By Paul Perkins.
Hollywood loves to make movies base on popular TV shows (Brady Bunch, Mod squad). Here the next one to hit the big screen. They’re beautiful, they’re Brilliant, They kick ass and they work for Charlie.
Charlie’s Angels is the new version of the original 70’s action-comedy TV series. The new angels are Natalie (Cameron Diaz), Dylan (Drew Barrymore) and Alex (Lucy Liu). The new lieutenant Bosley (Bill Murry), and the voice of Charlie is John Forsythe who has been doing the voice for over 25 years. Their new mission is to find Eric Knox (Sam Rockwell) the brainy founder of Know Technologies who has just been kidnapped from his own office. The reason why is he has designed a voice-identification software program that is better than most fingerprinting technologies.
Knox technologies President Vivian Wood (Kelly Lynch) hires the angels to find Eric. So the girls set there sights on Eric rival Roger Corwin (Tim Curry) who owns Red Star System. The world largest telecommunication satellite network. What they don’t know this is going to be their most dangerous case yet that will put everyone in danger including Charlie.
Well it’s that time again one of the most talked about films of the year is out. I have been waiting for this for a long time now after seeing Charlie’s Angels I was impressed. I lot of people told me it was going to suck they are all wrong.
Good points: 1. The action was very good. They kick a lot of people butt. They use the matrix style of fight sequence. (Slow Motion and Multiple fights). 2. They made the new Charlie’s Angels much different from the TV show. 3. The girls are very beautiful. There was lot of T&A. But of course you knew it would have T&A in it. 4. The outtakes at the end of the film were funny. 5. The cast was great I thought the girls made a good team and there was not one else I could think of to take there place. 5. The soundtrack was very good they had some old school music in the film I was surprise. 6. The trailer did not give a way a lot of the good pats of the film like most trailers do. 7. The beginning of the movie was funny. They show how they became angels.
Bad points: 1. The story was kind of lame. You knew what was going to happen and who the bad guys were. 2. There was a lot of music. I liked the soundtrack, but there was so much music in the film it felt like watching a music video with kung fu.
Overall, I was happy to see Charlie’s Angels. I been waiting for a long time for this film. And it was worth the wait, the action was good the girls was hot and they kicked a lot of but. What more can you want I am going to to see this film again and again this is one good action and comedy movie go see it as soon as you can.
