exactly as it should be. Its popular 2000 predecessor got the formula right: gorgeous babes, throwaway plots and as many current pop-cultural trends as you could stuff into a candy-coated dollop of Hollywood mayhem. This sequel goes one "better": the plot is even more disposable (if that's possible), the babes, cars, and fashions are even more outlandish and the stuntwork (heavily digital, heavily absurd) reaches astonishing heights of cartoon silliness. Reprising their titular (and shamelessly titillating) roles, Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu are having the time of their lives, especially when sparring with ultra-buff rogue angel Demi Moore (looking better at 40 than most women half her age) and Justin Theroux as a sleazy Irish mobster. Bernie Mac replaces Bill Murray as angel-sidekick Bosley (they're step-brothers, don'cha know), which is one more indication of McG's intentionally reckless stewardship of an intentionally reckless franchise. --Jeff Shannon

DVD Description
CHARLIE'S ANGELS and CHARLIE'S ANGELS FULL THROTTLE packaged together in a handy set. Disc 1: CHARLIE'S ANGELS Based on the babe-a-licious show from the 1970s, CHARLIE'S ANGELS is a defiantly goofy action movie featuring plenty of comedy and a strong sense of girl power. Three talented young women work for the mysterious Charles Townsend: Natalie (Cameron Diaz), the bubbly blond science expert; Dylan (Drew Barrymore), the rebellious tomboy; and Alex (Lucy Liu), the tough Angel who has trouble telling her boyfriend that she's a highly skilled secret agent. The Angels are assigned to locate Eric Knox (Sam Rockwell), a kidnapped computer expert whose new software could threaten global security if it were to fall into the wrong hands. The women go undercover to investigate this devious tycoon and are faced with double crosses, explosions, and the mysterious Thin Man. From the acclaimed music-video director McG (Joseph McGinty), CHARLIE'S ANGELS wastes little time on plot, instead presenting audiences with a series of spectacular MATRIX-style fight sequences, car chases, and stunts. Diaz, Barrymore, and Liu as the three Angels give terrific performances worthy of a new breed of female action hero, kicking major butt while remaining lovable and sexy. The movie also stars Bill Murray as the Angels' mentor, Bosley, and John Forsythe as the voice of Charlie. Disc 2: CHARLIE'S ANGELS: FULL THROTTLE reunites Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz, and Lucy Liu as they once again wage battle against some formidable opponents. This time around the three angels are on a mission to track down two stolen rings that contain encrypted information relating to the Witness Protection Program. Naturally the girls kick some serious butt, often facing some familiar villains in the shape of a returning Crispin Glover (as the Thin Man) and Justin Theroux (as Seamus O'Grady), a former beau of Barrymore's character. To further spice things up, there is an ex-angel, played by a shapely Demi Moore, who is rather keen on getting her hands on the rings, all adding up to lots of thrills and spills for the girls. Director McG returns from the original movie, this time upping the action ante with a series of spectacular stunts and CGI-assisted tricks. Employing a neverending array of celebrity cameo appearances, McG builds on the momentum of the previous movie and neatly balances the combination of comedy set pieces and action sequences. Cast and crew keep their tongues planted firmly in their cheeks throughout, leading to a not-too-serious romp that is a feast for the eyes.
Advantages: funny, fun and fantastic! Disadvantages: none if you liked the first film!
...Charlie’s Angels: FullThrottle
The Angels are back. Once again Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz and Lucy Liu star as Dylan, Natalie and Alex, the three stunning ass-kicking Angels who fight against evil. Charlie sends the girls to find out what going on when people on the witness protection program die mysteriously. They must retrieve two titanium rings, which contain valuable encrypted data that can reveal the new identities of everyone on the witness protection program. These rings have of course fallen into the wrong hands. Its up to the Angels to get them back before anymore of the witnesses get murdered.
I love this film, I’ve watched it three times already and I think its great. The storyline is good, the acting was great and the cameo rolls were brilliant – Matt Le Blanc, John Cleese and Pink to name a few. FullThrottle...

Advantages: Sexy girls, good effects Disadvantages: Lack of plot, any opportunity for an explosion is grabbed
...with little more than a hair out of place.
And that is how Charlie's Angels: FullThrottle starts. From that piece you can basically gather everything you need to know about the rest of the film: Diaz is the kooky, fun-loving one, Barrymore is tough tomboy, and Lui is the stylish classy flexible one, the plot doesn't matter at all, the angels always win, with ne'er even smudging their lipstick, and they do all of this in ridiculous heels.
FullThrottle is an appropriate name. Everything about the film is done to the max - the numerous explosions, the action set-pieces, the exaggerated villains, the girls' outfits, the gadgets, the sexy dance sequences, the "token black guy" - Bernie Mac's Bosley. It's overblown, overexcited, and slightly overrated.
There are some great parts to Charlie's Angels. One scene in particular where they fight some...
