* In ''Film/BlackWidow2021'', BigBad loathsome bastard Dreykov is an extremely vile and unjustified example of this. As head of the Black Widow Program, he’s abused hundreds of women from early ages to turn them into assassins, cut out their ovaries to prevent them from giving birth and is strongly implied to have done [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil worse things to them]]. In the climax, Dreykov takes his time smacking around Natasha knowing she is unable to fight back due to a nasal pheromone preventing her from attacking him. Although this is part of what induces his VillainousBreakdown, as Nat MadeOfIron laughs while Dreykov hits her, mocking how pathetic he is which destroys his composure and makes him reveal his plan.
-->'''Natasha:''' What? Come on you think I can’t take a punch?\\
''[Dreykov slugs her again]''\\
'''Natasha:''' Goddamn it, you are weak!\\
'''Dreykov:''' ''Weak?''\\
'''Natasha:''' I bet it's easier to be tough in front of defenseless little girls, huh?
* Downplayed in ''Film/TheBoondockSaints''. Il Duce will never kill a woman, but apparently has no problem hitting one over the head to knock them out (it was actually [[WholesomeCrossdresser a male]] FBIAgent in disguise, but he didn't know this). Same goes for the [=McManus=] twins, as towards the beginning of the film Murphy punches a StrawFeminist in the face after she [[GroinAttack kicks Connor in the balls]], and taser their target's wife.
* The fight between Shemp and his suitors in Film/TheThreeStooges' ''Brideless Groom''. Larry [[PistolWhipping raises the butt of a pistol]], but Moe stops him.
-->'''Moe:''' Wait a minute! You wouldn't hit a lady with that. ''(hands him a rifle)'' [[BaitAndSwitch Use this -- it's bigger.]]
* Zig-zagged a bit in the Czechoslovak fairytale ''Film/FrauHolle'', after the same-named Grimm fairytale. After our hero has worked for Frau Holle in heaven, he can see Aunt Scythe, a.k.a. Death. She's portrayed as a killer with evil plans of her own, and when she's after the life of his princess, she gets a good beating from him. She turns into a young girl (which is a standard Slavic image of Death, which is female there) to save her skin, correctly assuming he wouldn't hit a sexy ''young'' girl. It works but he breaks her scythe over his knee. And they lived happily ever after.
* [[ScaryBlackMan Deebo]], portrayed by the late Creator/TinyLister, from ''Film/{{Friday}}'' has no problem with hitting a woman even if she isn't afraid of him like the rest of the movie characters. Craig, portrayed by Music/IceCube, then even stand up to Deebo and fight him for this.
* In ''Film/TheGauntlet'', Ben deals with a bunch of guys in the boxcar of a train until only their lone female member is left. She asks, "You wouldn't hit a lady, would you?" GilliganCut to her going flying out of the boxcar.
* ''Film/Deadpool2016'':
** While on the hunt for Ajax, Deadpool tracks down and assaults two women, wondering aloud whether ''not'' hitting them would be more sexist after one tried to attack him. He does so, while ''clearly preparing to shoot them at point blank''.
** Colossus doesn't hesitate fighting Angel Dust once she shows that she's as strong as he is. Amusingly though, Colossus remains a gentleman in spite of hitting her; when one of Angel Dusts' breasts comes out of her shirt he stops the fight so she can fix it, even covering his eyes.
* There's a scene in ''Film/GhostDogTheWayOfTheSamurai'' where two Mafioso are speeding down a road and trying to get to a hospital because one of them has been shot and is dying. They get pulled over by a [[MeddlesomePatrolman Meddlesome Patrolwoman]] and one of them tries to convince her they need to get to the hospital, but to no avail. The second simply shoots her the moment she tries to talk to him. When his partner expresses shock about shooting a woman, he says something like "They want to be equal...I made her equal."
* During the climactic fight in ''Film/GodzillaFinalWars'', Commander Gordon is fighting a female alien cyborg who asks him, "Are you really going to hit a woman?" He pauses a moment to relax his fist into an open palm, says "Yeah" and breaks her neck.
* In ''Film/TheGreatStLouisBankRobbery'', the [[HeManwomanHater misogynistic]] John Egan throws Ann off the fire escape because he is afraid she might take what she knows about TheHeist to the police.
* ''Film/TheHouseThatJackBuilt'': Most of Jack's victims are women, with Verge suggesting he's a misogynist. He weakly denies it, saying he's killed men as well.
* ''Film/JamesBond'':
** In ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'' Bond kills [[spoiler:Elektra King]] right after [[YouWouldntShootMe she assumes he won't because they slept together]] and [[spoiler:tells Renard to go through with their NukeEm plan]].
** ''Film/TheLivingDaylights'' has Bond's superiors accuse him of [[WouldntHitAGirl opposite trope]], at least if she's beautiful, after he risks a defection by shooting the gun out of a female sniper's hands instead of shooting the sniper. Bond counters that he has no problem shooting women, beautiful or otherwise -- what he ''has'' a problem shooting is [[spoiler: people not involved in the spy business: he could see from the way the supposed KGB sniper was handling her gun that she wasn't experienced with guns and so couldn't be a trained sniper]].
* ''Film/TheKunoichiNinjaGirl'': Neither Higetsu, Shomotsuki nor Shinmu have any issue with striking any of the kidnapped women. Higetsu takes a sadistic glee in hurting women, while the stoic Shimtsuki states he does not enjoy hurting women but will do so if he has to.
* In ''Film/LiveFreeOrDieHard'', John [=McClane=] has no qualms about hitting a woman, just as long as she's a terrorist.
* Mad Max, in ''Film/MadMaxBeyondThunderdome'', is reluctant to hit Anna Goanna, teenage leader of the feral kids, but he does so anyway in an attempt to stop her going to Bartertown. She goes anyway.
* In ''Film/MortalKombatTheMovie'', though combatants are likely to face opposite-gendered opponents in the tournament, Kano especially relishes in hitting and kicking Sonya before she turns the tables on him.
* ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean'' The crew of ''The Flying Dutchman'' don't distinguish between Elizabeth and the male pirates whenever they fight.
-->'''Davy Jones:''' HARRIDAN! You'll see nae mercy from me!
* In ''Film/Posse1975'', Wesley [[PistolWhipping pistol whips]] Mrs. Cooper when she tries to stop him from taking the money from the cafe.
* In ''Film/ScottPilgrimVsTheWorld'', Todd punches the highlights out of Knives's hair as his KickTheDog moment (though it was Lynette Guycott who did this in the comic). Gideon beats on Ramona to establish himself as the BigBad of the film. Whenever he hits a girl, a video game voice says "Bad!" to lampshade it. This is all in direct contrast to Scott, who [[WouldntHitAGirl refuses to hit a girl]] even when she's trying to kill him.
* ''Film/TheSuicideSquad'': Peacemaker spells it out to his teammates when arriving in Corto Maltese, he [[ImmediateSelfContradiction cherishes peace with all his heart no matter how many women and children he has to kill to get it]]. In response Ratcatcher II Cleo notes to Polka-Dot Man “I thought you were the crazy one”. [[spoiler: She learns first hand that he means it, as while fleeing with evidence of US government’s wrongdoing, Peacemaker hunts Cleo down and attempts to blow her brains out while she pleads with him. Thankfully PapaWolf Bloodsport arrives to put a bullet in his neck.]]
* In ''Film/TheThinMan'', Nick decks his wife Nora to get her out of the field of fire when a gun-wielding man bursts into the room. Later, while rubbing her jaw, she criticizes his tactics but accepts his intentions.
* In ''Film/{{Timecop}}'', Max Walker tells Sarah Fielding that he won't hit a girl, but changes his mind when he's sick of her kicking the shit out of him and knocks her out with a single punch.
* ''Film/WildRiver'': PoliticallyIncorrectVillain RJ Bailey punches Carol almost hard enough to knock her unconscious, and ends up punching one of his own cronies for protesting this.
* In ''Film/ZombiesZombiesZombies'', Johnny '[=BackHand=]' Vegas is a pimp who gets his nickname from his habit of his slapping his girls with a hand covered in heavy rings.
