Of course Im older now, and age affects your choice greatly. My pick is Liam Neesons character Bryan Mills from Taken.
"I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you."
Sold! Taken is the best action movie Ive seen in the past 15-20 years before it, and I havent seen one better since. It hit you on a basic level of protecting your child from the darkest of fates, a hopeless terrifying situation, and showed a dangerous yet simple mans relentless search. He was not going to come back alive unless he had her.
