Assuming you're counting stories where the villain did very bad things for the purpose of a doing something good, there is an anime from 2005 called Speed Grapher.

The Sixth Day, one of Arnold Schwarzenegger's please-take-me-seriously projects, is possibly the wrongest it is possible to be about whether clones are people. Still a fun movie. Just ass-backwards in its motivation. I'm not sure how much of its moral grey area was intended by the script or the direction. The anti-clone "good guys" are pretty terrorist-coded. Arnie's just caught up in the middle of their guerrilla fight against a generic corporate bad guy. Who solved death. How terrible.
Off-topic Schwarzenegger faff: End Of Days is dumb. Jingle All The Way is the most 90s Christmas movie possible. Eraser is a slick action movie that somehow has no cultural cachet outside of every video game with a railgun.
