20 Insanely Awesome 2016 Movie 1 Liners

A movie can be bolstered by a fantastic performance, some thrilling action and, of course, a cracking one-liner among other things. Snappy dialogue can bolster even an otherwise bad film and make you appreciate it more (as evidenced by a couple of the clunkers in this list).

A funny, witty or simply bada** line can stick in the brain like a worm, lingering for years after as you endlessly quote it among friends and, in some cases, it even becomes an Internet meme the world over.

These 20 lines represent the cleverest, most hilarious and straight-up coolest one-liners from the last twelve months of film, expertly delivered for maximum effectiveness and quotability. If you haven't annoyed your pals with them yet, you probably will soon enough.

Sammy's hilarious reply? "Ed-ward Nor-ton? What kinda parent gives their kid a stupid c*** name like that?" It's the perfect meta-response, all the more so considering a lot of viewers probably didn't realise Norton was playing the neurotic, Woody Allen-esque bagel until Sammy himself found out.
