Rating: Summary: fully BOMB! Review: f the haters. this movie was sexy, action packed and FULLY A COMEDY. perhaps some of the one star viewers have closed head injuries or no sense of humor; but all those over the top matrix style effects where they slap each others butts were FUNNY AS HECK - and you know it was done on purpose. i hated the matrix. thought it was a tedious photocopy of a bad comic book. but CHARLIES ANGELS FULL THROTTLE, perfectly parodies the over the top visceral quality of the action, then throws in a comic twist (jumping from exploding helicopter to hot pink convertable in mid air etc) and then adds a slap on the butt(starshiptroopers style -another parody thats perhaps too deadpan) FULL THROTTLE was one fo my favorite movies last year. i didnt bother with the "bored of the rings" hobbit flick (when will someone make a decent adaptation of THE GOLDEN ASS, or GARGANTUA)... please, please, please, make charlies angels part three. VIVA!
Rating: Summary: It Should Receive Negative 5 Stars Review: The movie is hyperactive. There is zero character development. The movie is totally predictable. The pandering to sex-crazed teenage boys is shameless and in poor taste. The editors need Ritalin. The writers are probably ashamed. And director "McG" should just change his name to "McD" and become the living emodiement of the junk culture he's intent on spewing all over the screen. The story is unbelievably ridiculous. The horrific script wastes actors like Luke Wilson and Matt LeBlanc. They basically stand around, bored, and flirt with their respective "Angels." Demi Moore is as robotic and charmless as she's ever been. And considering how atrociously underweight Moore, Diaz and Lucy are, the movie looks like soft-core pornography for reanimated skeletons. Drew Barrymoore is the only actress at a decent weight, but she's so unlikeably stupid that it renders her character completely annoying. Oh, the stunts are contrived, the ceaseless music is a prescription for a headache, and McG should be sent to a MTV Gulag -- senteced to make the same video over and over and over again. Oh wait, he did that, it's called Charlie's Angels Full Throttle. This movie is maybe worse than the worst Steven Seigal movie every made, but it's most definitely worse than the worst Jean Claude Van Damme movie ever made. It's worthless and the fact that Hollywood wastes precious film stock on this garbage should cause the movie goers to riot. Take Run Lola Run, strip it of all imagination, character development, timing, pacing, and charm; add in about fifty pounds of market research and terrible music and you have this movie. It's an awful waste of time.
Rating: Summary: Charlie Angels 2 Review: I have seen this DVD and I find it so stupid. It is not worth the value of money after doing "Matrix" and stunts. It does not related to the original Charlie Angels. Demi Moore - I thought she would have picked a better script than this. Take notice - DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT bother watching it as you will be wasting 120 mins of this stupid film...
Rating: Summary: Almost verging on porn, dead on for tastlessness. Review: I don't know what was more stupid about this movie, it was either the tasteless jokes, the stupid action, or the fact that three women would go through all this nonsense to appear in a second rate/second rate movie that the Sony company turns out regularly. Give me a break.
Rating: Summary: Big, Pretty, Loud, Fun and Dumb Review: It happened with 'The Avengers', to an extent it happened with 'Batman Returns', and now it's happening with 'Charlie's Angels 2: Full Throttle'. Critics and audiences alike lambasting a perfectly entertaining movie becuase of it's OTT-ness and refusal to adhere to the principles lain down in the original media. Except what audiences and critics seem unable to remember is that for a modern remake of a classic comic/pulp TV show you can't just adhere to the situations and plotlines of the original becuase they would look silly and outdated. What the above mentioned movies have done, to one degree of success or another, is take a well-loved premise and updated it witha hefty dose of fun and irony, and thankfully, 'Charlie's Angels 2: Full Throttle' is one of the more successful ventures. Reprising their roles as Dylan, Alex and Natalie, Drew barrymore, Lucy Liu and Cameron Diaz look like they're having the on-screen time of their lives, as they follow a perfunctory plot about FBI Information and an ngel-turned-Bad, Madison Lee (Demi Moore in a fne return to top form). Helped by an all-new Bosley (Bernie Mac in an entertaining, if hugely predictable turn) and some wildly unbelievable stunt-work, the Angels punch, kick and simper their way across all 107 minutes of this picture. The chemistry between the three leads is as unmistakable as it is central to the success of the movie. Moore as Lee is suitably devilish as the sexually ambiguous powermonger, and other supporting cast nods go to Mac, Crispin glover as the ridiculously OTT Thin Man and a wonderful cameo from the still-gorgeous jaclyn Smith as Kelley Garrett (from the original TV run, but we can't help but wonder how fabulous she would have been in Moore's role). Directorially this movie doesn't do anything big or clever - as with all matrix-effects-clones, the action comes thick and fast - but it's enjoyable, just the same. McG does a very good job at keeping us sucked in and laughing. All in all, this is a total no-brainer of an action flick. It doesn't ask you to think, rather sits you down and does all the work by itself. It's a shallow, glamorous and totally fun roll in the hay with three fabulous femmes fatale. Fans of story-driven action may want to go elsewhere, but leave your brain at reception and you'll love it just as much as the original movie. Recommended.
Rating: Summary: Zero stars... Review: . I'm a big fan of Drew Barrymore, so I wanted to like this movie, I really did. The movie is a bunch of mindless action sequences. That's ok, because it's an action movie, right? But this movie goes further and insults your intelligence. It shows you the impossible and you're supposed to accept it like it really happened. There has to be some reality to an action movie and there has to be some sort of plot to a movie to make it enjoyable. My memory is fuzzy because it's been awhile, but the scene where the three of them are blown out of a building (through windows) and land perfectly on the ground evenly spaced apart from each other, even though they were in different parts of the room at the time. Once in a movie is acceptable, but this movie is one slap after another to the face of any thinking person. Sure, I liked seeing the girls parade around in skimpy outfits, but give us credit... we're not that shallow. The movie shoves girl power down your throat, but makes it highly unbelievable at the same time... just the sort of thing every young girl needs to see, women doing the impossible. Nice role models. The so-called "fighting" in this movie is a bunch of wire-fu sequences that are equally unbelievable. It's an over-the-top stuntfest first and a movie second. Stunts alone don't make a movie and that was their big mistake--that and making the stunts so over the top they make you laugh because of the impossible. This movie teeters just above Kung Pow--the worst movie in recent history.
Rating: Summary: Great Movie! I don't know why people said it suck! Review: When I saw Charlie's Angels 2, it trutly blew me away. It was a lot better than the first part and it had a good plot. The action was cool and alot better than that stupid movie "The Matrix Reloaded". I reccommend this movie to anyone who are fighting fans! The only part they messed up on was when Demi Moore jumped off the building and flew throught the sky. That looked too fake!
Rating: Summary: forget about gravity or the lawsofphysics?Is this the Matrix Review: No this is not the matrix. Why does every film now think they can have these slow motion super-human fight scenes when there are no mutants or monsters just charlie's angels(they never flew in the 70's). I have a real big problem with this film. Mainly because it panders to the brainless masses that will watch and love anything that has enough commercials backing it up. Thats the problem they spent the whole buddget on ads and crapy over-priced actresses and forgot to include a plot that does'nt rely on something blowing up every two minutes. Bottom-line I could'nt watch for more than twenty minutes it could very well be one of the worst films ever made.
Rating: Summary: FullThrottle-No Fuel! Review: Would give this movie zero stars if they let me. A true cinematic disaster. Bad plot w/ even worse acting. The original Angels the ARE NOT! Most of the reviewers don't know who the original Angels even are. Bring back Farrah Fawcett, Jacklyn Smith, Kate Jackson, Cheryl Ladd, Shelly Hack, and Tanya Roberts any day. Thanks for giving us another crap movie ..... Hollywood! As for McG he McSucks!
Rating: Summary: A refreshing film with plenty of action and laughs! Review: Charlie's Angels Full Throttle is a great film - its refreshing from all the confusing and rubbish films such as The Matrix 2&3 because its actually fun to watch! In every scene there is a different style - the colours are bright and the soundtrack is great! When Ive read peoples responses to this film, they say its "unrealistic", but thats what makes it fun as you can escape reality and go into another world! The aim of this film is to entertain and make you feel good, and it definitely does this!! Watch this film again and again...you wont be disappointed!
