!!Films -- Animated:
* [[EvilSorcerer Jafar]] in ''{{WesternAnimation/Aladdin}}'', when ScaledUp to his [[OneWingedAngel giant cobra form]]. [[TruthInTelevision Just like a real cobra]], he is ''REALLY'' fast and [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever his huge size]] makes him very powerful. While he's [[AvertedTrope not]] [[GiantEqualsInvincible invulnerable]], he does take a sword wound that would kill or cripple a human with no more than a momentary cry of pain.
* The titular man turned monster from ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'', he noticeably moves ''very'' fast at some points [[FasterThanTheyLook despite his size]], Beast can also take on an entire wolf pack and kick acclaimed hunter Gatson's ass.
* Gru from ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe'' has great reaction speed, an impressively quick dash, is fairly skilled in hand-to-hand combat, possesses several inventions with great destructive power like his FreezeRay, and is remarkably good at getting back up after taking serious abuse, as per IronButtMonkey standards
* Io from ''WesternAnimation/EscapeFromPlanetEarth''. A genuine example.
* In ''Anime/FinalFantasyVIIAdventChildren'':
** Cloud has exceptional reflexes and speed, including the ability to keep up with and fight flashstepping opponents such as Loz and blocking gunfire from Yazoo while riding (and jumping on and off of) speeding motorcycles. He also has the strength to carrying a large man like [[TheBigGuy Barret]] with one hand while easily leaping multiple stories in height. As for hitting power, Cloud has quite an array of ImplausibleFencingPowers, combined with the strength to slice apart huge chunks of rubble and smack down a giant monster out of the sky. Additionally, Cloud has the durability to withstand a head-on energy blast from Bahamut Sin, survive being smashed through buildings and getting impaled in the chest by Sephiroth, followed by getting shot through the chest again with a magic-enhanced gunshot by Yazoo. And he needs every bit of that strength, speed, and durability to barely keep up with Sephiroth.
** Kadaj, Loz, and Yazoo are basicially Sephiroth-lites, having Sephiroth's extraordinary speed, strength, and durability to a slightly lesser degree. Loz is strong enough to stop a speeding motorcycle by digging his "Dual Hound" weapon into the ground, then throwing that motorcycle at Cloud using just lower body strength, but he can also [[FLashStep speed between locations]] so rapidly that he has virtual teleportation.
* WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}}. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] since he is a PhysicalGod BroughtDownToBadass.
* ''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon'' has the Night Fury, Toothless, easily the fastest dragon in flight, and with one of the most powerful fire blasts. Also, despite being comparatively small, he easily survives hitting the ground any time he gets shot down or loses control of his flight.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles'':
** Mr Incredible [[FasterThanTheyLook despite]] his [[TopHeavyGuy build]] can run at breakneck speeds (especially after working out), he also [[SuperStrength hits like dump truck]] and can [[SuperToughness endure]] getting a speeding train to the face.
** Elstagirl interestingly is much stronger than she looks and can [[InASingleBound clear entire buildings]] with her [[RubberMan stretchiness]]. Also thanks to her special suit she can survive three missiles exploding her jet while she [[TuckAndCover protects]] [[MamaBear her kids]]
** [[KillerRobot The Omidroid]] looks, moves and hits like a wrecking ball with robotic arms. What's more, the Omnidroid is [[NighInvulnerability near invulnerable]] the only thing strong enough to hurt it [[StopHittingYourself is itself]].
* Tai Lung from WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda. ''Dear God, Tai Lung.'' Just watch his jawdropping escape from prison or his fight against the [[BadassCrew Furious Five]] for a demonstration.
* [[TruthInTelevision True to her species]], Gloria the hippo of ''WesternAnimation/{{Madagascar}}'' is capable of running great speeds despite her bulk. It's carried over to the video games, where jalapeños can be used to boost her speed.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Moana}}''
** [[GiantEnemyCrab Tamatoa]] is a fifty-foot crustacean who dances around his lair at speeds more appropriate for a creature approximately a 50th of his size. He hits like a body-building dinosaur and is unfazed by hits from [[SuperStrength Maui]] in their battle.
** [[SemiDivine Maui himself]] is strong enough to lasso the sun and pull up islands with his hook, can get knocked around by monsters several times his size and run on lava, and is surprisingly quick for his size.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Mulan}}''
** Chien-Po may look like a BigGuy MightyGlacier, (and he shows himself to be just as strong as he looks,) but he's as agile as a monkey.
** Considering that Shan Yu is able to trade blows with him during the climax, and towers over the rest of his army while still being exeptionally agile; and walks way from an ''avalanche'', he more than qualifies.
* ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'' has Miles Morales, Peter B. Parker, Gwen Stacy, Peni Parker (in her MiniMecha), Noir Peter Paker and Peter Porker who can all [[BuildingSwing swing]] at great speeds, hit with enough strength to send huge foes flying through walls and shrug off blows from heavy hitters of the RoguesGallery.
** While there's plenty of villain examples e.g Prowler, Scorpion and [[spoiler: Olivia Octavius]], Kingpin is the crowning example. Just try to imagine Gru ''on steroids'', despite being TopHeavyGuy Kingpin moves swiftly, lifts cars and can survive multiple explosions.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Tarzan}}'' just like in Edgar Rice Burroughs‘ books is easily superhuman. Given he can [[VineSwing swing]]/surf fast enough to clear entire jungles in minutes, [[InASingleBound jump ridiculously]] far, tank getting slashed in the chest by a freaking Leopard and can physically overpower a Silverback Gorilla which is certainly impossible for any normal human.
* The title character of ''WesternAnimation/WreckItRalph'' is fairly fast, able to wreck things so quickly that his fists act like a pair of jackhammers and take a fair amount of punishment. Also, [[spoiler: King Candy's Cy-Bug form]] has enough power to smack down ''Ralph'' of all people, has tough chitinous plating, and is shown to be remarkably fast.

!!Films -- Live-Action
* ''Film/AlitaBattleAngel'': Alita is incredibly fast and agile, able to do things like stand on her hands on the Motorball while it is in play, then lever her body so as to throw both the ball and herself with devastating force. In the Motorball sequence, Alita creates a high-speed MookHorrorShow, knocking and tearing off limbs and heads from the hapless cyborg assassins sent to kill her while dodging their attacks.
* ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan'': The Lizard, who is very big, very strong and ''very'' fast. [[HealingFactor And can heal]] from any gun wound, even MoreDakka.
* In ''Film/BladeRunner'' the Nexus-6 Replicants can run faster than humans and lift entire grown men one handed and will shrug off anything that's not a LAPD Blaster.
** The Nexus-9 Replicants in ''Film/BladeRunner2049'' are even stronger able to burst through walls just charging through them and aren't too fussed by stab wounds or explosions.
* ''Franchise/TheChroniclesOfRiddick'':
** Despite his size and weight, Riddick is incredibly quick on his feet and is capable of performing amazing feats of physical athleticism, such as leaping great distances, running without stop for long periods of time and being strong enough to go toe to toe with a Bioraptor and mutilating it.
* ''Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy'':
** Batman/Bruce Wayne in ''Film/BatmanBegins'', due in part to Nolan's use of quick cuts for every move. He's more like TheJuggernaut in ''Film/TheDarkKnight''. ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'' brings in elements of both tropes in his fights.
** Bane's portrayal in ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'' demonstrates this as well. He is so tough he {{No Sell}}s all Batman's attacks until the latter learns to AttackItsWeakPoint and strong enough to punch holes in concrete. Yet he also has incredible reflexes and speed to match up with Batman; in the stock exchange raid, he uses a motorcycle helmet to knock out three security guards in under seven seconds.
* ''Franchise/DCExtendedUniverse''
** All the Kryptonians in ''Film/ManOfSteel''. {{Superman}} himself is a certified FlyingBrick, and while [[SuperSoldier Zod and Faora]] are trained warriors and outclass him in skill, he's shown to [[UnskilledButStrong outstrip them in raw power]] thanks to his long exposure to Earth's sun. [[TheDragon Faora]] takes it a step further and liberally employs FlashStep.
*** In the finale, Zod acclimates to Earth and masters flight. We witness a titanic clash between two {{Flying Brick}}s and ''It.Is.Brutal''.
*** In ''Film/JusticeLeague2017'', [[spoiler:when a CameBackWrong Superman is [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomping]] the rest of the heroes, the Flash tries to run around behind him while he's distracted. There's a BulletTime sequence as the Flash runs, with everyone else appearing motionless, then Superman ''turns his head and [[DeathGlare glares]] right at him.'' Barry makes the mother of all OhCrap faces as he realizes that Superman can keep up with him.]] He also uses the flash step fast enough to catch even Wonder Woman by surprise.
** [[Film/WonderWoman2017 Wonder Woman]] is essentially a beautiful amazonian [[https://youtu.be/PaGi_qjfTpw?t=16 wrecking ball]]. She can go toe-to-toe against Kryptonians and in the climactic battle with Doomsday, she's able to more than keep up with the behemoth, block its blows, getting smashed through rubble and debris and comes away unscathed.
** Batman also qualifies, at least by [[BadassNormal human standards]]. At one point, he's seen clearing house on twenty mooks in no time and demonstrates skill, agility, speed and strength with a fighting display straight out of the Arkham games. Keep in mind that until ''Series/Titans2018'', this was the ''oldest Batman to be depicted in live action''.
** Doomsday takes Kryptonian strength and amps it UpToEleven in a body of feral and uncontrolled rage.
** ''Film/{{Aquaman|2018}}'' has enough strength to lift a submarine, tank getting shot in the chest with a grenade launcher and swim at speeds of at least Mach 4.6. as he can create sonic booms in the water behind him. Even againist stronger foes like Steppenwolf he was still able to send the New God flying with a blow of his quindent.
** The eponymous [[Film/SHAZAM2019 Shazam]], the villain Doctor Sivana [[spoiler: and the rest of the kids]] are literal [[ShockAndawe Lighting]] [[FlyingBrick Bruisers]].
%% * ''Film/{{Elysium}}'': Max, Kruger, Drakey, and Crowe all qualify.
* Martin Brundle/[[HalfHumanHybrid Martinfly]] from ''Film/TheFlyII'' after he fully mutates. Unlike his father in [[Film/TheFly1986 the first film]] (who got his genes mashed together with those of a fly, which slowly transformed him into a strong, but [[BodyHorror sickly and asymmetrical]] monstrosity), Martin was born with those genes, meaning not only he's completely lucid, but his insect form is much more natural and viable. He's remarkably fast and capable of leaping great distances, strong enough to fold a grown man in half (''[[CruelAndUnusualDeath backwards]]'') and toss another one across the room. A bullet to the torso only very temporarily slows him down, if he wasn't outright feigning injury.
* ''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}'' and ''Film/MonsterVerse'':
** While he's usually a MightyGlacier, Godzilla himself was this in the Millennium era, having all his usual strength, [[BreathWeapon Atomic Breath]] but also [[InASingleBound able to make great leaps]], and do body slams as well. Though the results can be little [[{{Narm}} Narmtastic]]. [[spoiler:''Film/GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters2019'' shows that the [[{{Acrofatic}} bulky big G can be frighteningly fast if he wants to]], as he can charge on land like a rhino, and gracefully swim underwater with excellent mobility. Combining those physical abilities and traits with the HomeFieldAdvantage, Godzilla would successfully kill King Ghidorah underwater, [[NiceJobBreakingItHero until the military launches a nuke at them]].]]
** Titanosaurus is one of the few Kaijus who can toss Godzilla around ''like a pillow'', in addition to being extremely durable, able to jump high, and swim very fast.
** King Caesar has a deadly combination of speed, strength, agility, and toughness, along with surprising various martial arts techniques for his size. This makes him one of Goji's toughest foes and allies.
** King Ghidorah is just as strong and tough as Godzilla but thanks to a {{Flight}} speed that can reach over Mach 3, he's certainly more of a Lightning Bruiser than his titular rival is usually presented as.
** A lot of the HumongousMecha such as Mechagodzilla or M.O.G.U.E.R.A. can jump very high, move shocking fast and have plenty of firepower.
** Rodan, especially in ''Film/GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters2019'', where he can outpace fighter jets going at 7,500 mph and perform a 360° spin mid-flight, as well being strong and tough enough to fight Godzilla, Mothra, and the aforementioned Ghidorah.
** [[Film/KongSkullIsland King Kong]] lacks any powers like the previous examples, but he makes up for it with sheer primate agility to match his strength and durability. Technically he's only a teenager, yet he's been fighting and beating the lesser Kaiju that roam the Skull Island ''for decades''.
** Monster X, who's essentially the badass FinalBoss of ''Film/GodzillaFinalWars'' gave Godzilla himself a hell of a fight. He was equal in strength to Godzilla and staggered him with a backhand and TailSlap, great agility and speed, and was the ONLY kaiju to actually survive a blast from Godzilla's Atomic Breath. [[NoSell Not only did he shrug it off quickly]], but X was also able to retaliate with his Gravity Beams that brought Godzilla down to his knees.
* In ''Film/IpMan2'', the Twister is not only as fast as Master Hung and Ip, but stronger and tougher. He holds the distinction of being the only character to knock Ip down onscreen.
* [[Film/ConanTheBarbarian2011 The 2011 version]] of Conan. The film is much TruerToTheText when it comes to the legendary barbarian's fighting style than the Arnie ones, and while he believably comes off as CharlesAtlasSuperpower incarnate; despite being played by the very muscular and 6'4" tall Creator/JasonMomoa, he also demonstrates all the ferocity, speed and agility that makes the character TheDreaded in Howard's stories.
* The ''TyrannosaurusRex'' from ''Film/JurassicPark''. Hammond clocked her at thirty-two miles per hour and she's the largest and strongest carnivore on the island. This was TruthInTelevision, as the real ''T. rex'' was likely a capable runner. Subverted with the ''Velociraptors'' in the same film. As well as being highly intelligent, they are incredibly fast. But despite being perfectly capable of running down a human, they're no match for the ''T. rex''.
** And in ''Film/JurassicWorld'', the genetic chimera known as ''Indominus rex'' takes this UpToEleven, largely because it is in fact based on ''T. rex'' DNA, along with a few other things (like [[spoiler:[[RaptorAttack ''Velociraptor'']]]]).
* In ''Film/KungFuHustle'', The Beast is super strong and super fast even by the standards of the martial artists in the film. He demonstrates this to the Axe Gang who initially underestimate him due to his appearance by firing a handgun a few inches from his head and [[BulletCatch catching the bullet]]. And he's also so tough that most of the martial artists' attacks don't seem to bother him at all.
* In the ''Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse'':
** [[spoiler: Obadiah Stane[=/=]Iron Monger]] in the ''Film/IronMan'' film could be considered one of these; his suit (which is built like a Tank) is fast enough to catch up with Tony's despite Tony's smaller suit and head-start, while also being stronger to boot.
** For that matter, [[FlyingBrick Iron Man]] himself, Tony in his suits is strong enough to fight [[Film/TheAvengers2012 Thor]], [[Film/AvengersAgeofUltron Hulk]] [[spoiler: and even [[Film/AvengersInfinityWar freaking Thanos]] the Mad Titan]]. As for speed, Tony can fly faster than two F-22 Raptors who can go at 2,414 km/h as well as literally catching to speeding nuclear missile (probably going at 7,500 mph), grab it and then guide it through a portal into space. Tony's armors are crazy durable too, his third suit could shrug off tank rounds and his sixth suit could tank blows from Mjølnir.. the same hammer which knocked the Hulk over.
** ''Film/IronMan2'' has Ivan Vanko AKA Whiplash aside from his namesake whips which are fast and powerful enough slice through multiple race cars likely going at 375 km/h, he also survives getting hit with a car multiple times. If that wasn't enough he gets PoweredArmor similar in to Iron Monger at the end forcing Tony and Rhoedy to use a BeamOWar-CombinationAttack to beat him.
** ''Film/{{Thor}}'' is a literal version of this trope because he is the God of Thunder and Lightning. He's strong enough to throw his hammer through multiple Frost giants at a time, has the toughness to match, and he flies. Very, very fast. Fast enough to put a hole clean through an ice beast. [[spoiler: In ''Film/ThorRagnarok'' after Odin posthumously teaches Thor that [[DropTheHammer Mjolnir]] is just conduit [[ItWaswithYouAllAlong for his lighting]], Thor takes his father's advice to heart and channels the [[https://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/11127/111270097/6323439-7136295244-71b96.gif speed and power of a lightning bolt]] made of pure badass.]]
** The Incredible Hulk in ''Film/TheAvengers2012'' is [[https://static.comicvine.com/uploads/scale_super/11/117031/5485468-4599959352-14921.gif remarkably fast]] for a huge green rage monster as poor Black Widow discovers when he starts chasing her down. It's especially evident during the final battle, when he's just plowing through the alien forces with amazing agility, smacking giant alien monsters around, and shrugging off any hits he takes. It's even emphasized when he, more or less good-naturedly, punches Thor out of frame and, later and much less good-naturedly, snatches Loki off his feet and literally wipes the floor with him -- in both cases before the Asgardians can even ''blink.''
** Vision is the true FlyingBrick of the Avengers, in ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'' he flies faster than War Machine and can rip Ultron bots apart as easily as Hulk does.
** Gamora, Drax and Groot in ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy'' they hit harder, move faster and can tank greater damage than Quill, Rocket and Mantis can.
*** Nebula is this too being a {{Cyborg}}, Ronan as well as seen in his fist fight with Drax
** Both Captain America and Bucky Barnes the Winter Soldier demonstrate above human reflexes, speed and strength in the [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier second film]] and subsequent appearances. It might not be as jawdropping as the other examples of this trope in the [=MCU=], but it's nonetheless quite impressive. Cap with his shield has the charging speed of a human cannon ball; being able to [[ShieldBash smash]] straight through solid walls like cardboard.
*** [[spoiler: Cap becomes a literal Lightning Bruiser in ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' when he wields Mjølnir]].
** Black Panther thanks to the [[SuperSerum Heart Shaped Herb]] is strong and tough enough to go toe-to-toe with Captain America and the Winter Soldier and fast enough to outrun them, and he is also, fitting his big cat motif, impressively acrobatic. In ''Film/{{Black Panther|2018}}'' T'challa can bring down a charging Rhino who are the Lightning Bruisers of the animal kingdom in RealLife capable of going 50 km/h, Black Panther ''is a beast''.
** [=MCU=]'s Spider-Man seems like a FragileSpeedster, but as the Winter Soldier and Falcon unfortunately discovered in ''[[Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar Civil War]]'' he's a PintSizedPowerhouse. Spidey is capable of moving faster than bullets and at one point dodged Bucky throwing a bench at him [[IntheBack from behind]] thanks to his [[CombatClairvoyance Spider-Sense]]. As for strength Peter Parker can lift massive chunks of concrete off himself and briefly hold a split ferry together in ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'', he's [[SuperToughness pretty]] [[MadeOfIron durable]] too getting up after being run ''over by a train'' in ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome''. Most impressively in ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'' Spidey can smash [[TheBrute Cull Obsidian]] with a taxi then later is able to stagger the HeroKiller Thanos with kicks and punches to the face.
** [[Film/CaptainMarvel2019 Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel]] [[spoiler: thanks to the Space Stone]] is super strong (she stopped a massive missile), super-fast (she can travel across the [[FasterThanLightTravel solar system in no time at all]]) and tough enough to plow straight through space ships. [[spoiler: In ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' she single-handedly destroys the Black Order’s starship and even puts Thanos briefly on the ropes]].
** Thanos himself is probably the biggest example of this in the whole Marvel cinematic universe so far, being able to go head to head and beat the Hulk in 30 seconds without even using the stones, with the stones he can destroy and throw a moon. In addition, Thanos can [[InvincibleVillain barely]] feel pain, only getting a scratch from Iron Man and being able to survive Thor's Stormbreaker getting logged in his chest. Interestingly Thanos unlike what you'd expect from this trope isn't even seen moving that fast aside from the start when he beats Hulk, the easy justification is that Thanos ''doesn't need'' swiftness when he can curb stomp everybody with strength and power alone. Even then Thanos has SuperReflexes seen when he catches the speedy Spider-Man and Black Panther out of mid-air. [[spoiler: Played straight in ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' Thanos shows even [[BroughtDownToBadass without]] the [[TrickedOutGloves Gauntlet]] he’s strong, fast and durable enough to fight the aforementioned Iron Man, Thor and Captain America in a three on one fight]].
* In ''Film/MasterAndCommander'', the ''Acheron'', the enemy ship that Captain Aubrey and the crew of the HMS ''Surprise'' are pursuing, is a fictional sister ship to the six super-frigates that the fledgling US Navy built (see the Ships section in "Real Life" category for this trope for details). As such, she can NoSell the ''Surprise'''s cannon fire to her hull... [[AttackItsWeakPoint but not concentrated fire on the base of her mainmast,]] or raking fire from behind.
* Agents in ''Franchise/TheMatrix'' can leap from rooftop to rooftop, are strong enough to punch holes in concrete, tough enough to survive falls off a skyscraper and fast enough to dodge bullets. The human resistance are this as well within the Matrix, but to a lesser degree, Neo's speed matching Agent Smith's is one of the first signs that he is The One. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] because they exist in a simulated environment where the laws of physics don't apply.
** Neo and Agent Smith eventually become the ultimate expression of this by the end of the trilogy, both evolving into [[FlyingBrick Flying Bricks]] who lay waste to an entire city between them.
* The Australian Jaeger, Striker Eureka from ''Film/PacificRim''. Despite being the fastest of any of the unveiled Jaegers, it's easily a match in strength and durability to the MightyGlacier Russian Jaeger that out masses it by 560 tons. That said, considering size and scale of the Jaegers, 560 isn't a massive difference in weight. Justified, Cherno may have about 30% more mass than Striker, but Striker has four generations on Cherno.
* All robots in ''Film/RealSteel'' are big, armored, and heavy. And yet they move no different than a heavyweight boxer. Atom even more so, as he is smaller than an average fighting bot (but still bigger than a human), while possessing a lot more armor (he can shrug off punches that shatter latest-generation contenders).
* Danny Bateman in ''Film/TheReplacements2000''. He plays on the defensive line, so you expect him to be strong. What you ''don't'' expect, is him crashing through the other team's blockers after the snap, and tackling the quarter-back before he's had the chance to take two steps back. The guy's day job? A one-man SWAT team.
%% * The Creator/SamRaimi ''Film/SpiderManTrilogy''
* In ''Film/StarTrekIntoDarkness'', [[spoiler: [[GeneralRipper Admiral Marcus]]]] commissions the U.S.S. ''Vengeance'', a beast of a starship (called "[[TheDreadedDreadnought Dreadnought-class]]" in-movie) that is designed to run down enemy starships while at warp and tear them to shreds.
** BigBad SuperSoldier John Harrison [[spoiler: aka Khan Noonien Singh]] qualifies, being the physically strongest and toughest character in the film series seen so far, as well as being lightning fast in close combat.
* ''Film/StarTrekNemesis'' has the warbird ''Scimitar'', which is faster and more maneuverable than the ''Enterprise'' as well as having [[MoreDakka more guns]] and better DeflectorShields. Even the combined firepower of the ''Enterprise'' and two Romulan ''Valdore''-class warbirds isn't enough to destroy her.
* ''Franchise/StarWars''
** The droideka in the prequels. It can roll into a ball and move at ridiculous speed, and when it unrolls, it's protected by a deflector shield and a pair of rapid-fire blaster cannons. In the films, they could drive off even Jedi. It's weakness? It can't deflect or shoot while it's rolling around, and it often has to lose the shield to reduce expenses. It's also revealed in the ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith'' novelization that their shields are precisely tuned to be used only when standing upright, so if one can be knocked over, its generator will short out.
** Yoda becomes this in the prequels, when the usually OldMaster drops his staff and pulls out his lightsaber to fight Count Dooku he becomes a green-blur forcing Dooku to threaten the fallen Obi-Wan and Anakin as to escape from Yoda. Yoda is truly the definition of a PintSizedPowerhouse, as for the lightning part of this trope [[spoiler: Yoda summons a literal lighting bolt in the ''Film/TheLastJedi'']].
** Darth Maul... thanks to being played by Ray Park. Maul combines his [[DoubleWeapon double-sided lightsaber]] with martial arts to kick the crap out of Qui Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan with CombatParkour, he is still the most ninja-like Sith Lord in movies to this date.
*** But we can't forget the badass who beat Maul: Obi-Wan who after seeing Maul kill Qui Gon got [[ExtremeMeleeRevenge extremely]] pissed and not only [[https://data.whicdn.com/images/30058252/original.gif dodged]] Maul's kicks but proceeded to slice Maul [[HalfTheManHeUsedToBe in two]]. Even as a old man Obi-Wan still has SuperReflexes as the Doctor Cornelius and Ponda Baba found out when they attacked Luke in Mos Eisley cantina.
** [[BigBad Palpatine]], as well. During his duel with Maul and Savage, he not only outclasses them in terms of swordplay, but proves to be much faster than either of them, as well as matching them in feats of strength, and doesn't show any signs of tiring. There's also his surprising [[https://thumbs.gfycat.com/FrigidTenseDunnart-max-1mb.gif spinning move]] which made it into subsequent video games.
** Anakin Skywalker is definitely this trope in ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith'', since he's at the peak of his abilities as TheChosenOne. Since [[Film/AttackOfTheClones the last film]] he's become much stronger and faster and takes down MasterSwordsman Count Dooku (who trounced him the first time they fought) and even though he's eventually defeated by his mentor Obi-Wan, it's still only after a hell of a fight. WordOfGod says that if he hadn't turned evil and become the HandicappedBadass we know as Darth Vader , he would've become the most powerful Jedi who ever lived and could have defeated Palpatine, something even [[OldMaster Yoda]] couldn't do.
*** Hey now, even with the walking life-support Vader is an ''absolute machine'' as ''Film/RogueOne'' shows, where he deflects dozens of blaster shots and acts as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxL8bVJhXCM the human-blender]] to some extremely-unlucky rebels. This scene showcases that Annie was kinda [[IAmNotLeftHanded holding back against]] Obi-Wan and Luke, and he could've really let loose if he wanted to and he did kill Palpatine let's not forget.
** Speaking of the Skywalkers, Luke when he became a Jedi butchers the whole of Jabba's crew in mere minutes when he gets his Lightsaber back as well overpowering dear old dad Vader in the climax. Luke also has SuperReflexes, as he cuts a speeder bike out of mid air with his lightsaber, not to mention to the [[Film/TheMatrix Matrix]] [[SwordLimbo dodge]] he does against Kylo in the climax of ''Film/TheLastJedi'' [[spoiler: though he was a AstralProjection there]].
** Kylo has the raw destructive power of his uncle and grandfather, when chasing Rey through the forest on Star Killer-base he cuts over multiple trees with his tri-saber (faster than any real chain saw could). Kylo is also the first force user in the movies to stop a blaster volley [[BulletDodgesYou in mid air]]. Kylo also tanked getting hit with Chewie’s bowcaster and getting slashed by Rey in the face.
** Speaking of which Rey herself, can outrun tie-fighter blasts, defeat Kylo in one on one match and shred Elite Praetorian Guard to pieces all despite [[StrongButUnskilled not having more]] than a couple basic lessons in Jedi training. Rey can also take more of a beating than most female characters in Star Wars which overall makes her a CuteBruiser.
** Star Destroyers. The heavy anchors of the Imperial fleet and only matched by the very heaviest Rebel ships, but it is demonstrated in the first two movies that they can keep pace with the ''Falcon'' when going flat out (the ''Falcon'''s advantage is that they turn like a brick). Being able to outrun them ''at all'' is rare enough that Han has it as central to his boasting in his first scene. Oddly enough this gets cut in almost all adaptations, which make them a MightyGlacier.
** The Rebel's [=MC85=] Star Cruiser or ''Raddus'' from ''Film/TheLastJedi'' which showcases exactly [[http://img.saraba1st.com/forum/201801/22/210455o71f22a96322l8c9.jpg what]] [[https://78.media.tumblr.com/19f2f81adc725ff79ef26fcadc39fa7b/tumblr_p2d9nvdLnd1ul06x7o5_540.gif happens]] if you Hyperspace into another ship.
** The iconic Millennium Falcon. It's fast enough to keep up with smaller fighters, tough enough to tank hits from capital ships, and packed with enough firepower to wipe out entire squadron of TIE fighters. Even [[Film/TheForceAwakens 30 years after it's last major combat outing]], it can shrug off the scorching heat and rough sandstorms of Jakku, withstand the frigid coldness of the Starkiller planet, and can even plow through an entire forest without any real damage. Who knew that a scoundrel and his Wookie friend could turn a dull civilian freighter into a CoolStarship that can outperform even military-grade capital ships and fighters.
** But you don't have to be either a Jedi or Starship to be LightningBruiser in ''Franchise/StarWars'' as Chirrut Imwe proves in ''Film/RogueOne'' where despite being [[BlindWeaponMaster blind]] he takes down a whole Stormtrooper squad in seconds ''with a stick''.
* In ''Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2014'', the greater size and weight these incarnations of the Turtles possess don't seem to do much in slowing down their traditionally acrobatic abilities. Special mention goes to Raphael, who has shoulders bigger than truck tires but is flipping and ninja-ing with the best of them, and even manages to sneak into the back of the Fenwick Express without April or Vernon hearing him. The Shredder's PoweredArmor also allows him to retain his swift fighting style.
* The Franchise/{{Terminator}} is fast, superhumanly strong, ''and'' incredibly tough, and the later movies showed them getting progressively faster and meaner. Between the [[Film/TheTerminator original]], [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay Uncle Bob]], the [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay T-1000]], the [[Film/Terminator3RiseOfTheMachines T-X]], [[Series/TerminatorTheSarahConnorChronicles Cameron, Cromartie, Catherine Weaver]], [[Film/TerminatorSalvation Marcus]], [[Film/TerminatorGenisys Pops]], [[Film/TerminatorDarkFate and the Rev-9]] there's no shortage of these tough, fast, and very literal killing machines.
** [[SuperSoldier Grace]] from ''Dark Fate'' is the sole [[{{Cyborg}} mostly human]] example being super strong, fast and tough enough to effectively match Terminators in combat. The downside is [[RealityEnsues she's still human]] unlike the above examples thus Grace risks [[HeroicRRoD burning herself out by fighting]] and does so.
* The Film/{{Transformers}} are incredibly fast and graceful despite being made of huge, durable metal parts.
* ''Film/XMenFilmSeries''
** Toad from ''Film/XMen1''. Given it's [[Film/ThePhantomMenace Darth Maul]] portraying him...
** The Juggernaut from ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' is big and strong, while also fast (particularly because he can't be stopped).
** The Liev Schrieber version of Sabretooth in ''Film/XMenOriginsWolverine''.
** Hank Mccoy aka Beast, a GeniusBruiser who tangles with Sentinels and is fast and tough enough to trounce Magneto in both timelines.
** Wolverine may be even more of Lightning Bruiser than usually is in the comics since he's played by 6'2 Hugh Jackman so when he goes on a [[UnstoppableRage berserker rage]] e.g [[https://youtu.be/miFhExUWCX8?t=7 the end]] of ''Film/{{Logan}}'' Wolvie feels utterly unstoppable.

!!Films -- Animated:
* [[EvilSorcerer Jafar]] in ''{{WesternAnimation/Aladdin}}'', when ScaledUp to his [[OneWingedAngel giant cobra form]]. [[TruthInTelevision Just like a real cobra]], he is ''REALLY'' fast and [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever his huge size]] makes him very powerful. While he's [[AvertedTrope not]] [[GiantEqualsInvincible invulnerable]], he does take a sword wound that would kill or cripple a human with no more than a momentary cry of pain.
* The titular man turned monster from ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'', he noticeably moves ''very'' fast at some points [[FasterThanTheyLook despite his size]], Beast can also take on an entire wolf pack and kick acclaimed hunter Gatson's ass.
* Gru from ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe'' has great reaction speed, an impressively quick dash, is fairly skilled in hand-to-hand combat, possesses several inventions with great destructive power like his FreezeRay, and is remarkably good at getting back up after taking serious abuse, as per IronButtMonkey standards
* Io from ''WesternAnimation/EscapeFromPlanetEarth''. A genuine example.
* In ''Anime/FinalFantasyVIIAdventChildren'':
** Cloud has exceptional reflexes and speed, including the ability to keep up with and fight flashstepping opponents such as Loz and blocking gunfire from Yazoo while riding (and jumping on and off of) speeding motorcycles. He also has the strength to carrying a large man like [[TheBigGuy Barret]] with one hand while easily leaping multiple stories in height. As for hitting power, Cloud has quite an array of ImplausibleFencingPowers, combined with the strength to slice apart huge chunks of rubble and smack down a giant monster out of the sky. Additionally, Cloud has the durability to withstand a head-on energy blast from Bahamut Sin, survive being smashed through buildings and getting impaled in the chest by Sephiroth, followed by getting shot through the chest again with a magic-enhanced gunshot by Yazoo. And he needs every bit of that strength, speed, and durability to barely keep up with Sephiroth.
** Kadaj, Loz, and Yazoo are basicially Sephiroth-lites, having Sephiroth's extraordinary speed, strength, and durability to a slightly lesser degree. Loz is strong enough to stop a speeding motorcycle by digging his "Dual Hound" weapon into the ground, then throwing that motorcycle at Cloud using just lower body strength, but he can also [[FLashStep speed between locations]] so rapidly that he has virtual teleportation.
* WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}}. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] since he is a PhysicalGod BroughtDownToBadass.
* ''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon'' has the Night Fury, Toothless, easily the fastest dragon in flight, and with one of the most powerful fire blasts. Also, despite being comparatively small, he easily survives hitting the ground any time he gets shot down or loses control of his flight.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles'':
** Mr Incredible [[FasterThanTheyLook despite]] his [[TopHeavyGuy build]] can run at breakneck speeds (especially after working out), he also [[SuperStrength hits like dump truck]] and can [[SuperToughness endure]] getting a speeding train to the face.
** Elstagirl interestingly is much stronger than she looks and can [[InASingleBound clear entire buildings]] with her [[RubberMan stretchiness]]. Also thanks to her special suit she can survive three missiles exploding her jet while she [[TuckAndCover protects]] [[MamaBear her kids]]
** [[KillerRobot The Omidroid]] looks, moves and hits like a wrecking ball with robotic arms. What's more, the Omnidroid is [[NighInvulnerability near invulnerable]] the only thing strong enough to hurt it [[StopHittingYourself is itself]].
* Tai Lung from WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda. ''Dear God, Tai Lung.'' Just watch his jawdropping escape from prison or his fight against the [[BadassCrew Furious Five]] for a demonstration.
* [[TruthInTelevision True to her species]], Gloria the hippo of ''WesternAnimation/{{Madagascar}}'' is capable of running great speeds despite her bulk. It's carried over to the video games, where jalapeños can be used to boost her speed.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Moana}}''
** [[GiantEnemyCrab Tamatoa]] is a fifty-foot crustacean who dances around his lair at speeds more appropriate for a creature approximately a 50th of his size. He hits like a body-building dinosaur and is unfazed by hits from [[SuperStrength Maui]] in their battle.
** [[SemiDivine Maui himself]] is strong enough to lasso the sun and pull up islands with his hook, can get knocked around by monsters several times his size and run on lava, and is surprisingly quick for his size.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Mulan}}''
** Chien-Po may look like a BigGuy MightyGlacier, (and he shows himself to be just as strong as he looks,) but he's as agile as a monkey.
** Considering that Shan Yu is able to trade blows with him during the climax, and towers over the rest of his army while still being exeptionally agile; and walks way from an ''avalanche'', he more than qualifies.
* ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'' has Miles Morales, Peter B. Parker, Gwen Stacy, Peni Parker (in her MiniMecha), Noir Peter Paker and Peter Porker who can all [[BuildingSwing swing]] at great speeds, hit with enough strength to send huge foes flying through walls and shrug off blows from heavy hitters of the RoguesGallery.
** While there's plenty of villain examples e.g Prowler, Scorpion and [[spoiler: Olivia Octavius]], Kingpin is the crowning example. Just try to imagine Gru ''on steroids'', despite being TopHeavyGuy Kingpin moves swiftly, lifts cars and can survive multiple explosions.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Tarzan}}'' just like in Edgar Rice Burroughs‘ books is easily superhuman. Given he can [[VineSwing swing]]/surf fast enough to clear entire jungles in minutes, [[InASingleBound jump ridiculously]] far, tank getting slashed in the chest by a freaking Leopard and can physically overpower a Silverback Gorilla which is certainly impossible for any normal human.
* The title character of ''WesternAnimation/WreckItRalph'' is fairly fast, able to wreck things so quickly that his fists act like a pair of jackhammers and take a fair amount of punishment. Also, [[spoiler: King Candy's Cy-Bug form]] has enough power to smack down ''Ralph'' of all people, has tough chitinous plating, and is shown to be remarkably fast.

!!Films -- Live-Action
* ''Film/AlitaBattleAngel'': Alita is incredibly fast and agile, able to do things like stand on her hands on the Motorball while it is in play, then lever her body so as to throw both the ball and herself with devastating force. In the Motorball sequence, Alita creates a high-speed MookHorrorShow, knocking and tearing off limbs and heads from the hapless cyborg assassins sent to kill her while dodging their attacks.
* ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan'': The Lizard, who is very big, very strong and ''very'' fast. [[HealingFactor And can heal]] from any gun wound, even MoreDakka.
* In ''Film/BladeRunner'' the Nexus-6 Replicants can run faster than humans and lift entire grown men one handed and will shrug off anything that's not a LAPD Blaster.
** The Nexus-9 Replicants in ''Film/BladeRunner2049'' are even stronger able to burst through walls just charging through them and aren't too fussed by stab wounds or explosions.
* ''Franchise/TheChroniclesOfRiddick'':
** Despite his size and weight, Riddick is incredibly quick on his feet and is capable of performing amazing feats of physical athleticism, such as leaping great distances, running without stop for long periods of time and being strong enough to go toe to toe with a Bioraptor and mutilating it.
* ''Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy'':
** Batman/Bruce Wayne in ''Film/BatmanBegins'', due in part to Nolan's use of quick cuts for every move. He's more like TheJuggernaut in ''Film/TheDarkKnight''. ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'' brings in elements of both tropes in his fights.
** Bane's portrayal in ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'' demonstrates this as well. He is so tough he {{No Sell}}s all Batman's attacks until the latter learns to AttackItsWeakPoint and strong enough to punch holes in concrete. Yet he also has incredible reflexes and speed to match up with Batman; in the stock exchange raid, he uses a motorcycle helmet to knock out three security guards in under seven seconds.
* ''Franchise/DCExtendedUniverse''
** All the Kryptonians in ''Film/ManOfSteel''. {{Superman}} himself is a certified FlyingBrick, and while [[SuperSoldier Zod and Faora]] are trained warriors and outclass him in skill, he's shown to [[UnskilledButStrong outstrip them in raw power]] thanks to his long exposure to Earth's sun. [[TheDragon Faora]] takes it a step further and liberally employs FlashStep.
*** In the finale, Zod acclimates to Earth and masters flight. We witness a titanic clash between two {{Flying Brick}}s and ''It.Is.Brutal''.
*** In ''Film/JusticeLeague2017'', [[spoiler:when a CameBackWrong Superman is [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomping]] the rest of the heroes, the Flash tries to run around behind him while he's distracted. There's a BulletTime sequence as the Flash runs, with everyone else appearing motionless, then Superman ''turns his head and [[DeathGlare glares]] right at him.'' Barry makes the mother of all OhCrap faces as he realizes that Superman can keep up with him.]] He also uses the flash step fast enough to catch even Wonder Woman by surprise.
** [[Film/WonderWoman2017 Wonder Woman]] is essentially a beautiful amazonian [[https://youtu.be/PaGi_qjfTpw?t=16 wrecking ball]]. She can go toe-to-toe against Kryptonians and in the climactic battle with Doomsday, she's able to more than keep up with the behemoth, block its blows, getting smashed through rubble and debris and comes away unscathed.
** Batman also qualifies, at least by [[BadassNormal human standards]]. At one point, he's seen clearing house on twenty mooks in no time and demonstrates skill, agility, speed and strength with a fighting display straight out of the Arkham games. Keep in mind that until ''Series/Titans2018'', this was the ''oldest Batman to be depicted in live action''.
** Doomsday takes Kryptonian strength and amps it UpToEleven in a body of feral and uncontrolled rage.
** ''Film/{{Aquaman|2018}}'' has enough strength to lift a submarine, tank getting shot in the chest with a grenade launcher and swim at speeds of at least Mach 4.6. as he can create sonic booms in the water behind him. Even againist stronger foes like Steppenwolf he was still able to send the New God flying with a blow of his quindent.
** The eponymous [[Film/SHAZAM2019 Shazam]], the villain Doctor Sivana [[spoiler: and the rest of the kids]] are literal [[ShockAndawe Lighting]] [[FlyingBrick Bruisers]].
%% * ''Film/{{Elysium}}'': Max, Kruger, Drakey, and Crowe all qualify.
* Martin Brundle/[[HalfHumanHybrid Martinfly]] from ''Film/TheFlyII'' after he fully mutates. Unlike his father in [[Film/TheFly1986 the first film]] (who got his genes mashed together with those of a fly, which slowly transformed him into a strong, but [[BodyHorror sickly and asymmetrical]] monstrosity), Martin was born with those genes, meaning not only he's completely lucid, but his insect form is much more natural and viable. He's remarkably fast and capable of leaping great distances, strong enough to fold a grown man in half (''[[CruelAndUnusualDeath backwards]]'') and toss another one across the room. A bullet to the torso only very temporarily slows him down, if he wasn't outright feigning injury.
* ''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}'' and ''Film/MonsterVerse'':
** While he's usually a MightyGlacier, Godzilla himself was this in the Millennium era, having all his usual strength, [[BreathWeapon Atomic Breath]] but also [[InASingleBound able to make great leaps]], and do body slams as well. Though the results can be little [[{{Narm}} Narmtastic]]. [[spoiler:''Film/GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters2019'' shows that the [[{{Acrofatic}} bulky big G can be frighteningly fast if he wants to]], as he can charge on land like a rhino, and gracefully swim underwater with excellent mobility. Combining those physical abilities and traits with the HomeFieldAdvantage, Godzilla would successfully kill King Ghidorah underwater, [[NiceJobBreakingItHero until the military launches a nuke at them]].]]
** Titanosaurus is one of the few Kaijus who can toss Godzilla around ''like a pillow'', in addition to being extremely durable, able to jump high, and swim very fast.
** King Caesar has a deadly combination of speed, strength, agility, and toughness, along with surprising various martial arts techniques for his size. This makes him one of Goji's toughest foes and allies.
** King Ghidorah is just as strong and tough as Godzilla but thanks to a {{Flight}} speed that can reach over Mach 3, he's certainly more of a Lightning Bruiser than his titular rival is usually presented as.
** A lot of the HumongousMecha such as Mechagodzilla or M.O.G.U.E.R.A. can jump very high, move shocking fast and have plenty of firepower.
** Rodan, especially in ''Film/GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters2019'', where he can outpace fighter jets going at 7,500 mph and perform a 360° spin mid-flight, as well being strong and tough enough to fight Godzilla, Mothra, and the aforementioned Ghidorah.
** [[Film/KongSkullIsland King Kong]] lacks any powers like the previous examples, but he makes up for it with sheer primate agility to match his strength and durability. Technically he's only a teenager, yet he's been fighting and beating the lesser Kaiju that roam the Skull Island ''for decades''.
** Monster X, who's essentially the badass FinalBoss of ''Film/GodzillaFinalWars'' gave Godzilla himself a hell of a fight. He was equal in strength to Godzilla and staggered him with a backhand and TailSlap, great agility and speed, and was the ONLY kaiju to actually survive a blast from Godzilla's Atomic Breath. [[NoSell Not only did he shrug it off quickly]], but X was also able to retaliate with his Gravity Beams that brought Godzilla down to his knees.
* In ''Film/IpMan2'', the Twister is not only as fast as Master Hung and Ip, but stronger and tougher. He holds the distinction of being the only character to knock Ip down onscreen.
* [[Film/ConanTheBarbarian2011 The 2011 version]] of Conan. The film is much TruerToTheText when it comes to the legendary barbarian's fighting style than the Arnie ones, and while he believably comes off as CharlesAtlasSuperpower incarnate; despite being played by the very muscular and 6'4" tall Creator/JasonMomoa, he also demonstrates all the ferocity, speed and agility that makes the character TheDreaded in Howard's stories.
* The ''TyrannosaurusRex'' from ''Film/JurassicPark''. Hammond clocked her at thirty-two miles per hour and she's the largest and strongest carnivore on the island. This was TruthInTelevision, as the real ''T. rex'' was likely a capable runner. Subverted with the ''Velociraptors'' in the same film. As well as being highly intelligent, they are incredibly fast. But despite being perfectly capable of running down a human, they're no match for the ''T. rex''.
** And in ''Film/JurassicWorld'', the genetic chimera known as ''Indominus rex'' takes this UpToEleven, largely because it is in fact based on ''T. rex'' DNA, along with a few other things (like [[spoiler:[[RaptorAttack ''Velociraptor'']]]]).
* In ''Film/KungFuHustle'', The Beast is super strong and super fast even by the standards of the martial artists in the film. He demonstrates this to the Axe Gang who initially underestimate him due to his appearance by firing a handgun a few inches from his head and [[BulletCatch catching the bullet]]. And he's also so tough that most of the martial artists' attacks don't seem to bother him at all.
* In the ''Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse'':
** [[spoiler: Obadiah Stane[=/=]Iron Monger]] in the ''Film/IronMan'' film could be considered one of these; his suit (which is built like a Tank) is fast enough to catch up with Tony's despite Tony's smaller suit and head-start, while also being stronger to boot.
** For that matter, [[FlyingBrick Iron Man]] himself, Tony in his suits is strong enough to fight [[Film/TheAvengers2012 Thor]], [[Film/AvengersAgeofUltron Hulk]] [[spoiler: and even [[Film/AvengersInfinityWar freaking Thanos]] the Mad Titan]]. As for speed, Tony can fly faster than two F-22 Raptors who can go at 2,414 km/h as well as literally catching to speeding nuclear missile (probably going at 7,500 mph), grab it and then guide it through a portal into space. Tony's armors are crazy durable too, his third suit could shrug off tank rounds and his sixth suit could tank blows from Mjølnir.. the same hammer which knocked the Hulk over.
** ''Film/IronMan2'' has Ivan Vanko AKA Whiplash aside from his namesake whips which are fast and powerful enough slice through multiple race cars likely going at 375 km/h, he also survives getting hit with a car multiple times. If that wasn't enough he gets PoweredArmor similar in to Iron Monger at the end forcing Tony and Rhoedy to use a BeamOWar-CombinationAttack to beat him.
** ''Film/{{Thor}}'' is a literal version of this trope because he is the God of Thunder and Lightning. He's strong enough to throw his hammer through multiple Frost giants at a time, has the toughness to match, and he flies. Very, very fast. Fast enough to put a hole clean through an ice beast. [[spoiler: In ''Film/ThorRagnarok'' after Odin posthumously teaches Thor that [[DropTheHammer Mjolnir]] is just conduit [[ItWaswithYouAllAlong for his lighting]], Thor takes his father's advice to heart and channels the [[https://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/11127/111270097/6323439-7136295244-71b96.gif speed and power of a lightning bolt]] made of pure badass.]]
** The Incredible Hulk in ''Film/TheAvengers2012'' is [[https://static.comicvine.com/uploads/scale_super/11/117031/5485468-4599959352-14921.gif remarkably fast]] for a huge green rage monster as poor Black Widow discovers when he starts chasing her down. It's especially evident during the final battle, when he's just plowing through the alien forces with amazing agility, smacking giant alien monsters around, and shrugging off any hits he takes. It's even emphasized when he, more or less good-naturedly, punches Thor out of frame and, later and much less good-naturedly, snatches Loki off his feet and literally wipes the floor with him -- in both cases before the Asgardians can even ''blink.''
** Vision is the true FlyingBrick of the Avengers, in ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'' he flies faster than War Machine and can rip Ultron bots apart as easily as Hulk does.
** Gamora, Drax and Groot in ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy'' they hit harder, move faster and can tank greater damage than Quill, Rocket and Mantis can.
*** Nebula is this too being a {{Cyborg}}, Ronan as well as seen in his fist fight with Drax
** Both Captain America and Bucky Barnes the Winter Soldier demonstrate above human reflexes, speed and strength in the [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier second film]] and subsequent appearances. It might not be as jawdropping as the other examples of this trope in the [=MCU=], but it's nonetheless quite impressive. Cap with his shield has the charging speed of a human cannon ball; being able to [[ShieldBash smash]] straight through solid walls like cardboard.
*** [[spoiler: Cap becomes a literal Lightning Bruiser in ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' when he wields Mjølnir]].
** Black Panther thanks to the [[SuperSerum Heart Shaped Herb]] is strong and tough enough to go toe-to-toe with Captain America and the Winter Soldier and fast enough to outrun them, and he is also, fitting his big cat motif, impressively acrobatic. In ''Film/{{Black Panther|2018}}'' T'challa can bring down a charging Rhino who are the Lightning Bruisers of the animal kingdom in RealLife capable of going 50 km/h, Black Panther ''is a beast''.
** [=MCU=]'s Spider-Man seems like a FragileSpeedster, but as the Winter Soldier and Falcon unfortunately discovered in ''[[Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar Civil War]]'' he's a PintSizedPowerhouse. Spidey is capable of moving faster than bullets and at one point dodged Bucky throwing a bench at him [[IntheBack from behind]] thanks to his [[CombatClairvoyance Spider-Sense]]. As for strength Peter Parker can lift massive chunks of concrete off himself and briefly hold a split ferry together in ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'', he's [[SuperToughness pretty]] [[MadeOfIron durable]] too getting up after being run ''over by a train'' in ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome''. Most impressively in ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'' Spidey can smash [[TheBrute Cull Obsidian]] with a taxi then later is able to stagger the HeroKiller Thanos with kicks and punches to the face.
** [[Film/CaptainMarvel2019 Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel]] [[spoiler: thanks to the Space Stone]] is super strong (she stopped a massive missile), super-fast (she can travel across the [[FasterThanLightTravel solar system in no time at all]]) and tough enough to plow straight through space ships. [[spoiler: In ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' she single-handedly destroys the Black Order’s starship and even puts Thanos briefly on the ropes]].
** Thanos himself is probably the biggest example of this in the whole Marvel cinematic universe so far, being able to go head to head and beat the Hulk in 30 seconds without even using the stones, with the stones he can destroy and throw a moon. In addition, Thanos can [[InvincibleVillain barely]] feel pain, only getting a scratch from Iron Man and being able to survive Thor's Stormbreaker getting logged in his chest. Interestingly Thanos unlike what you'd expect from this trope isn't even seen moving that fast aside from the start when he beats Hulk, the easy justification is that Thanos ''doesn't need'' swiftness when he can curb stomp everybody with strength and power alone. Even then Thanos has SuperReflexes seen when he catches the speedy Spider-Man and Black Panther out of mid-air. [[spoiler: Played straight in ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' Thanos shows even [[BroughtDownToBadass without]] the [[TrickedOutGloves Gauntlet]] he’s strong, fast and durable enough to fight the aforementioned Iron Man, Thor and Captain America in a three on one fight]].
* In ''Film/MasterAndCommander'', the ''Acheron'', the enemy ship that Captain Aubrey and the crew of the HMS ''Surprise'' are pursuing, is a fictional sister ship to the six super-frigates that the fledgling US Navy built (see the Ships section in "Real Life" category for this trope for details). As such, she can NoSell the ''Surprise'''s cannon fire to her hull... [[AttackItsWeakPoint but not concentrated fire on the base of her mainmast,]] or raking fire from behind.
* Agents in ''Franchise/TheMatrix'' can leap from rooftop to rooftop, are strong enough to punch holes in concrete, tough enough to survive falls off a skyscraper and fast enough to dodge bullets. The human resistance are this as well within the Matrix, but to a lesser degree, Neo's speed matching Agent Smith's is one of the first signs that he is The One. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] because they exist in a simulated environment where the laws of physics don't apply.
** Neo and Agent Smith eventually become the ultimate expression of this by the end of the trilogy, both evolving into [[FlyingBrick Flying Bricks]] who lay waste to an entire city between them.
* The Australian Jaeger, Striker Eureka from ''Film/PacificRim''. Despite being the fastest of any of the unveiled Jaegers, it's easily a match in strength and durability to the MightyGlacier Russian Jaeger that out masses it by 560 tons. That said, considering size and scale of the Jaegers, 560 isn't a massive difference in weight. Justified, Cherno may have about 30% more mass than Striker, but Striker has four generations on Cherno.
* All robots in ''Film/RealSteel'' are big, armored, and heavy. And yet they move no different than a heavyweight boxer. Atom even more so, as he is smaller than an average fighting bot (but still bigger than a human), while possessing a lot more armor (he can shrug off punches that shatter latest-generation contenders).
* Danny Bateman in ''Film/TheReplacements2000''. He plays on the defensive line, so you expect him to be strong. What you ''don't'' expect, is him crashing through the other team's blockers after the snap, and tackling the quarter-back before he's had the chance to take two steps back. The guy's day job? A one-man SWAT team.
%% * The Creator/SamRaimi ''Film/SpiderManTrilogy''
* In ''Film/StarTrekIntoDarkness'', [[spoiler: [[GeneralRipper Admiral Marcus]]]] commissions the U.S.S. ''Vengeance'', a beast of a starship (called "[[TheDreadedDreadnought Dreadnought-class]]" in-movie) that is designed to run down enemy starships while at warp and tear them to shreds.
** BigBad SuperSoldier John Harrison [[spoiler: aka Khan Noonien Singh]] qualifies, being the physically strongest and toughest character in the film series seen so far, as well as being lightning fast in close combat.
* ''Film/StarTrekNemesis'' has the warbird ''Scimitar'', which is faster and more maneuverable than the ''Enterprise'' as well as having [[MoreDakka more guns]] and better DeflectorShields. Even the combined firepower of the ''Enterprise'' and two Romulan ''Valdore''-class warbirds isn't enough to destroy her.
* ''Franchise/StarWars''
** The droideka in the prequels. It can roll into a ball and move at ridiculous speed, and when it unrolls, it's protected by a deflector shield and a pair of rapid-fire blaster cannons. In the films, they could drive off even Jedi. It's weakness? It can't deflect or shoot while it's rolling around, and it often has to lose the shield to reduce expenses. It's also revealed in the ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith'' novelization that their shields are precisely tuned to be used only when standing upright, so if one can be knocked over, its generator will short out.
** Yoda becomes this in the prequels, when the usually OldMaster drops his staff and pulls out his lightsaber to fight Count Dooku he becomes a green-blur forcing Dooku to threaten the fallen Obi-Wan and Anakin as to escape from Yoda. Yoda is truly the definition of a PintSizedPowerhouse, as for the lightning part of this trope [[spoiler: Yoda summons a literal lighting bolt in the ''Film/TheLastJedi'']].
** Darth Maul... thanks to being played by Ray Park. Maul combines his [[DoubleWeapon double-sided lightsaber]] with martial arts to kick the crap out of Qui Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan with CombatParkour, he is still the most ninja-like Sith Lord in movies to this date.
*** But we can't forget the badass who beat Maul: Obi-Wan who after seeing Maul kill Qui Gon got [[ExtremeMeleeRevenge extremely]] pissed and not only [[https://data.whicdn.com/images/30058252/original.gif dodged]] Maul's kicks but proceeded to slice Maul [[HalfTheManHeUsedToBe in two]]. Even as a old man Obi-Wan still has SuperReflexes as the Doctor Cornelius and Ponda Baba found out when they attacked Luke in Mos Eisley cantina.
** [[BigBad Palpatine]], as well. During his duel with Maul and Savage, he not only outclasses them in terms of swordplay, but proves to be much faster than either of them, as well as matching them in feats of strength, and doesn't show any signs of tiring. There's also his surprising [[https://thumbs.gfycat.com/FrigidTenseDunnart-max-1mb.gif spinning move]] which made it into subsequent video games.
** Anakin Skywalker is definitely this trope in ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith'', since he's at the peak of his abilities as TheChosenOne. Since [[Film/AttackOfTheClones the last film]] he's become much stronger and faster and takes down MasterSwordsman Count Dooku (who trounced him the first time they fought) and even though he's eventually defeated by his mentor Obi-Wan, it's still only after a hell of a fight. WordOfGod says that if he hadn't turned evil and become the HandicappedBadass we know as Darth Vader , he would've become the most powerful Jedi who ever lived and could have defeated Palpatine, something even [[OldMaster Yoda]] couldn't do.
*** Hey now, even with the walking life-support Vader is an ''absolute machine'' as ''Film/RogueOne'' shows, where he deflects dozens of blaster shots and acts as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxL8bVJhXCM the human-blender]] to some extremely-unlucky rebels. This scene showcases that Annie was kinda [[IAmNotLeftHanded holding back against]] Obi-Wan and Luke, and he could've really let loose if he wanted to and he did kill Palpatine let's not forget.
** Speaking of the Skywalkers, Luke when he became a Jedi butchers the whole of Jabba's crew in mere minutes when he gets his Lightsaber back as well overpowering dear old dad Vader in the climax. Luke also has SuperReflexes, as he cuts a speeder bike out of mid air with his lightsaber, not to mention to the [[Film/TheMatrix Matrix]] [[SwordLimbo dodge]] he does against Kylo in the climax of ''Film/TheLastJedi'' [[spoiler: though he was a AstralProjection there]].
** Kylo has the raw destructive power of his uncle and grandfather, when chasing Rey through the forest on Star Killer-base he cuts over multiple trees with his tri-saber (faster than any real chain saw could). Kylo is also the first force user in the movies to stop a blaster volley [[BulletDodgesYou in mid air]]. Kylo also tanked getting hit with Chewie’s bowcaster and getting slashed by Rey in the face.
** Speaking of which Rey herself, can outrun tie-fighter blasts, defeat Kylo in one on one match and shred Elite Praetorian Guard to pieces all despite [[StrongButUnskilled not having more]] than a couple basic lessons in Jedi training. Rey can also take more of a beating than most female characters in Star Wars which overall makes her a CuteBruiser.
** Star Destroyers. The heavy anchors of the Imperial fleet and only matched by the very heaviest Rebel ships, but it is demonstrated in the first two movies that they can keep pace with the ''Falcon'' when going flat out (the ''Falcon'''s advantage is that they turn like a brick). Being able to outrun them ''at all'' is rare enough that Han has it as central to his boasting in his first scene. Oddly enough this gets cut in almost all adaptations, which make them a MightyGlacier.
** The Rebel's [=MC85=] Star Cruiser or ''Raddus'' from ''Film/TheLastJedi'' which showcases exactly [[http://img.saraba1st.com/forum/201801/22/210455o71f22a96322l8c9.jpg what]] [[https://78.media.tumblr.com/19f2f81adc725ff79ef26fcadc39fa7b/tumblr_p2d9nvdLnd1ul06x7o5_540.gif happens]] if you Hyperspace into another ship.
** The iconic Millennium Falcon. It's fast enough to keep up with smaller fighters, tough enough to tank hits from capital ships, and packed with enough firepower to wipe out entire squadron of TIE fighters. Even [[Film/TheForceAwakens 30 years after it's last major combat outing]], it can shrug off the scorching heat and rough sandstorms of Jakku, withstand the frigid coldness of the Starkiller planet, and can even plow through an entire forest without any real damage. Who knew that a scoundrel and his Wookie friend could turn a dull civilian freighter into a CoolStarship that can outperform even military-grade capital ships and fighters.
** But you don't have to be either a Jedi or Starship to be LightningBruiser in ''Franchise/StarWars'' as Chirrut Imwe proves in ''Film/RogueOne'' where despite being [[BlindWeaponMaster blind]] he takes down a whole Stormtrooper squad in seconds ''with a stick''.
* In ''Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2014'', the greater size and weight these incarnations of the Turtles possess don't seem to do much in slowing down their traditionally acrobatic abilities. Special mention goes to Raphael, who has shoulders bigger than truck tires but is flipping and ninja-ing with the best of them, and even manages to sneak into the back of the Fenwick Express without April or Vernon hearing him. The Shredder's PoweredArmor also allows him to retain his swift fighting style.
* The Franchise/{{Terminator}} is fast, superhumanly strong, ''and'' incredibly tough, and the later movies showed them getting progressively faster and meaner. Between the [[Film/TheTerminator original]], [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay Uncle Bob]], the [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay T-1000]], the [[Film/Terminator3RiseOfTheMachines T-X]], [[Series/TerminatorTheSarahConnorChronicles Cameron, Cromartie, Catherine Weaver]], [[Film/TerminatorSalvation Marcus]], [[Film/TerminatorGenisys Pops]], [[Film/TerminatorDarkFate and the Rev-9]] there's no shortage of these tough, fast, and very literal killing machines.
** [[SuperSoldier Grace]] from ''Dark Fate'' is the sole [[{{Cyborg}} mostly human]] example being super strong, fast and tough enough to effectively match Terminators in combat. The downside is [[RealityEnsues she's still human]] unlike the above examples thus Grace risks [[HeroicRRoD burning herself out by fighting]] and does so.
* The Film/{{Transformers}} are incredibly fast and graceful despite being made of huge, durable metal parts.
* ''Film/XMenFilmSeries''
** Toad from ''Film/XMen1''. Given it's [[Film/ThePhantomMenace Darth Maul]] portraying him...
** The Juggernaut from ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' is big and strong, while also fast (particularly because he can't be stopped).
** The Liev Schrieber version of Sabretooth in ''Film/XMenOriginsWolverine''.
** Hank Mccoy aka Beast, a GeniusBruiser who tangles with Sentinels and is fast and tough enough to trounce Magneto in both timelines.
** Wolverine may be even more of Lightning Bruiser than usually is in the comics since he's played by 6'2 Hugh Jackman so when he goes on a [[UnstoppableRage berserker rage]] e.g [[https://youtu.be/miFhExUWCX8?t=7 the end]] of ''Film/{{Logan}}'' Wolvie feels utterly unstoppable.

** The Incredible Hulk in ''Film/TheAvengers2012'' is [[https://static.comicvine.com/uploads/scale_super/11/117031/5485468-4599959352-14921.gif remarkably fast]] for a huge green rage monster as poor Black Widow discovers when he starts chasing her down. It's especially evident during the final battle, when he's just plowing through the alien forces with amazing agility, smacking giant alien monsters around, and shrugging off any hits he takes. In fact, only two villains have been shown able to penetrate the Hulk's super tough skin, are The Abomination and Hela's massive undead Wolf Fenris.

** Thanos himself is probably the biggest example of this in the whole Marvel cinematic universe so far, being able to go head to head and beat the Hulk in 30 seconds without even using the stones, with the stones he can destroy and throw a moon. In addition, Thanos can [[InvincibleVillain barely]] feel pain, only getting a scratch from Iron Man and being able to survive Thor's Stormbreaker getting logged in his chest. Interestingly Thanos unlike what you'd expect from this trope isn't even seen moving that fast aside from the start where he beats Hulk, the easy justification is that Thanos ''doesn't need'' swiftness when he can curb stomp everybody with power. Even then Thanos has SuperReflexes seen when he catches the speedy Spider-Man and Black Panther out of mid-air.

* ''Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy'':
** Batman/Bruce Wayne in ''Film/BatmanBegins'', due in part to Nolan's use of quick cuts for every move. He's more like TheJuggernaut in ''Film/TheDarkKnight''. ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'' brings in elements of both tropes in his fights.
** Bane's portrayal in ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'' demonstrates this as well. He is so tough he {{No Sell}}s all Batman's attacks until the latter learns to AttackItsWeakPoint and strong enough to punch holes in concrete. Yet he also has incredible reflexes and speed to match up with Batman; in the stock exchange raid, he uses a motorcycle helmet to knock out three security guards in under seven seconds.



* ''Franchise/TheChroniclesOfRiddick'':
** Despite his size and weight, Riddick is incredibly quick on his feet and is capable of performing amazing feats of physical athleticism, such as leaping great distances, running without stop for long periods of time and being strong enough to go toe to toe with a Bioraptor and mutilating it.

* ''Franchise/DCExtendedUniverse''
** All the Kryptonians in ''Film/ManOfSteel''. {{Superman}} himself is a certified FlyingBrick, and while [[SuperSoldier Zod and Faora]] are trained warriors and outclass him in skill, he's shown to [[UnskilledButStrong outstrip them in raw power]] thanks to his long exposure to Earth's sun. [[TheDragon Faora]] takes it a step further and liberally employs FlashStep.
*** In the finale, Zod acclimates to Earth and masters flight. We witness a titanic clash between two {{Flying Brick}}s and ''It.Is.Brutal''.
*** In ''Film/JusticeLeague2017'', [[spoiler:when a CameBackWrong Superman is [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomping]] the rest of the heroes, the Flash tries to run around behind him while he's distracted.

** [[Film/WonderWoman2017 Wonder Woman]] is essentially a beautiful amazonian [[https://youtu.be/PaGi_qjfTpw?t=16 wrecking ball]]. She can go toe-to-toe against Kryptonians and in the climactic battle with Doomsday, she's able to more than keep up with the behemoth, block its blows, getting smashed through rubble and debris and comes away unscathed.

At one point, he's seen clearing house on twenty mooks in no time and demonstrates skill, agility, speed and strength with a fighting display straight out of the Arkham games. Keep in mind that this is the ''oldest Batman to be depicted in live action to date''.
** Doomsday takes Kryptonian strength and amps it UpToEleven in a body of feral and uncontrolled rage.
** ''Film/{{Aquaman|2018}}'' has enough strength to lift a submarine, tank getting shot in the chest with a grenade launcher and swim at speeds of at least Mach 4.6. as he can create sonic booms in the water behind him. Even againist stronger foes like Steppenwolf he was still able to send the New God flying with a blow of his quindent.

Unlike his father in [[Film/TheFly1986 the first film]] (who got his genes mashed together with those of a fly, which slowly transformed him into a strong, but [[BodyHorror sickly and asymmetrical]] monstrosity), Martin was born with those genes, meaning not only he's completely lucid, but his insect form is much more natural and viable. He's remarkably fast and capable of leaping great distances, strong enough to fold a grown man in half (''[[CruelAndUnusualDeath backwards]]'') and toss another one across the room. A bullet to the torso only very temporarily slows him down, if he wasn't outright feigning injury.

** Titanosaurus is one of the few Kaiju who can toss Godzilla around ''like a pillow'' in addition to being extremely durable and able to jump high and swim very fast.
** King Caesar has a deadly combination of speed, strength, agility, toughness along with surprising various martial arts techniques for his size. Making him one of Goji's toughest foes.
** King Ghidorah is just as strong and tough as Godzilla but thanks to a {{Flight}} speed that can reach over Mach 3, he's certainly more of a Lightning Bruiser than his titular rival is usually presented as.

** Rodan especially in [[Film/GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters 2019 film]] where he can outpace fighter jets going at 7,500 mph and perform a 360° spin mid-flight as well being strong and tough enough to fight Godzilla, Mothra, and the aforementioned Ghidorah.
** [[Film/KongSkullIsland King Kong]] while he lacks any powers like the previous examples, makes up for it with sheer primate agility, to match his strength and durability. Technically he's only a teenager, yet his been fighting and beating the lesser Kaiju that roam the Skull Island ''for decades''.
** Monster X, who's essentially the badass FinalBoss of ''Film/GodzillaFinalWars'' gave Godzilla himself a hell of a fight. He was equal in strength to Godzilla and staggered him with a backhand and TailSlap, great agility and speed, and was the ONLY kaiju to actually survive a blast from Godzilla's Atomic Breath. [[NoSell Not only did he shrug it off quickly]], but X was also able to retaliate with his Gravity Beams that brought Godzilla down to his knees.
* In ''Film/IpMan2'', the Twister is not only as fast as Master Hung and Ip, but stronger and tougher. He holds the distinction of being the only character to knock Ip down onscreen.
* [[Film/ConanTheBarbarian2011 The 2011 version]] of Conan. The film is much TruerToTheText when it comes to the legendary barbarian's fighting style than the Arnie ones, and while he believably comes off as CharlesAtlasSuperpower incarnate; despite being played by the very muscular and 6'4" tall Creator/JasonMomoa, he also demonstrates all the ferocity, speed and agility that makes the character TheDreaded in Howard's stories.
* The ''TyrannosaurusRex'' from ''Film/JurassicPark''. Hammond clocked her at thirty-two miles per hour and she's the largest and strongest carnivore on the island. This was TruthInTelevision, as the real ''T. rex'' was likely a capable runner. Subverted with the ''Velociraptors'' in the same film. As well as being highly intelligent, they are incredibly fast. But despite being perfectly capable of running down a human, they're no match for the ''T. rex''.
** And in ''Film/JurassicWorld'', the genetic chimera known as ''Indominus rex'' takes this UpToEleven, largely because it is in fact based on ''T. rex'' DNA, along with a few other things (like [[spoiler:[[RaptorAttack ''Velociraptor'']]]]).
* In ''Film/KungFuHustle'', The Beast is super strong and super fast even by the standards of the martial artists in the film. He demonstrates this to the Axe Gang who initially underestimate him due to his appearance by firing a handgun a few inches from his head and [[BulletCatch catching the bullet]]. And he's also so tough that most of the martial artists' attacks don't seem to bother him at all.



* In ''Film/MasterAndCommander'', the ''Acheron'', the enemy ship that Captain Aubrey and the crew of the HMS ''Surprise'' are pursuing, is a fictional sister ship to the six super-frigates that the fledgling US Navy built (see the Ships section in "Real Life" category for this trope for details). As such, she can NoSell the ''Surprise'''s cannon fire to her hull... [[AttackItsWeakPoint but not concentrated fire on the base of her mainmast,]] or raking fire from behind.
* Agents in ''Franchise/TheMatrix'' can leap from rooftop to rooftop, are strong enough to punch holes in concrete, tough enough to survive falls off a skyscraper and fast enough to dodge bullets. The human resistance are this as well within the Matrix, but to a lesser degree, Neo's speed matching Agent Smith's is one of the first signs that he is The One. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] because they exist in a simulated environment where the laws of physics don't apply.
** Neo and Agent Smith eventually become the ultimate expression of this by the end of the trilogy, both evolving into [[FlyingBrick Flying Bricks]] who lay waste to an entire city between them.
* The Australian Jaeger, Striker Eureka from ''Film/PacificRim''. Despite being the fastest of any of the unveiled Jaegers, it's easily a match in strength and durability to the MightyGlacier Russian Jaeger that out masses it by 560 tons. That said, considering size and scale of the Jaegers, 560 isn't a massive difference in weight. Justified, Cherno may have about 30% more mass than Striker, but Striker has four generations on Cherno.
* All robots in ''Film/RealSteel'' are big, armored, and heavy. And yet they move no different than a heavyweight boxer. Atom even more so, as he is smaller than an average fighting bot (but still bigger than a human), while possessing a lot more armor (he can shrug off punches that shatter latest-generation contenders).



%% * The Creator/SamRaimi ''Film/SpiderManTrilogy''
* In ''Film/StarTrekIntoDarkness'', [[spoiler: [[GeneralRipper Admiral Marcus]]]] commissions the U.S.S. ''Vengeance'', a beast of a starship (called "[[TheDreadedDreadnought Dreadnought-class]]" in-movie) that is designed to run down enemy starships while at warp and tear them to shreds.
** BigBad SuperSoldier John Harrison [[spoiler: aka Khan Noonien Singh]] qualifies, being the physically strongest and toughest character in the film series seen so far, as well as being lightning fast in close combat.
* ''Film/StarTrekNemesis'' has the warbird ''Scimitar'', which is faster and more maneuverable than the ''Enterprise'' as well as having [[MoreDakka more guns]] and better DeflectorShields. Even the combined firepower of the ''Enterprise'' and two Romulan ''Valdore''-class warbirds isn't enough to destroy her.

** Titanosaurus is one of the few Kaiju who can toss Godzilla around ''like a pillow'' in addition to being extremely durable and able to jump high and swim very fast.
** King Caesar has a deadly combination of speed, strength, agility, toughness along with surprising various martial arts techniques for his size. Making him one of Goji's toughest foes.
** King Ghidorah is just as strong and tough as Godzilla but thanks to a {{Flight}} speed that can reach over Mach 3, he's certainly more of a Lightning Bruiser than his titular rival is usually presented as.

* Martin Brundle/[[HalfHumanHybrid Martinfly]] from ''Film/TheFlyII'' after he fully mutates. Unlike his father in [[Film/TheFly1986 the first film]] (who got his genes mashed together with those of a fly, which slowly transformed him into a strong, but [[BodyHorror sickly and asymmetrical]] monstrosity), Martin was born with those genes, meaning not only he's completely lucid, but his insect form is much more natural and viable. He's remarkably fast and capable of leaping great distances, strong enough to fold a grown man in half (''[[CruelAndUnusualDeath backwards]]'') and toss another one across the room. A bullet to the torso only very temporarily slows him down, if he wasn't outright feigning injury.

Spidey is capable of moving faster than bullets and at one point dodged Bucky throwing a bench at him [[IntheBack from behind]] thanks to his [[CombatClairvoyance Spider-Sense]]. As for strength Peter Parker can lift massive chunks of concrete off himself and briefly hold a split ferry together in ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'', he's [[SuperToughness pretty]] [[MadeOfIron durable]] too getting up after being run ''over by a train'' in ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome''. Most impressively in ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'' Spidey can smash [[TheBrute Cull Obsidian]] with a taxi then later is able to stagger the HeroKiller Thanos with kicks and punches to the face.
** Film/CaptainMarvel2019 [[Film/CaptainMarvel2019 Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel]] [[spoiler: thanks to the Space Stone]] is super strong (she stopped a massive missile), super-fast (she can travel across the [[FasterThanLightTravel solar system in no time at all]]) and tough enough to plow straight through space ships. [[spoiler: In ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' she single-handedly destroys the Black Order’s starship and even puts Thanos briefly on the ropes]].

* The Franchise/{{Terminator}} is fast, superhumanly strong, ''and'' incredibly tough, and the later movies showed them getting progressively faster and meaner. Between the [[Film/TheTerminator original]], [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay Uncle Bob]], the [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay T-1000]], the [[Film/Terminator3RiseOfTheMachines T-X]], [[Series/TerminatorTheSarahConnorChronicles Cameron, Cromartie, Catherine Weaver]], [[Film/TerminatorSalvation Marcus]], and [[Film/TerminatorGenisys Pops]], there's no shortage of these tough, fast, and very literal killing machines.

** [[SuperSoldier Grace]] from ''Dark Fate'' is the sole [[{{Cyborg}} mostly human]] being super strong, fast and tough enough to effectively match Terminators in combat. The downside is [[RealityEnsues she's still human]] unlike the above examples thus Grace risks [[HeroicRRoD burning herself out by fighting]] and does so.

** Monster X who's essentially the badass FinalBoss of ''Film/GodzillaFinalWars'' gave Godzilla himself a hell of a fight. He was equal in strength to Godzilla who staggered him with a backhand and TailSlap, great agility and speed, and was the ONLY kaiju to actually survive an Atomic Breath. Not only did he shrug it off quickly but was able to retaliate with his Gravity Beams that brought Godzilla down to his knee.

** ''Film/WonderWoman2017'' is essentially a beautiful amazonian [[https://youtu.be/PaGi_qjfTpw?t=16 wrecking ball]]. She can go toe-to-toe against Kryptonians and in the climactic battle with Doomsday, she's able to more than keep up with the behemoth, block its blows, getting smashed through rubble and debris and comes away unscathed.
