She delivers stints better. And thats all that matters.

Jennifer Garner was capable in Alias.

Just because someone has a few credits in an action movie doesn't make her best.

Uma was good in Kill Bill.

Like a heart attack.

So you meant to say stent?

With premise i'm not counting Sigourney Weaver in Alien


Milla Jovovich imho is an easy pick,wich is funny considering she ever got the thin fashion model look


Just for the amount of stuff she's been involved where she got... no need be Oscar material, action style ever been on that trashy side

Just to say some

Fifth element
Joan of Arc
Resident Evil movies
Ultraviolet
Three Musketeers
Hellboy
Monster Hunter


If i must take one single performance, Uma Thurman in KB
Rare case where action movie did'nt felt would have been just better with male main character

Honorable mention imho goes to underrated hottie Olga Kurylenko

she got some stuff, kinda lesser Milla style curriculum but without big solo movies:

James Bond QoS
Hitman
Centurion
Max Payne
And lot of b-movies/lesser movies, all while being hotter than the average Sherdog pick at fappers tournaments polls lol

^Came in to say this.

I do not think you could create any categorical analysis for this question that Michelle Yeo would not dominate.

And I think Angelina Jolie probably does get the second spot.

I love females and actresses. But most are cringe in action movies. The best to me are the ones that use their talents to their advantage and do not rely on strength which a woman would not have in most cases. Sigourney Weaver, Michelle Yeoh, Milla J and Linda Hamilton did the best with being tough but still a woman.

That is most common complaint typically leveled by men who see women being physical and tough while at the same time those men tend to love seeing Matt Damon, TOm Cruise and so many manlets relying on strength no manlet or man would have.

And it is no limited to manlets, as even full size men, who are big body builder types are almost always shown relying on strength no normal human would have.

I have said this prior but people cannot see how their own bias and lens makes them critical of OTHERS while not being able to see the pandering and what is being sold to them. To flatter them. To get them excited by the amazing things, 'normal males' are doing without questioning whether they actually could do it.
