Here’s a montage of ass-kicking women in action movies
Yes the following is just another supercut in a pop culture landscape full of supercuts, but it has the added bonus of highlighting some pretty great action scenes and showcasing an underrepresented demographic. “Action Women Movie Montage” celebrates the women who beat up baddies using everything from swords to guns to their bare hands. Created by frequent montage maker Clara Darko, the video includes clips from over 60 films and celebrates awesome fictional women from Princess Leia to Ellen Ripley to Yu Shu Lien to Black Widow to Thelma and Louise. And, hey, maybe after enjoying all that ass-kicking, we can also discuss Hollywood’s complicated relationship with “Strong Female Characters.”
