Movie heroes are like sandwiches. No matter how high you pile the ingredients, they're still going to come out blowing something up. Wait, that didn't come out right. I meant to say... sandwiches are like bombs. They're delicious and explosive... and... there's... hold on a second, I just had it. Um... I'm sure you can figure out a metaphor in there somewhere. Trust me, it's a good one. My point is, movie heroes are notoriously careless when it comes to the matter of their day jobs. As they go about the world, saving the day and punching bad guys from the tops of skyscrapers, they're inclined to inflict a bit of damage upon an unsuspecting society of civilians. Sure, collateral damage is an essential part of being a good guy - it's one of the "perks," even. In most cases, we brush that kind of behaviour under the carpet, because we accept the "greater good," and we love fire. Now and again, though, movie heroes just take things way too far. Here's 8 that emerged triumphant that kind of, uh... didn't deserve to. I mean, did they
really need to drive that hijacked plane through the front of a retirement home? Was that totally necessary? In other cases, it might be that the hero has been so ridiculously careless throughout an entire movie, and - looking back - it just doesn't feel right for them to come out victorious...
