20 Insanely Awesome 2016 Movie 1 Liners

1. "I Don't Care. He Killed My Mom" - Captain America: Civil War

Captain America Civil War Iron Man
Marvel Studios

This is a brilliantly, elegantly simple line that completely cements Civil War's themes. As Cap (Chris Evans) tries to convince Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr) that fighting Bucky (Sebastian Stan) won't change the fact his parents are dead, Tony blurts out the simple truth, that he's mad as Hell and wants revenge for what Bucky did.

It ensures that Tony can't be talked out of the fight and sets a decidedly more visceral tone for the climactic showdown, which carries this added urgency throughout. Downey Jr. did easily his best work as the character to date in Civil War, typified no more than by those final 15 minutes and this single line.
