Action movies: 3 famous lines to say do not move

To ask someone gently not to move, say "Just hold still." To ask someone to stay in one place and not leave, say "You stay put." When you need someone to stop all movement right now, say "Don't move a muscle." The tone matters, so choose the line that fits the situation.

逐句讲解

Just hold still. 语气: Gentle and caring

Use it when you are helping someone, for example taking a photo, cutting hair, or cleaning a small cut. It sounds kind, so it isn't strong enough for a real emergency.

“Just hold still.”

出自Jumanji (1995)
You stay put. 语气: Casual and friendly

Use it when you want someone to stay in this place and not leave, often while you go somewhere. It is about not leaving, not about keeping your body perfectly still.

“You stay put.”

出自Roald & Beatrix: The Tail of the Curious Mouse (2020)
Don't move a muscle. 语气: Bold and serious

Use it when even a tiny movement could cause a problem, like a bee on someone's arm. It sounds dramatic, so it can feel too strong for small, everyday situations.

“Don't move a muscle.”

出自Tales of Babylon (2023)
Don't move. 语气: Direct and clear

This is the basic, neutral way to say it. It works in most situations, but the speaker's voice decides whether it sounds calm or urgent.
Keep still. 语气: Neutral and practical

Use it when someone keeps moving a little and you need them to stop for a moment. It's common with children and at the doctor's office.
Stay where you are. 语气: Calm but firm

Use it when someone should not come closer or walk away, for example if there is broken glass on the floor. It's clear and polite enough for strangers.

常见错误

不太合适 ~~Don't move your muscle.~~

更合适的说法 Don't move a muscle.

The phrase is fixed. "A muscle" means even one small muscle, so it means not even a tiny movement.
不太合适 ~~Stay put still.~~

更合适的说法 Stay put. / Hold still.

"Put" here already means in one place, so don't add "still." Use "stay put" for not leaving and "hold still" for not moving your body.
不太合适 ~~Hold on still, please.~~

更合适的说法 Hold still, please.

"Hold on" means "wait." "Hold still" means "don't move." They are different phrases.
