When I first heard that Charlie's Angels the cult TV series was going to be made into a film starring many well known actresses (Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore)I was looking forward to it. The start seemed pretty OK with the introductions to the three angels. However half way through seeing it I changed my mind. I didn't really know what was going on in the different stages. The only scene that did make me laugh in this so called 'comedy' was where two of the girls dressed up as men. I would have thought that the final scene would have been spectacular for all the fuss that was made about it. However it was nothing, just a normal helicopter race that always seems to happen in these films. The action was quite good in this film but not good enough, and what here was of it the storyline could hardly compensate. All in all it was a bit of a let down.

Sorry about the low rating- this is a promising start (and I loved your title!) but I couldn't give it a VH or an H without more info on characters, a cast list, a bit about the general feel of the film. I would be happy to re-read and re-rate if you edit- just drop a line in my guest book. Welcome to ciao. Alex :)

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: Superb, brain-in-netral campy fun with non-stop flashy action sequences Disadvantages: Very 'music video' in style, Tom Green sucks, not for the curmudgeonly...and don't expect to expand your mind here!

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
