100So phenomenal that Bill Murray can't even steal it. And he tries. So excellent that Murray's MTV progeny Tom Green can't sink it.
-
80These kickass Barbies bring heart to a machine tooled genre.
-
80A charming, hyper-energetic, and wittily self-aware action comedy about gorgeous girls.
-
80The gals are fab. And so's the movie.
-
78A simply flat-out fun film.
-
75An update with a jolt of sheer exuberance.
-
75The film's tongue is so firmly in cheek that, without being a spoof like "Dragnet" or "The Brady Bunch Movie," it has more in common with the "Austin Powers" films.
-
75A babe-athon, pure and simple.
-
Irresistible, campy fun.
-
75Charlie's Angels is finally Cameron Diaz's movie. Her Natalie has a heart as insecure as her body is smokin'.
-
70Who cares about the fate of privacy, of all things, when you can watch three sexy babes stamp out crime in zip-off suits and high-heeled boots?
-
70Something rare: a mess of a movie that is somehow infectious, and infectious not despite the mess, but because of it.
-
67A big, loud, sometimes clever, often dumb behemoth of a movie.
-
63The most charming bad movie ever spun off a hit TV show.
-
63It's to these Angels' credit that they, like the movie, are at least intermittent fun.
-
60This entertaining confection possesses the substance of the TV show, the pacing of a Hong Kong actioner and the production values of a James Bond thriller.
-
50The movie's still thinner than a supermodel's waist. It's not just that the results are less than heavenly; it's that we don't know what the hell they are.
-
50Too bad the action scenes rarely rise above standard kung-fu comedy, diluting the film's otherwise considerable entertainment value.
-
50What's on screen is a hash, though it may very well be the most comprehensive catalog of male erotic fantasies in one single film.
-
50The dialogue includes double entendres that are rather clever, if you're mentally at the age of 11.
-
50The cheesy disco action scenes are topped only by the movie's ripe double entendres and continual cheesecake.
-
50While it's not exactly the complete bomb that some were predicting, Charlie's Angels is ultimately just an amiable mess.
-
50A potato chip of a movie. Tasty and lightweight, it's fine for a cinematic snack, if that's what you're looking for. Making it an entire meal, however, really isn't advisable.
-
50It never pretends that it's anything more than trashy, cheesy fun. But even trash -- especially trash this expensive -- should at least be well made. Sure, it's easy on the eyes, but would a little brains be too much to ask?
-
50The best you can say for this version of Charlie's Angels is that it retains a sort of chipper, eerie good nature as it wastes the studio's money and our time.
-
42At its best, it is self-effacing fun.But the cartoonish approach takes its toll: The random twists and contrived showdowns devolve into just so much abstract business, too silly to take seriously and too unmotivated to make sense.
-
40So inconsequential that it starts evaporating from memory the minute it's over.
-
40It tries to be both camp and action film--send-up and kick-ass. But it delivers so little on both fronts.
-
40The first third or so offers all the dominatrix fantasies one might wish for, but then fantasy gives way to the aggressiveness of the special effects and optical effects.
-
30Of course, it's terrible -- but did it have to be this bad?
-
30A tarted-up but tedious reprise of the '70s TV series.
-
25It's hard to believe how bad this movie is.
-
25An utter debacle.
-
12It's a movie without a brain. Charlie's Angels is like the trailer for a video game movie, lacking only the video game, and the movie.
