Top Five: (Real) Action Heroines
4) Officer Anne Lewis (RoboCop Series)
My favourite type of female action heroine: The one that isn’t afraid to be a woman. Russo’s character is a bit too tense, Officer Lewis isn’t. She’s still effeminate. Not to mention about fifty times cuter. That type of confidence adds to a working heroine. All types of ass are kicked by Lewis, in fact she even saves old ‘Bucket Boy’s Iron Butt a few times.
She’s even better (hotter) in RoboCop 2, e.g. the raid on Cain’s drugs factory where Lewis was the only Cop to flank the pissants in that scene – and still with trademark bubblegum. There’s something sexy about a woman shooting a guy and good old fashioned blood squibs busting out of him. This is how you do it. Hey Sigourney, did you think you were the only bitch who could hijack an armored personnel carrier and tear shit up with it? Think again.
