Oldboy(2003) is a masterpiece

Whaaaat... How the hell did Law Abiding Citizen not make this list? It's the ultimate revenge movie. The guy literally spent 10 years planning to get his revenge.

"I Saw The Devil" is a great Korean revenge film.

How is “I Spit in Your Grave not even mentioned?!

OMFG! How do you leave off the original "I spit on your grave!"? That is the ultimate revenge film.

Gladiator is that kind of movie that make everyone cry , realistc and relatable movie

Uma Thurman is amazing in Kill Bill , great movie as well

I'll add two Stephen King classics, Carrie and Christine.

I am very surprised that Braveheart and The Revenant didn't make the list.

Unforgiven gave me legit goosebumps, when he just appears in the saloon full of guys about to hunt him and he’s holding that shotgun, it’s like “oh… yall are f***ed now!”

Revenge movies are just so satisfying, because you just watch the bad guy win until the end. We all know how it’ll end, but it’s still great entertainment.

I can’t believe I just watched a top revenge movies list and not one mention of I Saw The Devil… the greatest revenge movie that has ever been made. Also I Spit On Your Grave is a revolutionary one

One thing that sets John Wick apart from other revenge movies is that John doesn’t say a bold one liner or monologue before he kills Iosef. He just shots him and walks away. That, in my opinion, is an excellent execution of a revenge kill.

the lack of "Lucky number Slevin" is disturbing !!! great movie, great cast, great story, great twist, great revenge movie

No revenge movie list is legit without “I saw the devil” that movie is the definition of revenge

Definitely Oldboy. This is the most realistic take on revenge revenge is about. That it always leads to tragedy. Two men ruined their lives because of their obsession with revenge. In the end, nothing of what was lost was brought back. Nothing of what was done was undone. In fact, one of them had nothing to live for anymore after everything.

not a movie but cartman’s revenge on scott tenor man is right up there.

A nod should have been given to "The Revenant" with Leonardo DiCaprio. That was a revenge story through and through. As well as "The Raid 2."

"Mad Max " is great revenge movie form the land down under .And this list of movies on it .Is great since seen and own few of them ,but I would put "Star Wars Revenge of the Sith "as well .And "Johnny Handsome "89 .Should have been on this list as well .So make another list Mojo gang .

I knew Kill Bill Vol.1 & 2 were going to be number 1 on the list. Greatest revenge themed movies of all time.

I loved the lineup. However, 'The Revenant' should have had a spot

Mystic River should have been mentioned for this list. The acting is masterful and its story of trauma and violence begetting violence is visceral.

You could pick any more from Park Chan Wooks Vengeance trilogy since they're all great movies

I can't believe The Mask of Zorro is not on this list. The Japanese movie The Machine Girl also deserves a mention.

I totally agree with number 1, especially volume 1. It is one of my favourite action films ever made, I even have a T-shirt with the film poster on it

The original Conan: the Barbarian should have had a spot here. The soundtrack is absolutely amazing and though Ahnold isn't an acting powerhouse, his physicality and brutality in exacting his revenge on Thulsa Doom is a cinematic masterpiece.

Great list. I think it is missing Django and Revenant, but those belong on my list. Awesome content as always.

To me, it’s Tony Scott’s “Man on Fire” (2004).

I guess they didn't see I saw the devil in my opinion the greatest revenge movie ever.

So happy the original Old Boy was on the list and Top 3.

I've always liked Magneto's story of vengeance in X-Men: First Class.

Great list. Needs a part 2.

The revenant is just something else

Really, Tarantino is excellent at revenge flicks from Inglorious Basterds to Kill Bill and even Django Unchained (pseudo-revenge for slavery and taking his wife back!)

My list of top 25 revenge movies - 1. The Godfather 2 2. The Skin I live in (Spanish) 3. I saw the devil (Korean) 4. Oldboy (Korean) 5. Kill Bil Vol 1 & 2 6. Memento 7. Gladiator 8. Gangs of wasseypur 1 & 2 (Indian) 9. John Wick 10. I spit on your grave 11. Gangs of new york 12. Inglorious Bastards 13. The Revenant 14. Lady Vengence (Korean) 15. The count of monte cristo 16. Law abiding citizen 17. The Northmen 18. The Punisher 19. Agneepath (Indian) 20. Avengers Endgame 21. Prisoners 22. Django unchained 23. True Grit 24. Revenge 25. Promising young woman Honorable mention - Deadpool, Harry potter the deathly hallows 1& 2, Pirates of the caribbean - The curse of the black pearl, Man on fire, American assassin, etc.

Blue Ruin is a small film but a great revenge flick none the less.

One of my favorites is Man on Fire. Revenge is a meal best served cold. John's art is death and he's about to paint his masterpiece. Two of my favorite quotes in a movie ever.

How could you pass up ‘Death Wish” with Charles Bronson. This has to be one of th e classic revenge movies .

Cape Fear (either the original or the remake) needs to be in the top 5. The other Gladiator (1992) wouldn't be out of place. Law abiding citizen also. Maybe a tad soon for the Northman

I couldn't agree more to the list with *Kill Bill 1 & 2* making it to the top of the list. Though, I wished *Sam Mendes'* brilliant period gangster movie *The Road to Perdition* was there on the list. It was one of *Mendes'* under-rated films.

How are you going to mention Leo DiCaprio & revenge and not mention “The Revenant” at all?! Not just a masterpiece of cinema or an exemplary demonstration of true revenge, but the one movie that won him an Oscar! Not to mention the chemistry that he and costar Tom Hardy (he was totally robbed that year) had! That movie was both beautifully done and masterfully told! And this is one of the reasons why I constantly question Mojo’s top list videos!!!

Great job from Ryan, his narration seems to be more intense than ever

Law abiding Citizen deserves at least an honorable mention on this list

Law Biding Citizen should've been added to this list. A man losses his family and he will do anything and everything in his power to bring the whole corruption law system down!

Hard to judge if it should fall under this category, but Man From Nowhere should be top 3 if it wiggles its way into a 'revenge' movie.

Bruh the Harder they fall on Netflix was sooo good why don't ppl talk about this?! The twist at the end 😭😭😭

Oh man, you put my two favorites at the top! I watch them whenever they’re on! Kill Bill is my all-time favorite and Gladiator isn’t far behind!

Nice to see Oldboy, but could've added I Saw The Devil as an honorable mention, another amazing movie by Choi Min-sik that deals with revenge

Just watched Peppermint (Jennifer Garner) and all ama say is this list needs a part 2

A favourite of mine is Upgrade (2018) about a man who is involved in a car crash and is paralysed by a criminal who also murders his wife. He receives an implant that allows him to walk again and goes on a violent quest to avenge her death. It’s elevated by a devastating twist that completely changes the story and features incredible cinematography and a career best performance from Logan Marshall Green

Has anyone seen "Sleepers", that´s a great revenge-movie!

I think that "I Spit on Your Grave" should have been on this list...as well as "Django Unchained"

One to add is 'Fury' by Fritz Lang (1936). It was Lang's first English speaking movie about a person who is mistakenly assumed to be a robber, where a small town forms a lynch mob to kill him. He escapes death but is on a mission to get revenge on the town and set them up for their death sentence in court (as it's assumed he died in a fire they caused). Good stuff.

20. Us 19. John Wick 18. RoboCop 17. Munich 16. Man on Fire 15. Big Bad Wolves 14. Promising Young Woman 13. Gone Girl 12. The Princess Bride 11. Bad Boys for Life 10. Deadpool 9. León: The Professional 8. Captain America: Civil War 7. Gladiator 6. Kill Bill: Vol. 2 5. Braveheart 4. Inglourious Basterds 3. Unforgiven 2. The Double (2011) 1. Mean Girls

SO, WatchMojo, are you SERIOUSLY going to outright DISRESPECT Django Unchained (2012) by NOT having that on this list?!?! Django is HANDS DOWN one of the Greatest movies of the 21st Century and easily one of the best Revenge Movies (should have been in the Top 10)

Just a personal belief and everyone is entitled to their own, but to me, Gangs of New York definitely deserves a spot much higher than #20. That's a small, but noticeable slight to a truly exceptional film. It's one of Daniel Day-Lewis' greatest works, but the whole cast holds you in the seat of your chair with stellar performances. It's a film that grabs you in the first minute and doesn't let go until you're left with shivers during the credit roll while portraying both the revenge story and touching on much deeper topics than a simple revenge story. Even the closing line by Leonardo DeCaprio is filled with tension, while also underlying the movie's overarching plot about time and the pettiness of our squabbles as it rolls ever onward. Easily in my top 5 movies of all time, and probably my top revenge-killing movie by a wide berth.

Yasss I am so happy Kill Bill 1 and 2 was 1! These best revenge movie ever! There is 1 movie I was wished made the list, Django. I hope I spelled it right!

I think Jonah Hex, The Punisher, Death Wish should be on the list… movie about revenge to their family murderer.. All of this movies was vigilante masterpiece

Thank you for your killer video 🎥🏆

Such a great ilst. Old Boy is GOLD!

If Oldboy isn’t #1, then WatchMojo doesn’t understand revenge

Nothing in revenge genre will ever come close to "Once upon a time in the west" its timeless masterpiece from one of a kind film maker. the movie is like a painting. My No 1 also I would encourage everyone to see this movie. It has some of the most beautiful shots, haunting score by ennio, powerful villain, suspense etc, it will make you wonder how did they achieve so much.

1: Death Wish, Both the original movies, and the remake with Bruce Willis. 2: Cold Persuit. Guy's son gets killed by mafia goons. He wages war on the mafia. 3: The Gladiator (1986). Not to be confused with roman stuff. Guy's little brother gets killed by a vigilante who preys on drunk drivers, though the little brother was simply learning to drive and had made a mistake. So, the guy works up some modifications to his truck and goes hunting the other vigilante, while also stopping a number of wreckless drivers, himself. 4: Eye of the Tiger. Basically, Death Wish but with Gary Busey as the protagonist. 5: The Wraith. Guy gets killed by a gang, who kidnaps and brainwashes his girlfriend. Comes back as a vengeful ghost with a supernatural sports car prototype. 6: Rolling Vengeance. Guy's family gets killed by a redneck family who owns the local distillery. Corrupt system won't do anything. He builds a monster truck with an auger on the front to kill said redneck family. 7: Next of Kin. Cop's brother gets killed by the mafia. Cop and kinfolk from Apalacia go hunting for mafia.

Man on Fire, The Punisher, and one of the hardest movies to watch, I Spit on Your Grave. The remake of that last one is so brutal yet so satisfying when the revenge happens!

I was kind of hoping to find Faster on here. I still think it's one of Dwayne Johnson's best performances before he "made it big."

High Plains Drifter should be on here before Revenge 2017

No "A few dollars more"?, you know I get that Clint Eastwood is still the center of the movie but seeing Van Cleefs performance and the final duel music with the watch chimes really hit the heart bro.

YES!!! A BIG YES! “Kill Bill 1 & 2” the best 👍🏻 “You and I have some unfinished business.,” Those are very chilling words Beatrix!!!

Didn't expect it on here because it's a British film but dead man's shoes is one off the best films I've watched

I love revenge movies honestly it is therapeutic sometimes to watch certain people get their comeuppance. So there’s 2 films you forgot, Man On Fire is a FANTASTIC revenge film and Fun With Dick and Jane, a comedy about the housing market crash. Honestly anything Denzel Washington has made most of his films are revenge movies. Great list watchmojo may need to make it longer than 20 titles.

I remeber watching the movie name "The Crow" its a very good movie. Highly recommend to watch.

This is all fine and dandy, but where is The Nightingale? I feel like it should definitely fall in a top 20 list.

I haven’t been thru the whole list…but Denzel in Man on Fire was 🔥

Tell me you didn't understand Memento without telling me you didn't understand Memento.

‘The Northman’ is now one of the best movies in 2022.

This feature of Top 20 Revenge Movies of all time via Watch Mojo is very captivating and definitely has me curious to eventually watch some of these multiple features

It doesn’t hurt that Guy Pearce’s performance as Leonard in Memento is amazing either. :) The Crow should be much, much higher. That movie is a unique epic. And Edmond Dantès isn’t freed….he escapes. LOL

#6 The Count of Monte Cristo is phenomenal, one if my all time favorite revenge films! ❤

This may be an unpopular opinion amongst a lot of folks but Clint Eastwood is easily a top 5 director over the last 50 years. Everyone recognizes him first as an actor but he’s made some really great films as a director. Unforgiven is just one of nearly a dozen incredible films he’s directed. Very talented man to say the least. I’m in my late 30s and it’s saddening to see Eastwood get really old.

Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.” - Confucius

I really admire John Wick, Kill Bill and Gladiator. But I think The Revenant deserves an honorable mention.

once upon a time in the west was amazing. I love Morricone's score.

Honorable mentions: Mad Max Payback Man on Fire

These guys obviusly never watched 1950s-1960s Westerns. The Bravados (1958), U.S. Death Rides a Horse (1966), Italian. Hundreds more.

How can you make a Best Revenge Movies List without including 'I Saw The Devil' ?

Seriously no "lucky number Slevin" in the list? WTF that movie is too underrated yet it has one of the best revenge stories ever portrayed. Definitelly a top 5

Once Upon a Time in the West -one of my all time top five. Every last detail from set decoration up is masterful. Amazing cast. Loved, loved, love Henry Fonda, Charles Bronson, Jason Robards, Claudia Cardinale - magnificent. Cinematography better than the finest ten course meal. Choo-choo man and his dying wish. Have watched it at least a dozen times and still find details I never noticed.

I agree with your top spot. However, there are a few films that could've easily made the list. The first 3 even have the same actor (Dolph Lundgren) seeking revenge released the same year... 1989. They are: - Red Scorpion - Showdown In Little Tokyo - And my favorite big screen portrayal of Frank Castle in The (original) Punisher - Plus CrackerJack (1994) with Thomas Ian Griffith and Christopher Plummer and more great revenge films that escape me right now.

Is The Revenant not a revenge story? Loved that movie

A perfect #1 and it still holds up to this day. Now bring on Kill Bill 3!!!

This is a great list, especially with _Kill Bill_ at the top. However, "The Nightingale" (2018) is one of the most brutal movies I've watched to-date. As a revenge movie, it should be on this list.

Nice list. Where is Revenant?!

How could you not even include The Shawshank Redemption? It's the ultimate revenge. Andy escapes to Mexico with the warden's money which results in the warden taking his own life and the head guard going to prison after Andy turns them in to the police.

thanks for the highlights and additional 500 adds in 23 mins video

While this was a great list and I agree with Kill Bill as #1, I can't believe that Tony Scott's Man on Fire did even make the list....glaring oversight
