Rating: Summary: Get Down Angels!!!!!!!! Review: I loved "Charlie's Angels" it was action packed, and it has some of the most amazing fight scenes I have ever witnessed. I loved Drew, Lucy, and Cameron so much in this comedy that I wonder if there will be a sequel. I was also surprised to see Crispin Glover (George McFly) Now there's a person I haven't seen in a long time.
Rating: Summary: Okay Plot, Great Fun Review: Good Morning Angels....Charlie's Angels, if you don't know, is about 3 women (Diaz,Barrymore,Liu) who work for a mysterious man who know one has met by the naem of Charlie. They also have a sidekick, Bosley (Billy Murray) to help them. The plot is rather blah, but the action, comedy, and fun is at the maximum. The fight sequences are great! I love this movie and it is worth buying.Thank You
Rating: Summary: Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! Review: This is by far the most entertaining movie I have ever seen! It is so much fun to watch over and over again.Diaz, Barrymore , and Liu do perfect in playing their roles. I don't understand why some people have been negitive about this movie.It's great! You just have to be prepared to watch something wild and silly and you will enjoy it very much. Trust me, watch it and you won't regret it!
Rating: Summary: Talking about boyfriends and kicking [...] Review: I liked this movie, and as a father, I liked what it communicated to my eight year old daughter. It said that women could look great, feel confident, and be strong, smart and assertive. The Angels communicate a paradigm of female existence that is powerful, self-reliant, dependable and unafraid. Contrast the King Fu fighting, computer re-programming, versatile Angels with earlier epitomes of womanhood: I would rather my daughter emulate an Angel than, say, Sandra Dee's Tammy, or even uncertain and faltering Mary Richards. If there is such a thing as an enlightened post-feminist woman, think it looks something like one of the Angels. On a simpler level, this is a flashy, fast and fun movie. The martial arts sequences are choreographed by Master Cheung, Cheung Yan-Yeun, the Kung Fu choreographer from Hong Kong who was responsible for the levitating kicks of The Matrix. As with that film, the principals trained full time for months and the hard work shows: the fight scenes are great. (And, as with that film, cables hoist the performers into the air for a few stylish, gravity-defying manuevers). The director, who calls himself "McG" (the first three letters of his middle name), is not as dumb as his name sounds. His faith and enthusiasm in the film, plus a surprisingly deep appreciation of subtler cinema values (such as the MGM Musical, or the importance of hue changes across a frame) lift this movie well above more typical action fare.
Rating: Summary: A modern remake that puts a smile on your dile Review: Charlie's Angels, while it will certainly not appeal to everyone, is a greatly entertaining remake of the classic TV show. It is faithful to the story of the sassy, smart, ... girls and tries to do nothing but let the audience kick back and enjoy the ride. We certainly do! Charlie's Angels is a mix between an action and comedy, and it succeeds in both areas. The action is both silly and amazing, a car-chase between Natalie and a nicely dressed man is filmed cleverly and the fight scenes are brilliantly reminiscent of The Matrix. The comedy will crack you up, Cameron's cuteness really wins us over, her dancing scenes ' especially one at an all-black nightclub ' are comedic and visually impressive. Just seeing these girls trip over and enjoy themselves is enough to put a smile on our face. On second viewing, I thought Billy Murray could've had more scenes because his character Bosley is just really neat. Aside all that, you better warm those nachos because here I come Charlie's Angels 2!
Rating: Summary: Great fun! Great Movie! Review: I just rented this move this weekend and I'm sitting here at 5 AM watching it again. I truly thought this movie had everything I was looking for, funny, it had tons of action and lots of girl power! The only thing I didn't like was Tom Green's cameo..I didn't find him funny or amusing or even adding anything to the movie I found him to be dumb and found myself fast fowarding through his "Chad" scenes. Drew Barrymore was an absolute delight as well as Diaz's underwear dance!
Rating: Summary: Surprisingly good!!! Review: I couldn't believe it i thought i was absolutly going to hate this movie but it was surprisingly sooooo- good.... after tossing and turning through MI2 with those stupid overexagerated slo-mo bs i expected the same here but the efx were done correctly just enough to entertain me, fantastic. i liked the way the original angels music was modernized and used but to keep this short i actually bought this and will watch it several more times!!!! excellent job and the babes are hot as well:)
Rating: Summary: Action, Babes, and good fight scenes! Loved it! Review: What made this movie so good was it was able to stick to the television series and make it come to real life.......the fighting scenes were well done and the action and special effects were done superbly.......there was everything in this movie and I"ll continue to watch it cus I know I'll always be entertained!
Rating: Summary: Mid range. and crazy too Review: The basic plot of this movie is a little juvenile, I guess wehn you put character's that weren't around during the real Angel's series then it is hard for an actual replica. The movie was okay as far as the acting, the music, the presentation. I watched this movie in hopes of seeing a really good re-make of the real angels. Of course no one beats Farrah Fawset, she was an origianl. I didn't like how they made these angel's so ditzy and stupidfied, but they were so smart as to be able to fight well. Hmm, makes me wonder what Hoolywood is really up too. I watched this in hopes of true plot and story. In the end the basic wind up to the climax is just horrific. The only reason I am giving this flick 3 stars is because without the story they didn't have much. The plot of the movie is that there are some bad guys (of course) and they are trying to capture Charlie, (because he supposedly killed some psycho kids father in the Army) so the Angel's are called in on an assignment (...)This is a silly movie, yet the acting is really beliveable, and true to life. Drew Barrymore stole the screen along with Lucy Liu. I watch a lt of movies and I think that they could have done a better job on this one.
Rating: Summary: Charlie's Angels: 2 movies in 1, on an awesome DVD Review: By the average customer rating of 3 1/2 stars, I can tell this movie isn't the most well-liked movie in the world, and I can tell some of the negative reviews of this movie claim Charlie's Angels is nothing more than mindless drivel. Well, technically that's correct, but that's only 1/2 of the movie. And that's the half director McG calls an "ode-to-joy, pop-a-wheelie kind of movie", and I couldn't agree more. But I want to remind you people that there is a plot in this movie! And may I say that it's a very clever plot indeed, very reminiscent of the TV show, that leads to a heavy plot-twist that's completly unpredictible; one that seems to just pop out of left field, but yet, makes sense if you go back and observe. What I'm trying to say is Charlie's Angels is 2 movies seamlessly combined; an old-fashioned "leave your brain at the door" movie, and a movie quite the opposite. And it's totally up to you which one you want to see. If you're bored and need some good entertainment, I recommend you watch this as a "leave-your-brain at the door movie". This means for you to pay as little attention to the plot as possible, and focus on all the eye candy McG has to offer, like the Angels themselves. Also, focus on the spectacular array of stars that appear in the movie, even for only a glorified cameo, like Matt LeBlanc, Luke Wilson, Tom Green, Sam Rockwell, Tim Curry, Bill Murray, and the list goes on and on. But don't forget the fight scenes, the action sequences, the cool visuals (like the slow-motion hair flips and the split screens), and last, but not least, the knockout explosions. But if watching the movie this way doesn't appeal to you, watch it for the plot only. Follow the plot as it happens, and try to find clues of the plot twist in the middle of the movie, and keep reminding yourself that the "leave your brain at the door" stuff DOES have a place in the movie, and that Charlie's Angels is NOT just an empty-headed movie with all pizzazz and no plot. I recommend watching the movie one way, and then the other. If you watch it only one way OR the other, you haven't really seen the whole movie. However, if you try to watch both movies in one sitting, you'll be confused about the movie and may not like it, which may explain why the people who hate this movie feel the way they do. I recommend to those people to give this movie another chance the way it was meant to be seen. Did I mention this is also a GREAT DVD? It has awesome picture quality and sound, and also features director and cinematographer commentary, five behind-the-scenes featurettes, the bare-bones version of the thin man alley fight scene without the wire-removal and the music. It also features all the deleted scenes, the music videos, talent files, and the two theatrical trailers for Charlie's Angels, as well as 6 others for other movies. This is one of the best DVDs I own, and it is a MUST-BUY! So, to summarize this review, Charlie's Angels is two movies mixed together to make one awesome final product, on an awesome DVD! SEE THIS MOVIE!
