Michelle Yeoh: She can kick your butt!!!
Yeoh has kicked alongside the martial arts greats - Jet Li, Chow Yun-Fat and of course, Jackie Chan. They've all had to learn to share the stage with a strong woman who can give as good as they can.
She has a softer side, though, as seen in Crouching Tiger, Memoirs of a Geisha and the recent The Children of Huang Shi. But there's still no competition for her as one of the greatest female action stars ever.

Michelle Yeoh: Ever seen her fight?
Ziyi Zhang vs. Michelle Yeoh best fight scene ever
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon the second fight between these two. Very technical fight. This is the best realistic fight I've ever seen (last fight in Fist of Legend is kinda close). Yuen Woo ping is a genious. edit: in response to some of you, yes, this fight i think is realistic in terms of them not doing anything that impossible (except for the little flying pushback at one part) and them using real wushu style attacking/defense. if you say it isn't realistic cause it lasts too long, who's to say that two people can't be so skilled that a sword battle would last a long time before someone connects a hit?
