She was a triple agent; a CIA operative infiltrated in the MI6 British service posing as a Brit agent, working for the Brits, pretending to shift sides as a doble agent, passing allied 'information' to the Soviet KGB through the East Germany STASI secret service. Sick.
Can hardly express how much I love this movie, it's so stylish, it's in europe, it has Charlize Theron as the ultimate hardass, the soundtrack is ace, the fashion is so good, oof!👌
@I drink your milkshake Yesssss! Instead of the typical shaky camerawork they do in fightscenes, these are generally very steady and thus so much more convincing
My favorite spy movie. It’s plot is just as complex as mature spy thrillers but packed with good action and other, *entertainment* value scenes. It’s well shot and the dialogue is good enough.
And the fact that it's directed by a stuntman and one of the directors of John Wick (he was uncredited tho) makes it more better. He also knows how to choreograph a fight scene. Man this movie have a talented people behind the camera
Seriously you can't believe that is a realistic action sequence. In almost every action scene Atomic Blonde the stunt crew all take turns in attackacking her. It's way to stylistic.
@@sutlive22 I also heard she bought gifts for the stunt guys she threw down the stairs, in the hall way fight scene, because she threw them down the stairs so many times.
Love it! She's like a female version of Jason Bourne, John Wick, Jack Reacher and Robert McCall (Denzel's character in The Equalizer) all rolled into one. A bit cartoonish, but most action films are when it comes to how the fight sequences go!
Honestly, the action in the movie felt much more realistic. The stairway fight was so good, we saw both sides get tired from all the fighting and injuries they sustained.
Best Charlize Theron pic to date. I love this movie for the style, action and the music. I knew the lyrics to every song on the soundtrack. I have watched this flick over and over.
She's significantly better than Wick. Wick is just a really good killer, nothing more. She's a triple agent, and noticeably smarter in-universe than Wick is in his.
This great scene took after the last shootout in "The Unforgiven." In both scenes, a heavily outnumbered protagonist takes careful, aimed shots as the antagonists spray rounds indiscriminately. In Atomic Blonde, when one bad guy remains, she breaks cover from the couch, takes good aim, and gets a good hit as his rounds zip past her.
At the 0:29 mark, death squad says, “Be a professional and stand on the plastic.” Afterwards that room looks like they failed to bring enough black plastic to catch all the carnage.
If you like strong believable women action movies I highly recommend HAYWIRE (2011) starring former WMMA fighter (7-1) beautiful GINA CARANO. None of the HOLLYWOOD BS super-heroe crap in either ATOMIC BLONDE or HAYWIRE.
I have watched the fight clips of the movie and they are all riveting but this is my favourite...Possibly the colour and luxury of the set...the seductive concealed success of a hidden gun against all final odds...the plans made for her demise by sterile killers in rubber gloves...." stand on the plastic"...the blood on the wall mural...the soundtrack that combines the shouting of the tv with violent climax and then a music finale. This all makes it.
As actors go, how does it get better than Charlize Theron? It doesn’t and the same can be said of her as a person. She has done some wonderful thing for the people of South Africa! An incredible woman!
It never fails. The bad guys always give a highly proficient adversary ample warning they're going to kill him/her. The competent, prepared adversary responds by killing all the bad guys. Just send one bad guy, without making a speech first, to just kill him/her while they're in the grocery store or leaving for work. End of story.
It's a pride thing. Bad Guys want Proficient Adversary to know who is killing them and why, eg. "I want my face to be the last you see before you die". Sort of like what Proficient Adversary did at the end of this clip before she killed the last Bad Guy.
Dr. Evil: Begin the unnecessarily slow-moving dipping mechanism. Dr. Evil: Close the tank! Scott Evil: Wait, aren't you even going to watch them? They could get away! Dr. Evil: No no no, I'm going to leave them alone and not actually witness them dying, I'm just gonna assume it all went to plan. What? Scott Evil: I have a gun, in my room, you give me five seconds, I'll get it, I'll come back down here, BOOM, I'll blow their brains out! Dr. Evil: Scott, you just don't get it, do ya? You don't.
I don't know elsewhere, but in Toronto, Hamilton and I think Montreal, a good number of mob associates including bosses have been shot by a single shooter, in their own driveways or front steps when they come out for the first time that day. No mansions with double driveways and iron gates, just simple homes in the suburbs or a bungalow in older parts of town. It's been like that since I can recall in the sixties. Those are the killings to settle scores within the organization. Pretty sure none of them got a heads up call out of professional courtesy.
The most profound statement in this scene is when she says, "I want my life back". Think of a time or situation when YOU felt the same way. The floor is open...............................NOW!.
Wow, they actually had Vladimir Vysotsky singing in the background in a Hollywood movie. I don't know if it makes me happy/proud or sad that a song of this legend was used for something so mundane like this action movie.
This is a Great action Movie súper underrated and I just saw it in 2021. It's one of those movies that doesn't bore You. Charlize Theron is a Savage on this one.
Actually, her accent changed from British to American accent when meet her handler (while threatening her to be brought back in Langley Virgina which is where the CIA HQ located in real life if I'm right) in the Berlin Wall.
I certainly go see it, unfortunately there's now a militant misogynist moviegoing base who demands "strong women" be offset by stronger men or they get all pissy - the boycott and review-bomb anything that messes with their fragile worldviews.
"Wow"...How can someone so Beautiful..be so deadly...?...Simple...just look knock down, drag out, gorgeous.. while you knock down and drag out the trash! 😍 Love it!
Went to a wedding a couple of years ago and the brides mother was Charlie Theron’s cousin. What a stunner. She was, elegant as well. Putting it politely the mother was hotter than the bride. The wedding incidentally was a big success.
The choreography from this scene gives me a new found admiration for john wick movies, I mean this is good but it's not the same. At 1:16 she's aiming nowhere near the guy's head, there's no shells ejecting from her gun and there's no recoil going down her arm. When she fires at 1:27 it feels like it takes a full second for the bullet to hit. 1:35 the guy gets hit before she fires the gun and the gun doesn't cycle.
Liked the scene. But it follows a predictable pattern. An overt assassination attempt against a professional assassin. Give her plenty of time to react, and surprise, surprise, she turns the tables. Like a thousand times before. Real life: One guy walks behind her on a busy street, unseen, and bullet to the head. But wouldn't make a very satisfying scene.
Kind of like Commando. Every bullet Arnold shot killed someone. Every bullet shot at Arnold missed. You just have to laugh and move on. Can't expect much in terms of intelligence in Hollywood movies these days.
As usual, great scene, and I recognize the pistol she is using. It appears to be a standard Makarov with a suppressor. Mak's have 8 round mags, with one in the chamber for a max capacity of 9. She must be using the PMM variant with the 12 round mag. With one in the chamber, that's 13 rounds. I counted her shots here. She should have been empty for the last shot taking out the main guy. And she didn't reload or pick up a different pistol. But it's still a great scene.
I wish someone would make a cut of this scene that would play out in real time. It would be cool to see how quickly it actually went down and how fast Charlize Theron had to move to make the slowmo work right.
It's a good thing that this movie is getting a sequel eventually. Charlize Theron as a spy gives us an exciting feeling for the next awesome adventure of shootouts, car chases, hand-to-hand combat, old school jams, and some hot consensual "James Bond" pillow talk moment. 👍👍👍👍👍👍😄😄😄😄😄
Too bad they didn’t use the opportunity to get Ana de Armas. She would have done a fantastic job in a theoretical Atomic Blonde 2. After her performance as Palemo in the last Bond film - now she’s the sole lead to the John Wick spinoff Ballarina. So, too late.
I'm calling bullshit on that! I can buy the idea of Lorraine being a double agent, but her being CIA agent posing as MI6 agent posing as KGB agent is way too much even for a spy movie. I mean, why did CIA ever needed to do this stunt?

She also fixed his previously broken nose with that face shot.

"be a professional..." *proceed to be unprofessional*
KGB in a nutshell :-(
The professional anticipated the problem and prepared.
And she complied!
@@mariusmioc3045 Truly malicious compliance if ever there was!
@@jadefalcon001 Of course she complied by being professional!
I need a sequels to this like John Wick!
Hell yeah we do!
Yeah that would be good, but she wanted out so kinda can't happen unless you basically copied John Wick then it would suck though.
That's John Wick's sis
Netflix is working on it thank God.
But, still John wick series stands at a completely different upper level in Action..!
Talk about Jane Wick.
Frederik the Wolfman Fingers crossed for a crossover
Tbh, it's the same lad who made it if I am right. Also, they're planning for a crossover with John Wick movie.
Funny cause the worked together in Devil's advocate.
Same producers
She's significantly better than Wick. Wick is just a really good killer, nothing more. She's a triple agent, and noticeably smarter in-universe than Wick is in his.
Blonde Charlize is a queen
Brunette Charlize is a goddess
Completely agree. So much sexier as a brunette. Almost always are.
@Delon Duvenage She can act though
You should see her in The Old Guard 🙌🏾❤️

In Atomic Blonde, when one bad guy remains, she breaks cover from the couch, takes good aim, and gets a good hit as his rounds zip past her.
So can we have a movie where her, Wick, Bond, and Bourne all meet up and fight like the Mission Impossible team or the Kingsman?
^ This is a Crossover I would totally dig. This would be, like, the Secret Agent-equivalent of the Avengers.
On yo feet maggot Only in Internet
Fan Fiction.
Throw in Robert McCall too.
On yo feet maggot plus the equalizer and Evelyn Salt
I'd bet on whichever team's got Wick.
I totally loved this movie and the soundtrack music. Absolutely awesome music .she totally was amazing.
This is Vladimir Visotsky.
When I first watched this movie my mind was asking “When is this scene gonna happen?!” Cause it was the first scene in the trailer
Ben1234 M yeppp...i thought this is how it all started cuz its usually like that. I actually like the fact that they decieved us lolz
@@Minako9888 Perfect hype and gave a satisfying end after journeying throughout the entire story.
Love this movie! I was in West Germany around that time and it brings back memories of a great time to be alive. A different world then.
Must have been quite interesting to live there after the War.
that movie was so awesome, they have to make a sequel!!
Charlize Theron said that a sequel is in development.
@@Der2795 YAS
No. One is enough
Here is the kicker. I think she is played by Helen Mirren in Red, so there are so many stories that could be told between this movie and that.
Lesley Awino Wait....her character was in Red?

She was suddenly far more professional than they could deal with.
@@dondee5439 They're both believable and both have beautiful female leads.
My favorite film in a long, long time. Thank you for this. Eagerly awaiting 2.
Bummer we never got a sequel.
You never worked for me... I worked for you... love it
Did you... check your comment? XD
1:51 That is one hell of a shot 😍 Intensely satisfying art.
Love this movie, this scene! And ‘under pressure’ playing…. it couldn’t end better
...This is the movie Bond needs to be when he returns after the Craig era! A rollercoaster ride of jaw dropping action and set pieces!

Best thing is. When you watch Atomic Blonde you get nearly a 100 % Charlize. As i know only one stunt it´s a double only one. That´s impressive !
1:30 did anyone notice her switching guns???
Such a great actress
I count at least 13 shots for a gun that barely holds 7.
The song by Vladimir Visotsky was the best part here
If I'm ever in a shoot out I'll make sure to hide behind a couch lol
Her wig looked so good.
I like how the shoot out scene was in one take
She's so pretty with the black hair

What could have made that scene slightly better was for her to toss the alcohol on his wound and listen to him cry like a baby from the sting.
“I want my Life Back.”
