I didn't think i would like this film because i'm not really a big action movie fan. However i thought that this was one of the best movies i have seen in ages. Its very much a boys film with lots of shots of the Angels bending over and the fact that every top worn by Cameron Diaz was cut down to her bellybutton but i still enjoyed it a lot.
I think the best description of the film i have heard was "gloriously kitsch". This could not be more true of the modern day angels!!
The clothes and sets were great if a little overexaggerated as were the effects. Quite a lot of Matrix style slow motion running through the air happens during fight sequences making this as much a spoof as an action movie.
Overall a really good film, i would certainly recommend it.

Advantages: The captured light heartness of the original program and the excellent casting. Disadvantages: Predictable ending which i suppose cant be avoided.

Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD)
Advantages: Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz... Disadvantages: The most stupid film ever, even worse than The Avengers, possibly as bad as Batman and Robin
