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...
more...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.

What matters in Charlies angels
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by mitico

Advantages: The Angels
Disadvantages: The plot

...remake of the slightly remembered Charlie's Angels 70's series a chance. One, the curiosity of the classic's remake. Two, Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu. I have to admit the film tries hard to borrow as many aspects from the series as possible, but in this it gives up any chance of bringing up a decent interesting plot, what is left being a very predictable story. I has a go at being a comedy but results a fight light action movie. Nevertheless ... Read review

Angels who know how to fight with flesh
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by oniony2k

Advantages: Angels who know martial arts!!!
Disadvantages: Story a bit old.

I must admit that Cameron Diaz, Drew Berrymore and Lucy Liu, the new century three angels (Natalie, Dylan and Alex) who worked for a billionare named Charlie (who never showed his face in the movie as in the TV sitcom), who really have put countless efforts on the movie. As I know from all the information and reviews of the movie, the three attractive actresess have to learn martial arts 6-7 hours per day from a action director from Hong Kong (who ... Read review

Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by Curlylady

Advantages: high-action
Disadvantages: no real plot and totally unbelievable

...can land a job like Charlie's where the three beautiful women rush around in order to please him and ask only that they should have the privilege of meeting him in person one day! The Angels windmill their way through 90 minutes' worth of assorted bad guys and doofus boyfriends in an attempt to save the day which culminates in an attempt to save the elusive Charlie from being assassinated. Along the way they perform countless splits, high kicks ... Read review

Deadly Trio
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by the_mad_cabbie

Advantages: The Action Scenes. The three girls
Disadvantages: Nothing

~ ~ It makes me a little sad to have to admit that I am old enough to remember the TV detective series, which inspired the making of this film. (I think it’s now being repeated on Sky?) I loved this series starring Farrah Fawcett and Jocelyn Smith (I forget the third “angel, shame on me!) as the Angels, and actor Bill Murray as “Bosley”, the go-between who protected the identity of the never to be seen “Charlie”. New ... Read review

Lightweight comedy caper
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by Mercury

Advantages: Great action sequences, the angels, Bill Murray
Disadvantages: Poor poor script.

Charlies Angels is another 70's TV-series to big screen attempt and to be honest it does not do all that much better than the easily-forgettable Avengers. The opening sequence of the movie sets the tone firmly as self-parody... Drew Barrymore improbably disguised Mission Impossible 2 style. The film has a poor script and a slightly above average plot (for action films) with a fairly effective midway twist. The poor script is, perhaps, the most ... Read review

Charlies Angels Movie Review
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by michaelcrook

Advantages: Excellent fight scenes.
Disadvantages: Feels somewhat disjointed.

I was drawn to watch this movie by the 'eye-candy' trailers and surprise surprise what did I get when seeing the film? Enough eye-candy to destroy your teeth for three lifetimes. This isn't to say the film is bad. It's exactly what you would expect. If you want lots of fairly loosely linked set-piece scenes joined together in such a way that you really begin to wonder whether you watching on of those adverts where by the end of it you haven't got ...

Angels Good, Film Not Bad
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by sdavey

Advantages: Cameron Diaz, good laugh
Disadvantages: Action Scenes not great

Went to see the film tonight... Bit dubious as some of the reviews have been less than good I was Pleasantly supprised to find that this film is very good. Its shot in the style of the original series, which will appeal to all the fans of the original series, whilst bringing in a whole wealth of new fans. The most impressive aspect of this film is Cameron Diaz, she simply shines, oozing charm, and sexuality. Despite a rather lacklustre script, ... Read review

The best Action comedy of the year
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by elspeth334

Advantages: Great action scenes
Disadvantages: None

Charlies Angels is simply a great action comedy that doesn't take itself too seriously. It has amazing Matrix style action scenes in which Cameron Diaz, Lucy Lui and Drew Barrymore fly through the air for insane amounts of time before kicking someone. You either like this or hate it but I think it's great. The acting is great with each of the above playing very different people. The are some great comedy moments in this film one of the best is when ... Read review

Good Morning Charlie
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by KateCB

Advantages: Good value afternoons entertainment
Disadvantages: Prectictable, but so was the series

I wasn't looking forward to seeing this, but dragged along my daughter and husband agreed it was worth seeing. The right amount of Angelish fawning over Bosley and Charlie, good action packed plot, with the 1970's ' hair flicking' by the heriones!Martial arts scenes were a little hard to believe, but the choreography of them was performed well, evening if they did 'Strike the pose' after every confrontation Rated 15 - I believe this is because ...

Get the right angle on the Angels
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by carriethorn

Advantages: Colourful
Disadvantages: waste of time watching

I had my popcorn, sweets and drink at the ready, alongside my husband and daughter, poised with my DVD player to watch Charlies Angels. From the opening scenes I realised that it was not going to be an updated version off the hit series in the 70's. No! Rather it seemed more like a spoof. It was not a film that could be taken at all seriously and the characters were very disappointing. The plot. I lost it! There was a villain or 2. But instead ... Read review

What a load of angel dust
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by katiefletcher

Advantages: Gave me a chance to get some sleep
Disadvantages: I had to pay almost £6 to sleep

Charlie's Angels is probably the most wasted time of my life I've experienced. It was predictable, obvious, dull and had no story line. In short, it was two hours of women in very skimpy clothes jumping around and getting wet. It wasn't even slightly subtle. There were obvious sex scenes, which really had no purpose other than to be slightly crude and obviosuly the good guy turned out to be really evil and there was a scheme being worked... dun dun ...

A non-animation cartoon
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by greensleeves

Advantages: big budget
Disadvantages: weak plot, unreal scenes

...that I should see the Charlie's Angels movie. It was announced as "detective thriller about a computer genius kidnapping". The movie itself, as it looks like, is designed only to show the "so-called" beautiful girls. Actually there's nothing else inside of this film. Sometimes it looks like podium. What about "beautiful", I can quote a man's opinion about them. "A curved-leg Chinese, a fat redhaired cow and a bony nervous blonde". The plot is getting ... Read review

Angels with attitude
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by jacksonandy

Advantages: eye candy. special effects
Disadvantages: lack of a deep plot

I loved this film, I didn't want to, it was one of those wet Sunday afternoon cinema trips to kill time. I remember the original Angels, although not particularly fondly. The beginning of the film had me wondering what the hell I was doing there, the cheese rating of the aircraft / speed-boat sequence was at least 9/10, this however was just setting us up for the main story, which doesn't take too many brain cells to work out. Don't watch Angels ... Read review

Surprisingly -Good-
Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by Manx

Advantages: A glossy finish. Good looking cast. Tim Curry's acting.
Disadvantages: People will have their own idea about the film before they go to see it - and the movie might not be what they expected.

...it is done well in Charlie's Angels. Bullets slow down so you can see what is happening. Flying kicks leap through the air in slow motion. Don't go to this movie to watch the action. Don't go to this movie to watch cheesy 80 stuff. Don't go to this movie to ogle at the pretty girls. Go to this movie and watch it in the spirit in which it was filmed; you will enjoy it then. ...

Review of Charlie's Angels (DVD) by Ethak

Advantages: Special effects, Good story, good casting, excellent film
Disadvantages: None really

...was packed out. Full of action Charlie's Angels made for an entertaining film for everyone. Basically the story is a millionnaire pays 3 "angels" to fight crime and solve mysteries, by beating the hell out of a load of men. The angels had many tight sexy suits and often got wet or active, perfect watching for most men...and I want their wardrobes! I never knew Charlie's Angels the first time around but even if the film wasn't like the orginal ... Read review
