Man I just think she sucks playing these "hardass" roles. Sam Jackson is GREAT but she stinks it all up. Is there any mo

She was AWESOME in here, truly badass. She was really cool in Thelma & Louise too. But if you didn't like her in those movies, watch that show where she was president or the Stuart Little movies.

If you want to watch her cute and lovable, watch
Bettlejuice
! There she was absolutely adorable, possibly even outshining Winona Ryder!
In my opinion, even at 55, Geena is still HOT! Like Heather Locklear, she ages fantastically beautifully!

Anyway, Davis is married to a plastic surgeon young enough to be her son.
More power to her!!!!

I disagree. I usuall hate movies where they try to pass off a woman as badass and it fails miserably (Resident Evil movies, Tomb Raider movies, Dawn of the Dead remake, etc). But this movie is one of the rare occasions where it works. Geena Davis pulls off all the action and tough gal lines really convincingly IMO. Okay, it comes off as a little awkward towards the beginning when she's Samantha, but I think that was intentional.

To the list of those movies I would have to add Colombiana and Salt, they both have "badass" female leads that are very unconvincing, Geena kicks ass here
Only movies that are worth watching:

Agreed 100% GD is a fantastic actress, but what makes this movie work is the humor in itin the same way that one could laugh at Thelma.if that makes any sense.for example the look she gives SLJ after he says, "Yessum Miss DaisyI be honkin!!" The look alone makes me laugh.Love her

Yeah I love that part. Davis and Jackson have an awesome chemistry in this film. I especially like the part where one of the hitmen has Charly in a alleyway with a gun to her head, then when Mitch tries to save her, the two start bickering like the hitman isn't even there:
Charly: Are you always this stupid or did you take lessons?
Mitch: I TOOK LESSONS!
Hitman: HEY!
Charly & Mitch: WHAT?!
Me: XD -

Davis not only play one awesome badass in this film, but she also pulls off the transformation with total class, starting off as a lovable character and finishing as a lovable character.
This. Like 120% this.
and what somebody said about Res Evil, I think Mila's a badass as well -

Personally, I think Geena Davis pulls off the MILF turned bad ass better than Angelina Jolie ever did.
It helps that nearly all her "heroics" are gun play and using her head. It typically goes to crap when they have the 120 pound leading lady kicking the crap out of a bunch of 220 pound men. They largely avoid that in this movie.
Best line easily-
After they fall from the building and Geena shoots out the ice, they emerge from the water and she has lost her memory again.
Geena- What just happened?
Mitch- I just saved your ass. It was beautiful!
