Who wants to see a girl Luke Skywalker. Sure, a 95 lb girl can beat a 225 lb man. Only in the movies, otherwise she would be knocked out with one punch.

Well, powers that be in Hollywood feel a need to push girl power and all that. So there you go.

To be fair, 95 lb guys also have the same low changes of actually beating a 225 lb man, yet Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, and Jet Li pull that off loads of times, so I’m pretty sure it’s technically possible for a 95 lb girl to do that if they practice that kind of martial art. That said, however, they’d need to either be superhuman (either a space alien humanoid like Kara Zor-El, a mythological creature like Ariel from The Little Mermaid, or anything like that), or they’d need to extensively train in the art (twice as much as a man, if not three times as much, just to come close to breaking even).

I thought she did a great job. And she looks more like 120 lbs. :)

This movie was not giving us a girl that could beat up boys with her bare hands. This movie was a testimony to the concept that the Gun is the great equalizer. Her strength was in guns and magic (the force), not physical strength.

Otherwise, I could not have watched it. I’m a 65 year old
6’1” man in moderate shape. I believe I would have no problem taking on that Rouse chick with moderate training first. Not physical training. Defensive fighting training. Moderate.
