6) Atomic Blonde (2017)

Charlize Theron performed a career-defining role as Lorraine Broughton, an MI6 Cold War-era agent navigating the perilous world of espionage in Berlin. It's known for its brutal fight scenes, most famously the unforgettable stairwell sequence. The film really set a new standard for realistic combat choreography. Theron trained for months and did most of her stunts. "Atomic Blonde" is not only an action movie; it's a stylish neo-noir thriller with a killer '80s soundtrack and unexpected twists. Lorraine's cool, calculated demeanor and unapologetic toughness redefined the female spies-proving they could be just as deadly and complex as their male counterparts.
