There are so many other great Val Kilmer movies that didn’t make it on this list. Admittedly, The Saint has a shaky script and a schmaltzy romance (maybe that’s why they’re remaking it), but at the end of the day, I think it’s pure Val Kilmer. He looks like he’s having so much fun in every scene and shows a great deal of range with the variety of eccentric personalities and accents. It has everything he’s known for: Sarcasm, charm, charisma, wit, a tortured soul, action, and adventure. In my mind, The Saint is the perfect Val Kilmer movie. He’s hired by a Russian oil businessman to steal a formula for cold fusion but ends up falling in love with the scientist that invented it and, realizing what the Russian businessman will do with the formula, decides to turn against him, instead. The Saint is about a talented, international thief that goes by the name Simon Templar. I’ve watched and enjoyed this movie too many times to count.
I might get some flak for this, but I don’t really care The Saint rules.
