What’s better than a movie with an absolutely awesome hero or an absolutely awesome villain? How about a movie that features both? When the movie doesn’t revolve around one character, but two strong characters fighting one another, that’s where some films really get a chance to shine. Here are ten of the best movie face-offs in Hollywood history.

#10 “Superman II” (1980), Superman vs. General Zod. Although not the best Superman movie, General Zod and his henchmen might be the most ruthless and impressive villains that Superman faces in any of the films in this series. It’s hard to argue Superman as not being an awesome hero, but the three outlaws led by General Zod are equally intense villains, and gave the man of steel all he could handle in this great movie face off.

#9 “Die Hard” (1988), Detective John McClane vs. Hans Gruber. John McClane is one of Bruce Willis’s most beloved characters. He is a gritty hero who knows how to fight and get the job done, even against a whole group of terrorists. Hans Gruber, though, often doesn’t get the credit he deserves. He is an intensely cold man who has no value on human life, whether it opposes him or even if it’s one of his own men. He even forces McClane into a stand off at the end, and so even behind a refined accent and fancy suit, Hans is one bad guy you don’t want to mess with.

#8 “Seven” (1995), Detectives David Mills & William Somerset vs. John Doe. Can a bad guy be so evil that he makes this list even with only ten minutes of screen time? Absolutely. Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman track down the serial killer only known as “John Doe,” a man who is choosing his victims based on the seven deadly sins. He mocks the detectives as they try to track him down, ending with one of the most intense movie twists in Hollywood history. This is an amazing movie, and Kevin Spacey as John Doe comes across as the scariest type of sociopath. The detectives vs. John Doe definitely make the list of amazing Hollywood face offs.

#7 “Assassins” (1995), Robert Rath vs. Miguel Bain. This movie is made for a face off list, as two professional assassins face off against one another. Robert Rath, played by Sylvester Stallone is the older experienced professional of twenty years, widely considered one of the best in the world, and he is set to face off against Miguel Bain, played by Antonio Banderas, a young assassin who wants to be considered the best in the world. These two go at it with some scenes that will blow your mind, making these two of the best bad guys to face off in a Hollywood movie.

#6 “Heat” (1995), Lt. Vincent Hanna vs. Neil McCauley & Chris Shiherlis. Al Pacino against Robert de Niro, Val Kilmer, and company. This is the story of an obsessive LAPD detective against a ruthless group of bank robbers and killers. When this movie was first released, the shoot out scene was legendary, raising the bar for every movie to follow and keeping this film on the “gotta’ see that movie” list years later.
