Does this scene of Hal, Mercedes and Charles prove that they're villains (skip to 8:04): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5ZH5F5zKag&t=1719s

Translation:

Hal: Get up, Buck! Come on! Get up and pull! Get up, Buck! Quit being so lazy! (whips Buck)

Mercedes: Hal, I'm worried. He looks like he's dying!

John Thornton: Hold on a second! (jumps down a hill) How far are you people planning to go?

Hal: To Dawson.

John Thornton: Impossible!

Hal: What!?!

John Thornton: The ice is melting. It'll break. You gave me all the money in Alaska. I wouldn't make such a dangerous journey. Your dogs are practically dead.

Hal: I don't want to listen to a sermon! Now, we're going to Dawson. Mush! Lazy Buck! Mush! Come on, mush! (whips Buck as Buck fails to pull the sled) Get up and pull! I'm sick of your laziness! Get up and pull! Come on! (throws his whip as he rushes over to get a club)'

John Thornton: What?

Hal: I'll show you! You'll be sorry you didn't listen to me! (hits Buck with his club until Thornton stops him)

John Thornton: Hold it!

Hal: What are you doing?

John Thornton: That dog will die if you push him any harder.

Hal: (pulls out his knife) Leave my dog and it's none of your business!

Mercedes: Hal, stop it!

Charles: (gets in Hal's way) Hal, be reasonable!

Hal: (pushes Charles out of the way) Get away from me!

John Thornton: (hits Hal's hand, causing him to let go of the knife)

Hal: Ow! Why you! (tries to grab his knife until Thornton stops him)

John Thornton: No, you don't! (Hal's knife lands in his hand)

Hal: (cowers in fear) What are you doing? (Thornton cuts Buck free)

Mercedes: (laughs)

Charles: Mercedes!
