Charlize Theron has turned into my favorite action hero. She is so impressive as a badass agent who holds her own against the bad guys in this film.

Theron did her own stunts for it and it sure paid off. There is so much action in this film it keeps you on your seat. The story plot seems a bit complicated but you can still keep up—watching the film taking place during the Cold War and against the historic backdrop of the Berlin Wall coming down in 1989 added to the film’s mystery even though that had nothing to do with the storyline. The film even has a great 80s soundtrack that took me back.
Fun at the Atomic Blonde Los Angeles premiere
Summary: An undercover MI6 agent (Theron) is sent to Berlin during the Cold War to investigate the murder of a fellow agent and recover a missing list of double agents.
Even though I am not looking for an Atomic Blonde 2, I would like to see the Lorraine Broughton character again.
As a woman it was fun to watch a badass female hold her own. Yes! It gets a 3 thumps up from me.
Atomic Blonde is directed by David Leitch (John Wick) and also stars James McAvoy, John Goodman, Til Schweiger, Eddie Marsan, Sofia Boutella, and Toby Jones. Atomic Blonde in theaters July 28.
