5. Raoul Silva - Skyfall (2012)
Despite the complicated nature of Raoul Silva's plan in the excellent James Bond outing
Skyfall, the nature of his villainy is surprisingly simple (and kind of justified): we learn over the course of the movie that Silva, once an M16 agent, was sold out and left to die by M. That's it. She betrayed the man, and he came back for her. Seriously: back when they worked together in Hong Kong, M noticed that Silva had been doing a little bit of unauthorised hacking on the Chinese. So she slaps him on the wrist and he apologises, and everything's back to normal, right? Wrong. M hands Silva over to the Chinese government, where he's tortured and imprisoned. When he attempts to take his own life with a cyanide pill, he fails, and he badly disfigures himself. Once he's out of China, Silva dedicates himself to doing the one thing that might cross the minds of anybody in his situation - tracking down and killing the one person responsible for years of pain. And that person is M. Perhaps he shouldn't have involved anybody else in his ploys, or they might've settled it over a cup of tea instead (and all those innocent people shouldn't have been killed), but Silva was betrayed, and his motive makes him more than just a "villain."
