Pay close attention to the mannerisms and body language of Jim Caviezel.
Women go fucking nuts for this guy and it has very little to do with his looks.
He just has "it" and by "it" I mean - the mannerisms, body language, aura, presence, of an Alpha Male.
Even better, watch his Facial Expressions in the movie Escape Plan (the one with Arnold and Stallone)
This is the EPITOME of Dark Triad, Sociopathic, Psychopathic, Cocky, Arrogant Prick - AKA "Get Laid Machine"
Basically: "Respect the Cock" Face

Initial D, the live action movie. Spoiler alert ahead.
For those who are out of the loop, or just not into cars, Initial D is based on an old-school anime from the 90's about street racing and the drift/car culture of Japan. It is also a very popular and difficult arcade game. It also made the Toyota AE86 a legend in the car community.
The plot revolves around a young kid who delivers tofu to customers' houses from his dad's tofu shop in the early morning hours.
His father was once a driving legend decades ago in the Toyota the boy now drives, but the man's wife left him and the pressures of life ended his driving career.
He has no interest in racing or becoming a drift champion, however his father sets him strict timelines for his blocks of tofu to be delivered to customers houses in tact and in one piece. In addition, every morning before the kid leaves the store, his dad puts a small cup of water in the car's cupholder and warns him if he spills a single drop during the drive that he will smack the shit out of him when he returns. He is secretly training his son to be the most formidable driver in the mountains of Japan.
Of course there is a girl, and the boy is madly in love with her. She ticks all the boxes, feminine, innocent, sweet and submissive. Even his cynical chain-smoking father approves of her.
However there is a mysterious unknown stranger she has to break away and talk to peridically through the movie.
Long story short, he gets called out by the current drift kings who recognize his legendary car for back in his father's day. Under the instruction of his dad he kicks the shit out of everybody, including the main rival, who drove a way faster car.
As for the girl, it turns out that the mysterious stranger she would break off to talk to was her sugar daddy.
This is the part where we cringe and expect him to get all beta and accept her past for what it is, right? Wrong. He tells her to fuck off, and drives his AE86 into the Japanese sunset.
I liked this movie because it had a strong element of the bond between father and son. About being humble but ready to fuck shit up if need be. And finally, being able to tell a girl to fuck off, no matter how good she seems on paper. For these reasons I would recommend watching this movie. Bonus if you're a car guy as well.

I'd have to go for the first Godfather movie. The title doesn't just refer to Marlon Brando's character Don Corleone, but also to Al Pacino's, who plays his son Michael. Michael starts out as a typical nice guy, experiences his father's real business and gets taken under his wing, and rises to become New York's most powerful gangster in the end.
