10 Least Convincing Movie Badasses

9. Zoe Saldana - Aisha (The Losers)

Zoe Saldana plays the handler of a group of elite soldiers in The Losers, who occasionally joins them in the action. While it'€™s always fun to see a movie with a kick-ass woman holding her own against the guys, in The Losers she'€™s so distractingly waifish it'€™s barely convincing that she could lift a heavy thin of paint, let alone take down someone twice her size in unarmed combat.

She has a fight scene with Jeffrey Dean Morgan that's supposed to be playful and flirty, but instead it comes off as disturbing to see a massive guy whaling on a woman less than half his build. She doesn'€™t do any better in the gunfights, where her arms are so skinny it looks like she could barely hold a gun in place for more than a few seconds, let alone fire it.

Saldana went on to prove she could be convincingly badass in Guardians Of The Galaxy, so she clearly learned a few lessons from her work here.
