraham Brant (Woody Harrelson), a charismatic preacher who advocates the superiority of the white race over Mexicans and Native Indians. David will have to deal with this ghost from his past to restore order to the city.
Finally, the first-run film Riders of Justice from 2020 by Anders Thomas Jensen is not to be missed. The story is that of Markus (Mads Mikkelsen), a soldier serving in Afghanistan with a rough and ruthless character who, after the death of his wife in a train accident, returns from the front to take care of his teenage daughter. Some dark sides in the circumstances of the tragedy push Markus to suspect that his wife has been killed and thus begins a ruthless hunt for those responsible.
