Name a genre film where you actively root for the hero

Remember all those James Bond and Die Hard flicks, where the villain is so much more dynamic and charismatic than the hero that you're actually sad to see them defeated? (RIP, Mr. Goldfinger...)

Name one where your sympathies lie purely with the protagonist.

My pick: Christopher Nolan's Batman films. The man in black is so haunted and noble I was behind him every step of the way. Especially when pitted against that psychotic Joker. Fight the good fight, Bats!
