Gunpowder Milkshake is a 2021 neo-noir action dramedy. It was directed by Navot Papushado and written by Papushado and Ehud Lavski. It stars Karen Gillan, Lena Headey, Carla Gugino, Chloe Coleman, Michelle Yeoh, Angela Bassett, Freya Allan and Paul Giamatti. It was released on Netflix on June 14, 2021.Fifteen years ago, hitwoman Scarlet (Lena Headey) killed the wrong person and had to abandon her daughter, Samantha (Karen Gillan), to be raised by Nathan (Paul Giamatti), a representative of "The Firm," the organization that Scarlet worked for.In the present day, Sam has grown up to be a hitwoman of her own and one night she accepts a job to kill a man who stole millions from the Firm. However, it turns out that he stole the money in order to pay the ransom for his kidnapped daughter Emily (Chloe Coleman) and Sam decides, after shooting him, that she needs to save his daughter herself.Things take a turn, however, when Nathan calls and tells her that Sam killed a very important person's son during an earlier hit and he has to take away her protection. Now, on the run from an army of goons, with Emily in tow, Sam turns to the one person she can trust: her mom. They, in turn, go to a sisterhood of "librarians" that Scarlet had once belonged for protection: Madeleine (Carla Gugino), Florence (Michelle Yeoh), and Anna May (Angela Bassett).Between these women, a lot of people are going to get killed. | |

The Siege | |
| Gunpowder Milkshake / int_1c4adce1 | comment |
The Siege: McAlester's men attack the Library in full force in the climax of the movie. Justified since Sam and Scarlet are a Badass Family that killed the first wave and they're swarming them with numbers of opponents. It does the mob little good against not just the duo, but the Librarians as well. | |

Strange Minds Think Alike: When Emily notices Sam was shot in the shoulder, she says that it could get infected, worms could get in, and she could lose her arm. After they get to the doctor's office and Dr. Ricky is trying to think of an excuse to inject her with a sedative, he takes a look at her shoulder and says it could get infected and she could lose the arm. | |

Combat Breakdown: Sam's two fights against the "Boneheads". While in the first everyone is fit and healthy, they begin the second with everyone disabled to some extent. Sam's arms are paralysed, forcing her to fight by spinning wildly and hoping to hit something. Of her three opponents, one is in a wheelchair, the second on crutches, and the third has an arm in a sling. | |

No Honor Among Thieves: The kidnapper with the Frankenstein mask murders his comrades to keep all the ransom for himself, accidentally destroying it and getting himself killed in the process. It probably would have worked better if he had waited until they reached their hideout instead of killing the getaway driver while he was driving. | |

Faux Affably Evil: McAlester is a ruthless mobster but he is initially portrayed sympathetically as a grieving father who wants revenge on his son's killer, similar to how Scarlet wanted revenge for her husband's death. However, his affable façade goes away when he tells Sam that he will slowly torture her to death and have Emily watch all of it. | |

Feminist Fantasy: The heroes are all powerful women who are regularly shown to be much more dangerous than most of the male opponents they face, and do not show any need for male help in any way. Their enemies include a group of men who try to control everything and another crime lord who idolises his son and complains that he can't understand his daughters. All the henchmen sent at them are bloodthirsty males. | |

Contract on the Hitman | |
| Gunpowder Milkshake / int_be85ff22 | comment |
Contract on the Hitwoman: Scarlet had to leave her daughter because she killed the leader of the Russians, despite them being a member of the Firm, so she was a target. Something similar happens to Sam when she kills Jim McAlester's son and the Firm takes away her protection, resulting in a massive number of killers coming after her. | |

Car Fu | |
| Gunpowder Milkshake / int_c2d978fe | comment |
Car Fu: Sam (with help from Emily) manage to kill all of their pursuers (bar one) and total their cars through a clever use of her car and the topology of the parking lot (her bulletproof windshield helped too). | |

Break His Heart to Save Him | |
| Gunpowder Milkshake / int_c4500946 | comment |
Break His Heart to Save Him: When Emily wants to stay by Sam's side as McAlester's goons close in, seeing herself as Sam's "apprentice", Sam must come clean then and there about being responsible for the death of Emily's father so Emily will not be close as the killing starts. | |

Action Girl: All the female characters in the movie are exceptionally competent fighters, able to hold their own against assailants in far superior numbers. Even 8 years old (and three quarters) Emily performs remarkably well under pressure and is able to drive a car with Sam's help. | |

Contrived Coincidence: Sam's quest to rescue Emily (which has her going against the Firm's orders) just so happens to take place just hours after she kills Jim McAlester's son. | |

Morality Pet: Emily becomes this for Sam, in particular when she prevents her from killing Dr. Rickey. Sam acknowledges this and tells him to remember he lived thanks to an eight year old (and three quarters) girl. | |

Truce Zone | |
| Gunpowder Milkshake / int_e5507f60 | comment |
Truce Zone: The diner and clinic try to be this, with a strictly enforced no-guns "check you guns at the door" policy. The first is violated when the Boneheads try to kill Sam, the second when the librarians raid it to rescue Sam (although since they are dressed as diner employees they may be technically exempted from the rule). Interestingly, the mafia goons have plenty of melee weapons, suggesting that only firearms are banned (though the head thug breaks even this rule) | |

Chain Pain: During the fight in the library, Florence uses a chain to kill several mooks. And then several more. Finally, she wraps the chain around one mooks neck and pulls the other end over the balcony. | |

Concealment Equals Cover: Justified in the library battle when Sam and Scarlet take cover behind the circulation desk. Each time it's shot, there's a metal clang, indicating that it's been armored. | |

Too Good for This Sinful Earth: Madeleine is the kindest member of the librarians, and arguably the main cast. She's fatally wounded while protecting Emily, and dies apologizing for failing everyone. | |

Pet the Dog | |
| Gunpowder Milkshake / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog: Dr. Ricky tells his nurse "I think you should go on your break now", letting her escape before the fighting begins. Nathan does seem to genuinely care for Sam and does his best to keep her out of trouble until the Firm decides she has become a liability. Even after that he sends her to her mother before bailing out on her. | |

Fauxshadow | |
| Gunpowder Milkshake / int_ffb55ae3 | comment |
Fauxshadow: During a tense first meeting with the initially not entirely friendly librarians Sam makes it clear that she considers killing women fair game (in contrast to the old fashioned "no women, no children" line from The Professional.) The implication is that Sam might come into conflict with one or more of these other deadly women during the film. Not only does that not happen, there are no female antagonists at all in the movie. | |
