So good at being so bad:

Godfather gangster Michael Corleone has been voted the king of movie criminals.

Ruthless Corleone, played by Al Pacino in the Godfather trilogy, came top of a Sky Movies survey.

Alan Rickman is the only British name on the list - he came fourth for his role as evil Hans Gruber in the Bruce Willis action movie Die Hard.

Goodfellas' character Tommy DeVito, played by Joe Pesci in the 1990 Martin Scorsese movie, came second. Robert De Niro's Max Cady, the character he played in the thriller Cape Fear, came third, followed by Rickman's Hans Gruber. Jack Nicholson's Joker in Tim Burton's Batman took fifth place, and Eddie Bartlett, played by James Cagney in the 1939 movie Roaring Twenties, came sixth.
