10	* ''Film/ActOfValor''. After [[spoiler:Lt. Rorke's HeroicSacrifice]], Chief Dave gets up and proceeds to solo the cartel and suicide bombers with barely a sound, just intense, cold, focus.
11	* ''Film/TheAddamsFamily'': Morticia's talk with Fester, when Gomez suspects he's an imposter.
12	-->'''Morticia:''' And our credo, "[[CanisLatinicus Sic gorgiamus allos subjectatos nunc]]"... "We gladly feast on those who would subdue us". Not just pretty words.
13	** The sequel ''Film/AddamsFamilyValues'' shows that Wednesday subscribes the same philosophy: when the counselors at the summer camp try to ''brainwash'' her into becoming a stereotypical happy camper and taking part to their pathetic pageant, Wednesday goes with it before returning to her typical stoic self in the middle of the pageant, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VbYZDohsHk delivers an awesome and scathing speech and then leads the unpopular children into burning down the place, only changing from her stone-faced expression for a smile before trying to burn Amanda at the stake]]. Then she and the campers roast the counselors alive to eat them, [[ContinuityNod proving that the family credo from the previous movie]] ''really'' [[BadassCreed is not just pretty words]].
14	* In ''Film/AguirreTheWrathOfGod'', when Aguirre makes his final monologue proclaiming eternal vengeance on any who would disobey him, to a raft of corpses and monkeys no less, he speaks with in a low, sedate voice. This was EnforcedMethodActing on the part of Werner Herzog. Klaus Kinski wanted to do the scene in a rage, but Herzog intentionally infuriated him off-camera until he was so exhausted that he performed the scene in what appears to be tranquil fury.
15	* In ''Film/BackstreetDreams'', Dean walks in on his wife Lucy [[BedroomAdulteryScene having sex with Paco]], and a few minutes later learns that Lucy let Paco beat Shane to stop him from crying. Dean calmly kicks both of them out of the house.
16	* ''Film/TheBigLebowski'': Walter spends most of the movie [[HairTriggerTemper blowing up over every minor inconvenience]], but [[LetsGetDangerous when things get serious in the climax]] and the Nihilists try to rob the gang, Walter just calmly says “[[PrecisionFStrike FUCK YOU]]” and proceeds to savagely beat all four of them within an inch of their lives, all without raising his voice once. Incompetent lunatic he may be, [[MuggingTheMonster but Walter is still a former soldier who fought in Vietnam]].
17	** Shortly afterwards, when Walter ruins [[spoiler:Donny’s]] funeral by [[SingleIssueWonk inserting a Vietnam rant into his eulogy]] and [[AshesToCrashes accidentally commends the deceased’s ashes into Dude’s face]], the Dude simply stands motionless and serene. His expression is halfway between calm resignation and psychotic rage. Then Walter [[BlackComedy tries to casually brush the ashes off him]], and the Dude '''explodes''' with fury.
18	%%* Film/BillyJack. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXXyms5g5ok He really tries...]]
19	* William Wallace in ''Film/{{Braveheart}}'' after his wife is killed. His expression is virtually blank from the moment he rides into the village to the moment he cuts the murderer's throat.
20	* Brandon from ''Film/{{Brightburn}}'' [[spoiler:when he killed his parents as retaliation for attempting to kill him]].
21	* In ''Film/CapeFear'', Max Cady has a quiet, permanent animal rage under his skin. And occasionally, [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown it breaks out.]] This is especially true with Robert Mitchum's portrayal. This is part of what makes him so terrifying.
22	* Christmas Present in ''Film/AChristmasCarol1999'' largely treats Scrooge as an unwelcome tag-along on his Christmas rounds, but is patient enough until Scrooge asks what will happen to Tiny Tim. Without raising his voice, Present hurls Scrooge's callous words about "the surplus population" back at him and continues on in a measured, relentless tone that Scrooge may be more unworthy and less fit to live than millions like the Cratchits, comparing him to an insect on the leaf complaining that there is too much life among his hungry brothers in the dust. You could mistake him for calm until Bob Cratchit speaks again, and Christmas Present visibly snaps out of his quiet rage to return to the task at hand.
23	-->"Man... if you be a ''man'' in your heart, forbear that wicked cant until you've discovered what the surplus really is and where it is. Will you decide what men shall live, what men shall die? It may be that in the sight of Heaven, you are more worthless and less fit to live than ''millions'' like this poor man's child. O God, to hear the insect on the leaf pronouncing there is too much life among his hungry brothers in the dust!"
24	* Eric Draven, in the big shootout in the club towards the end of ''Film/TheCrow1994'': "You're all going to die." He says it so calmly and quietly, he probably wasn't even heard over the thumping music.
25	* The ''Film/{{Daimajin}}'' Trilogy is this at its climax when the giant Idol finally awakens to wreak havoc on those whom have desecrated his holy grounds. Named the [[BigBad the evil overlords]] that are currently ruling the land.
26	* ''Film/DennisTheMenace'': George Wilson, to 6-year-old Dennis, after Dennis tries to warn him of a burglary-in-progress at his (Wilson's) home ... but causes Mr. Wilson to miss the entire life cycle (less than 15 seconds) of a plant that he had nurtured for 40 years. After Wilson destroys the dead plant, he is coolly and eerily calm as he gives Dennis the cruelest TheReasonYouSuckSpeech the kid will probably ever hear. Dennis, too young to make sense of these cruel remarks, runs off. [[spoiler:Mr. Wilson [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone eventually realizes what he's done]] and goes looking for the kid]].
27	--> '''Mr. Wilson:''' You're a pest. A menace. A selfish, spoiled little boy and I've no use for you. You took something from me that I can never get back, something that means more to me than you ever will. You understand? I don't want to see you, I don't want to know you. Get out of my way.
28	* The Man with No Name in the Film/DollarsTrilogy is a good person ([[NominalHero usually]]) who goes out of his way to help those in need, even if he is OnlyInItForTheMoney. He's also TheStoic and hardly if ever expresses his feelings. But when he gets angry, he is ''[[PrecisionFStrike fucking scary]]''.
29	-->"You see, there's two kinds of people in the world: Those with loaded guns, and those who dig. ''You dig''."
30	* If Anderson's mind scan is correct, this is Judge ''Film/{{Dredd}}'''s natural state of being.
31	* In ''Film/Drive2011'', the Driver's stoic demeanor turns out to be a thin lid on a boiling pit of rage as a horrified Irene and one hapless mook find out in the [[CurbStompBattle infamous elevator scene]].
32	* Creator/BruceLee played two kinds of character in his career: a [[NiceGuy gentle, amicable guy]] with a side of BewareTheNiceOnes, and a stoic, serious badass who could kill a man at thirty paces with just his stare.
33	** In ''Film/FistOfFury'', his character Chen ''seethes'' in nearly every moment onscreen. Perhaps the best example is the whole scene where he returns the "Sick Man of Asia" sign to the Japanese ThugDojo. Once he's done kicking all their asses, he forces two of them to rip up and eat the paper and vows next time they'll be ''eating the glass''. It's {{Averted\|Trope}} when his master is being buried, [[TearJerker and all his restraint goes out the window and he throws himself on his master's coffin and wails in anguish]]. And when he finds out the Japanese school ''murdered'' his teacher, it's cranked up to eleven.
34	** Several times in ''Film/EnterTheDragon''. At the start of Lee's match against Oharra (the man who caused his sister Su Lin's death), Oharra breaks a board in front of Lee's face and Lee doesn't flinch. He just snarls "Boards...don't hit back." And [[CurbStompBattle then he utterly humiliates and kills the bastard without breaking a sweat]]. Also, when he confronts the BigBad Mr. Han before their fight at the end:
35	-->''"You have offended my family, and you have offended the Shaolin Temple."''
36	* John Preston in ''Film/{{Equilibrium}}'' in the climax, somewhat paradoxically. Fighting for the right to feel emotion, he delivers a CurbStompBattle on the villains immediately after his polygraph readings completely flatline.
37	-->'''Preston:''' ''No. Not without incident.''
38	* Barney Ross's expression during his final fight with [[BigBad Vilain]] in ''Film/TheExpendables2''.
39	* Richard Kimble in ''Film/TheFugitive'' on realizing who the killer is. His calm demeanour only starts to crack near the very end of the film.
40	* Chili Palmer, the AntiHero of ''Film/GetShorty'' originally got his nickname on account of a HotBlooded personality. Over time though, he cooled down to the point of icy calmness and his nickname took on a new meaning. He is a LoanShark who can get payment without raising his voice or ever needing to use violence. When someone gets on his bad side, he evidences only a slight irritation.
41	-->"Look at me."
42	* Michael Corleone in ''Film/TheGodfather''. You do not desire to make him think it's [[ItsPersonal not just business]].
43	* In ''Film/HarryPotterAndThePhilosophersStone'', [[GentleGiant Hagrid]] (who's already contemptuous of the Dursleys) has this reaction when Vernon insults Albus Dumbledore, followed by giving Dudley a pig's tail. (This is in contrast to [[Literature/HarryPotterAndThePhilosophersStone the book]], where he's roaring in anger.)
44	-->"''Never'' insult Albus Dumbledore in front of me."
45	* In ''Film/{{Highlander}}'', Connor falls into this state when [[BigBad the Kurgan]] lets slip that [[spoiler:he raped [[TheLostLenore poor Heather MacLeod]] back in 1542, mistakenly thinking she was Ramirez's girlfriend[[note]]the girl likely took the secret of her rape to her grave realistically knowing her husband would attempt a doomed RoaringRampageOfRevenge against an extremely dangerous immortal warrior who would easily kill him if he found out[[/note]].]] Connor's resulting DeathGlare is ''epic'', he actually looks like he wants to ''rip'' the Kurgan's head off, and in fact the barbarian has to remind him of the "[[TruceZone No fighting on]] HolyGround" rule to restrain him and sounds genuinely ''afraid'' as he does, probably for the first time ever in his centuries-long life.
46	%%* Would-be presidential assassin Mitch Leary in ''Film/InTheLineOfFire''.
47	* When ''Film/IpMan'' challenges the ten Japanese pugilists after [[spoiler:seeing Master Liu get shot]], he is calm and focused, with only a steely DeathGlare to show his anger, even when he's [[CombatPragmatist dislocating joints and dealing out other brutality.]]
48	* The protagonist of ''Film/ISawTheDevil'' may qualify, as he gets on a revenge fest, looking very calm and cold most of the time. His fury goes on during the whole movie.
49	* ''Film/JohnWick'':
50	** The title character is this trope incarnate, gunning down mooks left and right all in the name of his RoaringRampageOfRevenge with a mask of calmness and professionalism that occasionally [[NotSoStoic slips]], showing how [[UnstoppableRage furious]] [[ItsPersonal he truly is.]]
51	** When Viggo first calls Aurelio to ask why Aurelio struck Viggo's son, he is clearly furious, but willing to give Aurelio a chance to explain himself. When Aurelio explains that Iosef [[MuggingTheMonster stole John Wick's car and killed his dog]], Viggo just says "[[ThisIsGonnaSuck Oh]]" and hangs up. Once he finds his son, he quite calmly beats the shit out of him while explaining that John is going to kill them all because of what Iosef did.
52	** In ''Film/JohnWickChapter2'', Santino blows up John's house in retaliation for John refusing to do a job for him. When John goes to meet Santino, he is visibly calm and stoic, but when Santino muses about how John is clearly considering the best way to kill him, he responds in a frigid and furious tone: "My bare hands."
53	** A variant, in ''Film/JohnWickChapter3Parabellum'''s ending. John is brought to the Bowery King moments after [[spoiler:being double-crossed and shot off the Continental by Winston]]. The Bowery King muses over John's sorry state, then makes a tirade over how he's had it up to here with the High Table, so he asks him if he's as pissed off as he is. John musters "Yeah" as a response.
54	* ''Film/KingsmanTheSecretService'':
55	** Harry Hart calmly beats the snot out of half a dozen thugs after they threaten Eggsy and make fun of him. He even politely apologises to Eggsy afterward for the scene, excusing it as his need to "let off some steam." Later in the film, he calmly kills a good portion of churchgoers while [[BrainwashedAndCrazy under the influence]] of [[BigBad Richmond Valentine’s]] SIM cards.
56	** Eggsy has a brief moment of this during the literal ShootTheDog test, even going so far as to ''point the gun at Arthur'' for a second, levelling a ''very'' cold and unsettling glare at him before backing down.
57	** Valentine also slips into this in the climax, after Eggsy [[spoiler: kills Gazelle]]. His low, hissing growl of ''"You motherfucker..."'' manages to feel like a PrecisionFStrike, despite the film's generous profanity, and [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness even his characteristic lisp is FAR less pronounced than usual]].
58	* In ''Film/LockStockAndTwoSmokingBarrels'', [[TheYardies Rory Breaker]] confronts Nick the Greek for supplying the four protagonists who stole Rory's own cannabis and sold it back to him. Rory calls Nick out and forces him to reveal the whereabouts of the protagonists on pain of death, without once raising his voice or shouting.
59	* In ''Film/TheMadMagician'', whenever Don Gallico is pushed to the point of murdering someone, he becomes, very, very calm.
60	* [[Creator/MelGibson Max Rockatansky]] displays this during his RoaringRampageOfRevenge moment in the first ''Film/MadMax1'' movie.
61	* ''Film/{{Mandy 2018}}'': After beginning his MushroomSamba, Red barely says anything for the final third of the film and his RoaringRampageOfRevenge. What little he does say is relatively quiet for a Creator/NicolasCage performance (barring VoiceOfTheLegion from the drugs), but brimming with hatred towards the man who ruined his life.
62	* Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse:
63	** Tony Stark liberating Gulmira during ''Film/IronMan1''. The whole thing plays out from the POV of the citizens. Tony doesn't say anything, nor does JARVIS, but he is obviously seething at the terrorists tormenting innocents in front of him using his company's weapons. He then hands the head of the terrorist group to the civilians he saved to deliver his just desserts, without raising his voice.
64	--->[[DoWithHimAsYouWill "He's all yours."]]
65	** In ''Film/{{The Incredible Hulk\|2008}}'', Bruce Banner is initially shown attempting to prevent his transformations through meditation. In the film's final scenes, Banner's meditation leads to him being seconds away from becoming the Hulk while outwardly appearing perfectly calm.
66	** By ''Film/{{The Avengers\|2012}}'', [[spoiler:Banner has made "Tranquil Fury" his ''normal'' resting state and he can Hulk out at a second's notice, with no drawn-out transformation sequence required. This seems to imply that his out-of-control transformations are reserved for when he's ''[[UnstoppableRage really]]'' mad (which, although it had happened earlier, was shown to require a LOT of stressful things in a short period of time)]].
67	--->[[spoiler:'''Captain America:''' Doctor Banner, now might be a really good time for you to get angry.\
68	'''Bruce Banner:''' ''[smiles]'' That's my secret, Cap. I'm ''always'' angry.]]
69	** It also goes into ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'', as Scarlet Witch tries to explain Ultron's desperation in his plans. But seeing as the last time they met, Wanda hexed Banner and caused him to go on a Hulk rampage through Johannesburg, Banner is a little less inclined to listen.
70	--->'''Captain America:''' You don't know what you're doing.\
71	'''Bruce Banner:''' And you do? ''[gestures to Wanda]'' She's not in your head?\
72	'''Wanda Maximoff:''' ''[nervously]'' I know you're angry…\
73	'''Bruce Banner:''' Oh, we're way past that. I could choke the life out of you and never change a shade.
74	** In ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', [[spoiler: following the reveal that Bucky Barnes assassinated his parents as the Winter Soldier, Tony Stark's demeanor changes immediately. No snark, barely any raising of his voice. Just quiet, icy fury as he proceeds to attack Bucky. Turns into full RoaringRampageOfRevenge minutes later]].
75	** In ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2'', after Starlord learns that [[spoiler:his father Ego murdered Starlord's mother by implanting a brain tumor in her]], he ''immediately'' pulls out his guns and starts shooting until [[spoiler:Ego]] is filled with massive holes in every part of his anatomy. And all of that without changing expression.
76	** ''Film/ThorRagnarok'': Hela starts to lose her cool when Thor returns to Asgard to take it back from her.
77	--->'''Hela:''' ''[visibly seething beneath a casual smile]'' You're still alive.
78	** In ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'', it becomes ''Thor's'' default setting after Thanos kills Heimdall and Loki, as he stoically collects himself to forge a Thanos-killing superweapon and succeeds, even at the risk of his life, through this trope. He's also calm and collected while he enters the battle in Wakanda, casually destroying Thanos's forces and ships. [[spoiler: The only moment [[ColdBloodedTorture he actually loses his calm and sadistically hurts Thanos]], [[TragicMistake it costs them the battle]].]]
79	*** Thor's shown to still be in this state by the start of ''Film/AvengersEndgame'', [[spoiler: which is most evident during then-remaining Avengers' surprise ambush against Thanos. He bursts into Thanos's hut from above and promptly slices off his Infinity Gauntlet-wielding arm with Stormbreaker without a word spoken. Even with Thanos explaining that [[YouAreTooLate he destroyed the stones and taunts them about his win being permanent]], he only listens in with visible rage. It's only after he's decided he's no longer letting Thanos live that he says anything:]]
80	----> [[spoiler: '''Rocket:''' ''[shocked anger]'' What did you do?!]]\
81	[[spoiler: '''Thor:''' ''[calmly, but firmly]'' ...[[CallBack I went for]] [[OffWithHisHead the head.]]]]
82	** When Cap, Tony, and Thor all gather for their showdown against 2014 Thanos, Thor speaks in a casual tone, all while summoning his armor and weapons, lightning crackling loudly in the sky.
83	---> '''Thor:''' ''[summoning Mjolnir and Stormbreaker to his hands]'' Let's kill him properly this time.
84	** Wanda Maximoff in spades:
85	*** ''Age of Ultron'': Immediately after Pietro dies, she walks up to an incapacitated Ultron Prime, calmly asks if he knows how she feels, [[AndShowItToYou and then rips his metal heart from his chest]]. Her facial expression is that of fury.
86	*** ''Endgame'': When she confronts 2014 Thanos on the battlefield, she's relatively calm. Her voice quavering is the only indication of how absolutely livid she is after watching his ''Infinity War'' counterpart kill Vision. She then goes on to be the closest Avenger to singlehandedly take out the Mad Titan without using the Infinity Stones.
87	---->'''Wanda Maximoff''': [[HeartbrokenBadass You... took... EVERYTHING from me!]]\
88	'''2014 Thanos''': [[FishOutOfTemporalWater I don't even know who you are!]]\
89	'''Wanda Maximoff''': [[PreAssKickingOneLiner You will]].
90	*** ''Series/WandaVision'': When Monica Rambeau breaks character and offhandedly mentions Pietro's death, Wanda coldly asks her what she said, before expelling Monica from the Hex.
91	---->'''Wanda Maximoff:''' You're not my neighbor. And you're definitely not my friend. You are a stranger, and an outsider. And right now, you are trespassing here. And I want you to leave.
92	*** Wanda is eerily calm when she leaves the Hex to confront Tyler Hayward after he tries to fire a missile at her, but her voice is seething rage. She tells him to leave, then possesses his men and has them turn their guns on him before she goes back into the Hex.
93	* In ''Film/MissionImpossible1996'', Ethan Hunt does this when [[spoiler:he realizes that, not only is his team dead, his boss thinks he's the mole]].
94	-->'''Kittridge:''' Ethan, I understand you're upset...\
95	'''Ethan:''' [[PreAssKickingOneLiner Kittridge, you've never seen me very upset.]]
96	* Franchise/MonsterVerse:
97	** ''Film/KongSkullIsland'': When [[Characters/MonsterVerseSkullIslandExpedition Lieutenant Colonel Preston Packard]] is informed that several of his men have died to Kong's attack, Packard turns around, breathes deeply, then calmly demands to know where [[ManipulativeBastard Randa]] is. Upon finding Randa, Packard makes some friendly small talk with him, then he pulls a gun on Randa and calmly tells him flat-out that he's either going to explain everything or Packard's going to put a bullet in his head.
98	** ''Film/GodzillaVsKong'': After Maia Simmons threatens [[Characters/MonsterVerseKingKong Kong]]'s young human charge Jia in the HollowEarth, Kong, upon grabbing her HEAV, doesn't roar or rage at her. He simply glares into the HEAV at her with a GiantEyeOfDoom, inducing a very justified OhCrap in her, before he calmly crushes the HEAV and everyone inside it in his hand with a relatively calm scowl of contempt on his face.
99	* The assassin named T, from the Singaporean movie ''One Last Dance'', has this as his signature style. It is shown mainly in the confrontation with his former partner-in-crime, as well as the ensuing revenge on [[spoiler:the men who raped his friend's sister]].
100	* ''Film/PlanesTrainsAndAutomobiles'': While in St. Louis, Neal tries to rent a car, but discovers that the car's gone, and when the bus leaves without him, [[RageBreakingPoint he first gets incredibly irate]] before walking all the way back to the airport, where he delivers a [[ClusterFBomb profanity-laden]] yet surprisingly subdued rant towards the clerk.
101	-->'''Clerk:''' I really don't care for the way you're speaking to me.
102	-->'''Neal:''' And I really don't care for the way your company left me in the middle of fucking nowhere with fucking keys to a fucking car that isn't fucking there. And I ''really'' didn't care to fucking walk down a fucking highway and across a fucking ''runway'' to get back here to have you smile in my fucking face. [[PunctuatedForEmphasis I want. A fucking car. Right. Fucking.]] ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis Now.]]''
103	* In ''Film/ThePrincessBride'':
104	-->'''Inigo:''' JustForFun/{{Hello}} MyNameIsInigoMontoya. YouKilledMyFather. PrepareToDie.
105	* In ''Film/RurouniKenshinKyotoInferno'', [[spoiler: Kenshin, Misao, and Eiji arrive at the Shingetsu village (which has been taken over by [[BigBad Shishio Makoto's]] forces), to find the dead bodies of Eiji's parents hanging from a huge tree in the town square. When Shishio's men come out to greet them, Kenshin simply tells Misao to look after Eiji while he proceeds systematically kick the ass of all of Shishio's men. Despite the apparent cool demeanor on the rurouni's face, one can tell he's completely furious by how vicious and unforgiving his attacks are]].
106	* ''Film/Scarface1983'' has Tony Montana doing this when he kills Manny out of rage for [[MySisterIsOffLimits sleeping with his sister, Gina]], before she revealed that they're married. In fact, instead of yelling, he looked at him in silence and shot him without saying a word.
107	* ''Film/Serenity2005'':
108	** River does this whenever she enters her battle mode created by her Alliance conditioning. After getting "switched on" by a subliminal message, she wastes a room full of rough customers -- up to and including Jayne when he tries to subdue her -- without seeming to notice what she's doing. In the climax, she voluntarily kicks ass with about as much tranquility.
109	** Zoe has a similar moment after [[spoiler:Wash is killed]]. She's shown very calmly loading her shotgun, and when the Reavers attack, she slowly rises from behind cover, blasting away, and closes into melee with them with the disturbingly calm look on her face. That all fades away when she proceeds to [[UnstoppableRage stab that Reaver to a bloody mush.]]
110	** Zoe also has a moment earlier in the film with Jayne when he can’t keep his big mouth shut. Jayne is badmouthing Mal's leadership abilities, and does so by asking Mal how many people in his platoon he got killed back in the war. Zoe, who might be the only other survivor of their platoon besides Mal, gives Jayne an ice cold DeathGlare and calmly says “you want to leave this room”. Jayne picks up the unspoken subtext, replies “damn straight I do” and scurries off.
111	* ''Film/SherlockHolmesAGameOfShadows'': Professor Moriarty is quite calm after Sherlock reveals that his plans have been foiled and he's soon to face prison time for his crimes against everyone involved. His response? Just offering to light Sherlock's pipe and smiling... while telling him of his plans for "[[CruelAndUnusualDeath the most creative of endings]]" for Watson and his wife. Clearly, it takes a lot more before Moriarty flies off the handle in a fit of rage.
112	* ''Film/{{Sleepers}}'': John and Tommy in the scene where they murder Nokes. As mafia hitmen who took that life to deal with their trauma, they are usually aggressive and not at all emotionally stable. However, the shock of randomly encountering their sexual abuser as adults turns their righteous fury into this. They even manage to hold a normal conversation with Nokes when prodding him to [[ButForMeItWasTuesday remember them]], although their faces are pained.
113	* In ''Film/{{Snatch}}'', Brick Top is always very loud and aggressive. Until he gets truly pissed off. Then he gets very, very quiet.
114	* ''Film/SpeedRacer'': Pops Racer, as played by Creator/JohnGoodman, discovers a ninja trying to poison his sons in the middle of the night. A former college wrestling champion, Pops manhandles the ninja and throws him around the room, and eventually [[DestinationDefenestration out the window]], while never once raising his voice, even though he is clearly in full PapaWolf mode. The comedic tone of the movie prevents Pops from doing any worse to the ninja, but he still smashed the guy through several items of furniture and threw him off a building, complete with BondOneLiner.
115	--> '''Trixie:''' "Oh my god, was that a ninja?"\
116	'''Pops:''' "More like a ''non''-ja. Terrible what passes for a ninja these days."
117	* ''Franchise/StarTrek'':
118	** ''Film/StarTrekVITheUndiscoveredCountry'': Spock is barely maintaining composure when he sees [[spoiler:his protege Lt. Valeris]] is part of a plot to sabotage the peace talks between the Federation and the Klingon Empire, which he helped initiate, simply saying "What you want is irrelevant. What you've chosen is at hand!". [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness He finally shows some anger when he furiously smacks the phaser meant for him]] out of [[spoiler:her]] hands.
119	** For most of ''Film/StarTrekFirstContact'', [[TheCaptain Jean-Luc Picard]] appears to be the very same composed, rational man that we see throughout [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration the series]]. As the movie progresses, however, several out-of-character actions betray Picard's utter fury at the Borg, and show that he sees the situation as an opportunity to [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge take revenge]] on the Collective.
120	*** For that matter, Data (who's had an emotion chip implanted, making him no longer TheStoic) gets what is probably the character's SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome in the movie: a very calm, measured "Resistance is futile."
121	** ''Film/StarTrek2009'': Spock's response to the Vulcan Science Academy admissions board describing his human mother as a disadvantage, right up to [[ParentheticalSwearing his delivery]] of "Live long and prosper", suggests barely restrained anger, if not fury. Given how he later reacts when someone speaks condescendingly about his mother, the Academy incident seems likely to qualify.
122	* ''Franchise/StarWars'':
123	** What makes Darth Vader so terrifying is how he brutally channels his anger without compromising his stoic composure. In ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack'', he casually Force-chokes incompetent officers to death without so much as raising his voice or flying into a berserker rage.
124	** Just watch the scene at the end of ''Film/RogueOne'' where Vader kills his way through a corridor of Rebel troopers. It's ''easy'' for Vader. He just moves his lightsaber, throws some Force powers in there for good measure, but there's almost no energy expended on his part. Maul, or maybe even the Emperor, would have flown at the Rebels with spins and kicks and much lightsaber-twirling and snarling. From Vader there's not a sound, just systematic slaughter.
125	** [[BigGood Yoda]] confronting [[BigBad Palpatine]] in ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith'': "At an end, your rule is. And not short enough it was, I must say." It's an interesting contrast to Mace Windu, who is ''just'' barely keeping his temper in check when he shows up to arrest Palpatine, even though he's speaking in an official capacity. In the Franchise/StarWarsExpandedUniverse, it's made clear that this is a component of the [[FantasticFightingStyle lightsaber style]] [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique Vapaad]].
126	** Emperor Palpatine's VillainousBreakdown in ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'' is very low-key for someone that likes [[LargeHam to ham up the stage]] and it highlights just how monstrous he is. He simply drops his FauxAffablyEvil persona and coldly tortures Luke with [[AgonyBeam Force Lightning]], never raising his voice despite being full of anger. It's as if he's okay with losing the Battle of Endor as long as he can satisfy his sadism.
127	* Creator/DustinHoffman's [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass long-awaited]] rampage at the end of ''Film/{{Straw Dogs\|1971}}''. He's slightly nervous, and that's about it.
128	* ''Film/{{Taken}}'': "You don't remember me. [[PapaWolf We spoke on the phone two days ago]]. [[PreAssKickingOneLiner I told you I'd find you.]]"
129	* ''Film/{{Troy}}'': [[spoiler: Achilles enters this mode after learning that his cousin Patrocles was killed in battle. When Achilles refused to fight the Trojans, Patrocles disguised himself as his cousin to lead the Myrmidons into battle, only to be killed by Hector. As soon as he’s told of what happened, Achilles becomes deathly silent and heads off to Troy alone to kill Hector. When Hector agrees to duel him, trying to make a pact that the winner would honor the loser properly in death, Achilles won’t have any of it, calmly and clearly breaking down how he’ll kill Hector and force him to wander the underworld “blind, dead, and dumb”. He then proceeds to handily kill Hector off before dragging his body behind his chariot, all with a stern look on his face and little emoting.]]
130	* In ''Film/WhyDidIGetMarried'' when Angela reveals during dinner that Mike cheated on Sheila with the latter's best friend, Sheila is shocked and then gets angry. She sits at the dinner table angry for a few minutes. Then when Mike gets up to leave the table, she takes an empty wine bottle and smashes it on the back of Mike's head, stands up, and leaves the table (still angry).
131	* ''Film/XMenFilmSeries'':
132	** In ''Film/XMenFirstClass'', Erik's powers are manifested through anger, until Charles helps by telling him "true focus lies somewhere between rage and serenity."
133	*** Earlier, when he's chatting over a beer with a couple of Nazi refugees, his disposition can be best described as ''jovial'' fury. He's toasting them and [[SlasherSmile smiling]], and yet they start realizing something is terribly wrong even before he displays his death camp prisoner tattoo.
134	** It must've rubbed off from being with Magneto but throughout most of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', Mystique is searing with rage and on her way to becoming the remorseless killer she was in the original trilogy. [[spoiler:Until the end where she spares Trask's life and thus creates a new timeline.]]
135	** The best way to tell when Deadpool's ''not'' fucking around anymore is by this trope, best seen when he first meets Russell in ''Film/Deadpool2''. He starts off laughing at the kid's name and… well, being Deadpool. [[PapaWolf Until he's not.]] The minute he sees the signs of abuse on the boy's neck, it's equal parts epic and chilling how quickly he switches to stone-cold rage, seriously asking Russell who it was that hurt him, then caps it off by making his own version of [[Film/Deadpool2016 Colossus' speech]] before opening fire at the headmaster and his cronies.
136	* In ''Film/YogiBear'', Ranger Smith displays this masterfully after Yogi's stunt goes horribly wrong and wrecks the park. It's clear he's ''furious'' with Yogi, but he gives him a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech with a [[DissonantSerenity smile]] on his face and while barely raising his voice.
