Massive spoilers for the movie, obviously, but technically Predestination:

The film ends with the main character having fully descended into madness and clearly intent on taking whatever steps he has to to see the love of his life again, even if it means killing tens of thousands of people to do so.

Define "evil". It's a really broad category.

12 Monkeys (1995)

Paradox (2016)

Both of these movies deal with time travel, I know that is a turn off for some people.

I don't want to spoil anything but if you're even in this thread you need to watch, The Girl With All The Gifts. It's fuckin brilliant!

The book is great as well, there is also a prequel book "The Boy On The Bridge"

Nearly every western war and spy movie set after WW2

Dick Dastardly gets Muttley back in the new Scooby Doo movie. So he does get what he was after.
