Bruce Payne in Passenger 57. Has that cool calm but psychotic thing going on..the intellectual baddy. Hard to take Liz Hurley seriously as a terrorist though

The guy who plays Hannibal Lecter. Also another vote for Zac Effron and Alan Rickman

I enjoyed Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen) in Casino Royale. Not a film but I think Arthur (Paul Anderson) in Peaky Blinders is an awesome henchman. Best has to be Hanibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins) though.

Alan Rickman as Hans Gruber and Christoph Waltz as Hans Landa are standouts for me.

Johnny Depp as ‘Whitey’ Bulger in Black mass is particularly good too.

Was hoping that Christoph Waltz as Hans Landa would have been mentioned on this thread.

It's a bingo!

Classic performance.

Always thought that Stephen Graham, when called upon to play a nasty piece of work, is as good as it gets.
