The Long Kiss Goodnight is a pretty straightforward action movie from 1996 starring Geena Davis in the lead. Samuel L. Jackson co-stars.

Working backward from there:

La Femme Nikita (1990) and the American remake Point of No Return (1994)

Foxy Brown (1974) and Coffy (1973) are offerings from the blaxploitation angle.
