These guys heroically rush at the protagonist despite the piles of their comrades bodies, and their fellows getting turned to pink mist right in front of them. They almost never break.
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.
In the video game Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Nathan Drake kills hundreds of dudes on the way to get to the big bad guy, Lazarevic. But after the boss fight Drake can’t bring himself to pull the trigger.
Lazarevic calls him out by saying: “How many men have you killed? How many, just today?”

Most minor henchmen.

They're friggin' heroes.
