My favorite genre of movies is Rom-Com but then female action movies come a close second. Female-centric action movies are no less than that of their counterparts. Actually, they add an extra oomph factor to an otherwise basic action moves. Today, I am going to share my favorite top 5 female action movies that I can watch anytime. Charlie’s Angels Charlie’s Angels is an action-comedy movie and a favorite of mine for years. This movie has not just one or two but three beautiful lead actresses, Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore & Alex Munday, known as the “Angels”. These Angels have a boss namely Charlie who stays undercover and only can be heard over a speaker phone. These angels are private investigators and must protect their identities. They are assigned with heroic assignments but they have their private lives too. The movie has several action-packed and comedy infused scenes. Salt Angelina Jolie wins all the hearts with her performance as Evelyn Salt in this movie. This is a full throttle action movie with a badass actress. She is playing the role of a CIA agent who is first trapped in prison at North Korea and later acquitted with the charges of the assassination of the Russian president. How does Evelyn free herself from a deep-rooted conspiracy, forms the central conflict of the movie? If you have not watched it yet, you are missing one of her finest action movies. The Kill Bill Series In every list of female-based action movies, you will find the Kill Bill series for sure. In this movie, Uma Thurman plays a retired assassin who takes revenge from a man who tried to kill her when she was pregnant a few years ago. The man is not alone and has a team of assassins. The film shows how this woman who was in coma for 4 years, empowers herself to fulfill her goal proving that a woman is strong enough to take down her enemies on her own. The Underworld Series This is One of the highest rated and my most watched movie series. Underworld is a film series that walks you through the dark world of Vampires, Lycans and Hybrids. This movie features four movies and every movie is worth watching. The reason – Kate Beckinsale. She makes you live in that era. She thrills every nerve in your body. I, personally, am a sucker for horror fiction, and what could be more thrilling than Vampires & Lycans. Lucy Scarlett Johansson is my favorite Hollywood actress and this is not the only reason why I love Lucy. The hyper-stylish sci-fi plot by Luc Besson is another reason. The movies follow an innocent girl who falls prey to the drug mafia who try to use her to transport drugs. But in the process, she accidentally absorbs a drug that makes her gain psychokinetic abilities. As a result, her mind usage suddenly starts increasing and her capabilities keep on growing. The film is a visual treat and the story gets interesting with every passing second. Trust me, with this movie, you will want to keep re-watching the climax. So, basically, never underestimate the power of a woman, be it real life or reel life and these movies prove the same. These are only 5 movies, but there are numerous heroic performances delivered with perfection, by women proving that action movies are not only for male actors. So, tell me which is your favorite female-driven action movie in the comments! I am curious to know your choices. DISCLAIMER: All the images have been taken from Google. Much Love, Nisha
