Critics Consensus

Mixing tongue-in-cheek cheesecake with glossy action set pieces, Charlie's Angels is slick and resonably fun despite its lack of originality.

Anne Cohen Refinery29 Though undeniably flawed, the movie...remains a surprisingly fun watch. Oct 1, 2019 Full Review Nell Minow Common Sense Media Edgy girl power fun. You go, girls! Rated: 4/5 Dec 22, 2010 Full Review Nigel Floyd Time Out This is nothing but trailer moments. Ex-pop video director McG couldn't organise a pillow fight in a bedding factory. Feb 9, 2006 Full Review Leigh Paatsch Herald Sun (Australia) Low-concept, high-octane fun is the order of the day here, and the goods are delivered in full with a forceful frivolity that is irresistible in every sense of the word. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 2, 2020 Full Review Nick Rogers Midwest Film Journal You may consider this the loosened collar or tightened noose on lightweight American action. But the film remains a kitschy, kick-butt confection that embraces the utter disposability of its severe necklines, sheer pantylines and silly plotlines. Rated: 3.5/5 Nov 12, 2019 Full Review Allison Rose FlickDirect Barrymore is the best of the three here but the group has great chemistry and they work well as a cohesive unit.

Ralph R Charlie's Angels might not be perfect, but I still enjoy it every time I watch it. Sure, there's an overemphasis on style, and it has its gratuitous moments, but honestly, it works. The over-the-top action, comedy, and wittiness complement the movie's tone. It's not trying to be a replica of the original series; instead, it's doing its own thing, and it's a lot of fun. The direction is solid, and the plot is simple enough to follow without overcomplicating things. The cinematography has its highs, with some memorable scenes, though the frequent use of slow motion and close-ups can feel unnecessary. That said, they don't hurt the movie-they just add to its flashy, unique vibe. The acting isn't bad either. Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, and Lucy Liu bring a lot of energy and charm to their roles, and I like how the movie feels like it's always on the move. The characters are all over the place (in a good way), which gives the film its own signature style. Overall, Charlie's Angels is a fun, flashy action-comedy that doesn't take itself too seriously. It's entertaining, energetic, and definitely worth a watch if you're in the mood for something lighthearted and over-the-top. It might not be groundbreaking, but it's undeniably fun! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/10/24 Full Review Inaki V In 2024, this movie gets much more appreciated. It was never trying to be serious. We understand CAMP now and this is honestly a wonderful representation of strong, complex and fully realized female characters Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/21/24 Full Review Jelisije J Compared to a lot of action films its a dumb corny over the top mindless fun of a film. Nothing great or good about it but nothing to offensive either. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/12/24 Full Review Willian H Charlie’s Angels dives into action and comedy with a standout cast. Although it’s from the 2000s, the film is an example of how entertainment can be both smart and carefree. Despite a clichéd hide-and-seek narrative, it’s the execution that keeps it light. The visual aesthetic and a memorable soundtrack complement the action sequences with choreography and absurdity. While the plot falls into the trap of exaggeration, Charlie’s Angels makes up for it with elegant and playful self-irony. It’s not a deep film, but it’s undoubtedly an experience that delivers quality entertainment and laughs. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/26/24 Full Review Audience Member Absolute garbage. Was hoping for a serious mission impossible style movie. Instead got vapid, boobs and bums idiocy encapsulated in an awful unrealistic story line. I can’t believe anybody thot it was good. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/02/24 Full Review Rebecca G Great movie. Love the action. Fun to watch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
