26. Desperado
Fast-paced, greatly shot, incredibly edited, Robert Rodriguez’s Desperado defines Antonio Banderas as an actor par excellence in his quest for revenge. Rodriguez knows the economy of time and he knows how to handle sudden explosions – he sets an example of both in the movie. Also, for a reason as simple as Salma Hayek looking her best and delivering a performance many would dream of, this movie should not be insulted with a reboot.
