Space Age Side-Kicks Bender Futurama: Bender's Big Score
Though his feature length debut might be stretching it in the "actually in a film" stakes, Bender (or "Bender Bending Rodríguez", to give him his full name) is the biggest robotic bastard you could imagine.

Definitely not a follower of Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics.
