Javier Bardem

“No Country For Old Men,” “Skyfall” and “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” all have one thing in common, that being that their main villain is played by the menacing Javier Bardem. Bardem’s quiet approach to villainy is what makes him stand out amongst the rest, his reserved delivery makes the viewers hang on every word, and his magnetism makes him even more terrifying.
