Female led Movies Everyone Should See

Kill Bill

This movie is in all respect iconic. The action scenes are absolutely engaging and Uma Thurman as the Bride is probably the best action hero of all time.

Little Women

I mean, any movie by Great Gerwig deserves to be on this list.

Hidden Figures

Not only is it a story of female empowerment and breaking sexist boundaries, it also deals with racist stereotypes in the wake of the Civil Rights Movement.

Wonder Woman

Honestly. Wonder Woman is one of the most powerful superhero in the Superhero world.

Birds of Prey

This is the female sisterhood movie we deserve.

Lady Bird

Greta Gerwig + Saoirse Ronan + Timothee Chalamet are the most powerful trio.

Thelma and Louise

Can you even make a list of Women centric movies without Thelma and Louise?

Alien

Ellen Ripley will forever be the baddest of them all.

Mad Max: Fury Road

Charlize Theron as Furiosa is what a feminist dream is.

Erin Brockovich

No wonder Julia Roberts won an Oscar for this role. Absolutely amazing.

Terminator 2: Judgement Day

Imagine being as badass as Sarah Connor.

Zero Dark Thirty

Nobody makes spy work look as cool as Jessica Chastain.

Moana

A Disney princess whose entire storyline doesn’t revolve around her getting a guy but about her discovering her heritage and who she is? Count me in.

A League of Their Own

We certainly lack women led sports movies and this one is an example of just how powerful they could be.

Mona Lisa Smile

Julia Roberts, Julia Stiles, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Kirsten Dunst, Gennifer Goodwin, do I need to go on?

Legally Blonde

Elle Woods getting into Harvard Law and that court scene was a cultural reset.

Bend it like Beckham

An Indian girl defying stereotype and playing football against her family’s wishes. If this doesn’t sound like the most epic feminist tale then what does?
