Review: Charlie’s Angels Full Throttle |
This second installment starts slowly and I guess my only huge problem with this revival of the classic TV series is that it is not very much like the series. Bernie Mac is great but Bernie Mac as Bos? And not just Bosley, but Bosley’s brother? They never explain how or why or if this should make sense, but hey, it actually works. Bernie Mac as Bos is a hundred times better than Bill Murray was in the first movie. And then there is all the action. I don’t remember Charlie’s Angels being an action flick, but more like a detective flick. So if you get these series conflicts out of your head, you can then sit back and enjoy this movie. I thought it was overall better than the first. Could have had a little more skin from the Angels. Grade: C+




Of course, people in countries where the original series didn’t air have no point of comparison. Will see it one of these days, after my week-long vacation in Goa

I saw it on an airplane yesterday, and thought it was hideous. I think your C+ is overly kind.
