Generally speaking, I think they all kind of sucked. I didn't see Aeon Flux or Domino, but I heard they sucked anyways.

Underworld Evolution, though, seemed to have sucked a bit less. It was atleast pretty looking, with some moody lighting and such.

Anyways, how come Hollywood can't make a good action movie with a female lead?

And what was your favourite action movie with a female lead to have come out semi-recently?

None of the above can compare with Charlie's Angels (modern version) or Angelina in Tomb Raider. Bad ass girls.

Kill Bill.

Damn it! How the hell did I forget Kill Bill?

It came out in the last year or so, too.

I never did get around to seeing the Tomb Raider sequel. How was it?

It was great. Rent it. I hope there's a 3rd.

I doubt there will be, since it all wrapped up real neatly. There were only two for the sake of it being really long, and to have the switch of a western movie in Japan and an eastern movie in the States.
