The crown jewel of Her Majesty's Secret Intelligence Service, Agent Lorraine Broughton (Theron) is equal parts spycraft, sensuality and savagery, willing to deploy any of her skills to stay alive on her impossible mission. Sent alone into Berlin to deliver a priceless dossier out of the destabilized city, she partners with embedded station chief David Percival (James McAvoy) to navigate her way through the deadliest game of spies. —Focus Features

Trivia
Charlize Theron had eight personal trainers to help her master her intensely physical performance. She also trained with Keanu Reeves, who was preparing for John Wick: Chapter 2 (2017).

Goofs
In the underground station before entering East-Berlin, West-German custom officers were shown checking papers of travellers into the east. This is wrong in two aspects. First, West-Germany regarded East-Germany as a part of the still existing Germany. Border checks would have given the impression that there are two individual states, something any West-German government (left or right) avoided like a plague. Second, all underground stations that featured a border crossing, were located in East-Berlin. West-Berlin officials would have never been allowed there.

Quotes
David Percival: You can't un-fuck what's been fucked. You know, a beautiful Italian girl once said to me, "David, you can't unfuck what's been fucked." Women are always getting in the way of progress, aren't they?

Crazy credits
There is a credit for "Best Camera Trainee Ever."

Alternate versions
The lesbian scenes were cut from the Arab version release.

Everything You Want In One Film

Great film or what? It had it all. Action, intrigue, spying, fashionable woman who is well put together, sexiness, zaniness and violence. It was great. This chick is hot and yet she kicked rear end. She didn't have to be ugly to be empowered. I loved it. I wish only people would stop comparing it to John Wick. That film was stupid. At the end, the whole world and 1,000 people around them were all part of this secret underworld. That made no sense. Atomic Blonde did make sense.
