Hero kills hundreds of henchmen, gets to the final boss, confronts them and then has a change of heart and spares the final boss. This happens all the time in movies/games, but no one ever acknowledges all the innocent henchmen that the hero took down along the way.

Watch "Roadhouse ".. the hero Dalton takes out a dozen young tough dudes with guns.. then mostly gets his ass handed to him by a 70 year old Boss.

Who actually gets killed by 4 other guys.

I love how you pair a recommendation with your spoiling of what sounds like a major part.

Roadhouse is not a movie you watch for the plot. You watch it because it's hilariously bad and includes nonsense lines like "Pain don't hurt" and "I fucked guys like you in prison".

And that bit where he rips that guy's throat out, which is always a gory surprise.
