Actors get a lot of shit for looking pretty, which is why, we presume, they're more than happy to get in front of the camera and prove they're not pampered pansies. Everyone from Channing Tatum to Robert Downey Jr. have dropped the gloves and gotten gully for the sake of switching up their untarnished name to "Hollywood's Biggest Bad-ass."

We're not going to lie. It's pretty damn fun to watch when they do. Sure, it sounds a bit sadistic, but who doesn't get an adrenaline rush out of watching film's finest drop-kick each other? Remember, it's all for the sake of your entertainment anyway. Now, enjoy our GIF Guide to Beautiful Men...Getting Beaten Up in Movies.
