8 Favorite Film Assassins

3. Beatrix 'Black Mamba’ Kiddo in “Kill Bill”

Uma Thurman’s Beatrix Kiddo may just be the coolest assassin ever. Although her memorable yellow-and-black jumpsuit was lifted from Bruce Lee’s “Game of Death,” as most of “Kill Bill” was inspired by classic kung-fu films, it distinguishes her from every killer before her. The revenge-hungry Kiddo stops at nothing to eliminate her old assassin team and boss/ex-lover. Any woman that can kill ruthlessly with a samurai sword while still looking stylish and murder a man in five finger moves is awesome in our book.
