When Joe kills that henchman with one punch...


Did anyone else think that the ohter guy's reaction was hilarious. They're in the middle of some giant conspiracy to kill a senator, they just murdered a police man in broad daylight but that guy seemed like he was about to cry or something at the thought that someone had just died in front of him.

It was because of the way of the kill .... he sure as hell wasn't expecting an attack like that of Joe!!

I've got tears in my eyes just thinking about that scene. LOL! That guy is about to start bawling as Joe calmly picks his smoke up as if nothing happened. Of course then Milo comes in "you don't disappoint Joseph".

I could watch that scene over and over all day.

@jav4927 Well he wasn't just anyone - he was Pablo's pal Chet!

My fave scene in the movie, no contest.

Kim Coates played an azxhole and seeing him get his brain short circuited with a upward nose kill shot was super cool

I told you... you touch me again and I'll kill you.

wow you posted this in 2013 and weren't obnoxious enough to write that the guy was about to die when Hallenback killed Tig?

Good for you.

I don't let anyone hot-comb out my HAIRitage!

reply

Is this realistic though? I mean how likely is it that a guy would die from one punch?

reply

It was disproven on Mythbusters (how I'll never know...or want to), but Hallenbeck broke the guy's nose and the bone and cartilage was supposed to be shoved up into his brain.
