Since so much emphasis is put on youth by Hollywood I thought it would be nice to take a look at some of the 'older' actresses who have kicked ass. By the way, I mean old by Hollywood standards, because none of these women register as old to me. Add any female ass kicker as long as they were 40 or above when they played the role, and if you could try to include the age they were at when you add the option.
By the way, if you are going to add this pick is just focused on characters who physically kicked ass. Female characters who are mentally/emotionally strong are just as important but it seems to be the physically kickass roles that the more mature actresses are most passed over for, so that's just what this pick is for.
The choice is which actress you prefer, so you don't have to like the role I listed for them if you like the actress.
But I've really been feeling the Dogma love lately.
Although after reading your comment, I'm not sure she counts... Even if she did fight against angels and get shot by cosmic energy...
EDIT: Reconsidering... may delete...
EDIT EDIT: A thought-- How about Alanis Morissette as God? A woman cast in a predominantly patriarchal role? That's pretty kickass-- albeit, not physically, but more.... metaphysicially.
EDIT EDIT EDIT: Just realized it was about the actress. Will delete when I get home, as I don't think Linda will beat anyone out... I even prefer Sandra to her, though I love Bethany.
I dunno, though. Still, I like the character, but the actress isn't my favorite. I may leave her as an option, but change my vote.
