Watch Keanu Reeves in a movie called "John Wick".

I think he shoots every bad guy in the head from point blank range

Yep, watched "John Wick" on Netflix......solid revenge, action flick. 

I'd enjoy a John Wick v Jack Reacher movie.

Also, if you haven't see "Man of Tai Chi" with Keanu it's a good one.

Just watched this and oh my, such awesomeness! Think Rambo 4, Commando, Die Hard and all the eighties one man action heros rolled in to one, no fucking about with this R rated flick, Butler has a particular taste for stabbing his knife in to people's skulls, you must see at least 200 people get violently cut down by bulletfire, from long range as well as murdered up close.If you havnt seen it you need to ASAP.

In honor of this beautiful film I thought I'd try to put together a list of all the other one man pissed of army films, no will smith crap plz.Think high body counts and plenty of violence.Off the top of my head if anyone has any to add Id like to rewatch some I've forgotten.

John Wick was one of those movies that was predictable but was still definitely worth seeing.
