Female assassins/hitmen in lead role.

I'm looking for European/Asian/International action films where the lead character is a female assassin/hitman. I know of:

Nikita
The Assassin (Point Of No Return)

Any more titles are appreciated.
Thanks - Jasons_Mask

Well, you’ve got the bride and all the other femme fatales in Kill Bill. There’s a pair of ‘em in Chiklo gouyeung (Naked Killer). There’s the craptapular Lucy Liu vehicle Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever sitting alongside another piece of crap flick about another female assassin called Elektra. Azumi is a fun ride, mixing live action with manga and adding in a hot female assassin.

Here’s a site that has a breakdown of Asian cinema’s leading female assassins. Have fun.

Natalie Portman is a 12 year old wannabe assassin in The Professional, if that even counts.

I thought about her, but since she doesn't actually kill anybody...

HERE'S the IMDB's list of films involving female assassins.

I love "Heroic Trio" ... Michelle Yeoh, Maggie Cheung, and Anita Bui. Can't beat that ... and all in the same movie.

There's Mira Sorvino in "The Replacement Killers".

And going waaaaay back, Faye Dunaway as Bonnie in "Bonnie and Clyde"

Good idea, except Bonnie was a killer, not a paid assassin.

Except that she's not an assassin either. She makes phony I.D.s and gets sucked into the plot with the assassin played by Chow Yun-Chubby, but she's no professional killer.

Ok, Slayton, Holden, you have a point there.

With that in mind, the only one that truely comes to mind, as an assassin is La Femme Nikita ... and DON'T even mention "Point of No Return" in the same breath. It would be an insult.

Thanks for the replies.

I'd say my favorite is O'ren Ishii in Kill Bill vol. 1
