What else do you want? Three splendid looking girls, a whole lot of gadgets and kicking ass action. It's all perfectly blend to be another Hollywood blockbuster. Typical style.. However, with Charlie's Angels, a couple of brilliant one-liners and slapstick comedy makes this a memorable watch!
There's nothing too special about the movie actually. They try to make the plot twist by making the good guy in the first place turn baddie, but it's all in the manual. Most viewers can predict this all along. Maybe the one that we want is to know who Charlie really is. But, they don't wanna give u that!!
The other thing about this movie is about the kick-ass action. Yeah-yeah, it's cool bla2x.. But, I'm sure you've seen them before right? There's too much The Matrix and MI-2 element in the movie. But, maybe this time they try to prove that girls can kick-ass as well! And better at doing that compared to guys, i guess! Obviously, they(Diaz, Liu and Barrymore) look stunningly good with their kung-fu movement and style. But, I think they overdone themselves in this movie and sometimes can get carried away..
All in all, Charlie's Angels is an entertaining movie, that is for sure. But, with less Hollywood typical blend, it could be better. But, we love Hollywood, don't we? :)

Advantages: Absolutely no brain power or concentration required, a feel good film, nice to look at, superb soundtrack. Disadvantages: You don't 'get much' out of the film, absolutely no feasible story line
Advantages: Anything that has Cameron Diaz in it, wet and 'unzipped' to the waist has got to get 5 stars Disadvantages: not sure Lucy Liu was the right casting for the 3rd 'Angel'

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
