He was amazing as Bodhi in Point Break. I've noticed how some of these "good" guy actors tend to make great villains. For eg Tom Cruise in Collateral, Rob Lowe in Bad Influence, Kevin Costner in 3000 Miles to Graceland etc.
He even gave a decent performance in Donnie Darko in his small role as the sleazy motivational speaker Jim Cunningham.

Patrick Swayze played a criminal in "Father Hood" (1993). (He's a father who is a criminal hood, get it?)

Henry Fonda is another example in Once Upon a Time in the West.

The only one that’s left is Tom Hanks. And I mean an actual villain, not the ersatz Steve Jobs from The Circle.

Looking at the thread title, I thought it would be about Point Break or even Donnie Darko. Father Hood looks like a movie about a likeable criminal who just wants to spend some time with his children.

I would like to add Bruce Willis in The Jackal and Brad Pitt in Kalifornia.
