Girls Who Kick Ass! Fiona Glenanne

Image
Fiona Glenanne is a fictional character in the television series Burn Notice , portrayed by Gabrielle Anwar .  According to Fiona's biography from USA Network: “She was affiliated with the IRA for 14 years but ran afoul of her old organization because she did not like being told what to do. She has since gone out on her own, picking up odd jobs and using her skills in explosives, picking locks, tracking, weapons, and hand-to-hand combat to make a living.” She currently is working with Michael Westen, Sam Axe and since season 4, Jesse Porter, doing odd jobs, as well as being an unlicensed bounty hunter.

If ‘The Expendables’ Were Women by Paul Young July 8, 2010 | by Paul Young Originally Posted at: http://screenrant.com/female-expendables-movie-pauly-67099/ Sure, the guys in ‘The Expendables’ are all true butt-kickers… But what would an all-female team look like? Turns out, pretty awesome. In just a few weeks, the testosterone fest known as The Expendables hits theaters in a screen-rattling, action-packed, explosive extravaganza. I desperately want this movie to be as good as the trailers and clips have hinted at so far because if it isn’t, then it means that all the male action stars that I admired and enjoyed watching as a young kid and teenager have truly gone the way of the dodo. If that turns out to be the case, then action movie fans will have to muddle through brief glimpses of theatrical enjoyment from the likes of Gerard ...
