Adrien Brody: 5 Awesome Performances & 5 That Sucked

3. Royce - Predators (2010)

Anybody who thought Adrien Brody was a bad or strange choice for an action hero was way off base. Brody not only completely sold himself as a rootin'-tootin' mercenary, but also looked to be having massive amounts of fun doing so (how couldn't you, when you're annihilating aliens with the help of Alice Braga?). You also have to commend him on how shredded he looks doing the entire film; he's like Dutch's indie-hipster cousin. Say what you will about Predators as a film (it does have its moments), Brody was one of the best parts about it, regardless of whether fans feel it squandered its premise or not. It's just such a shame that the money shot pictured above didn't actually play out that way in the final film, but Brody can't be blamed for that, guys.
