Now there's a plot twist* I love. Halfway through the movie they discover that the bodygaurd is actually from Krypton, but she lost her memory after a near death fight from another Kryptonian. Oh yeah.

*The other day my friend got tongue tied and when she meant to say "plot twist" she said "twat plist." I laughed for hours.

Oh, please!

Kryptonians don't lose their memory from tangling with other Kryptonians. They lose their memory from tangling with asteroids.

I don't see how the believability extends to any actress if not to her.

Two actresses that I have found more believable as physically tough women than Mila:
Gina Torres
Katee Sackhoff

We're forgetting about the snakes.

I suggest the snakes are an endangered species and the bodyguard (who had been an environmentalist in between her modeling and bodyguard careers) has to choose between the lives of the snakes or the life of her boss/lover.

I think the environmentalist/model/bodyguard also needs to a computer hacker.

Because they've played tough characters? Or they just seem tougher?

I don't agree or disagree, I'm just wondering how you decided that the girl from The Fifth Element and Resident Evil wasn't tough enough and that Zoe was. Is she too pretty to be tough? That I could agree with.

Because they played tough characters that I beleived.

Mila's character in The Fith Element was believable, as long as you accepted the facts that she had superpowers. Hence my comment earlier "Unbelievable unless she has superpowers.".

I believed Mila's tough character in Resident Evil about as much as I believed that Catherine Bell was a tough combat marine -- not at all.

How about Grace Jones as bodyguard, Diane Keaton as the CEO, and Tom Hanks as the husband and this guy for the snake?

Well, if we're going to have snakes, then maybe this guy should be the bodyguard. That way nobody will get hurt, including the snakes.

The snake guy should be the pilot of the plane. Who's having an affair with the wife. And the plane explodes halfway through and they all have to land safely using the snakes as parachutes.

In that case, the snakes will need to be cobras.

Those are two versions of Cobra Commander, a bad guy in the GI-Joe cartoons from my childhood.
