Critics Consensus

Eye candy for those who don't require a movie to have a plot or for it to make sense.

David Ansen

Newsweek

This is one of the silliest movies ever made--and lots of instantly forgettable fun.

London Evening Standard

The movie is constructed not so much of scenes, but of the poses that Charlie's Voguers throw as they preen and pout their way through a series of pop videos.

The Times (UK)

The sequel to Charlie's Angels is a bit like being spritzed in the face with all the bad teenage perfume ever made.

The work apparently sets out to prove that a film in the "post-modern" and "post-logocentric" age needs no plot whatsoever, merely large amounts of energy and technological wizardry.

The film has so many fun curiosities that I find myself unable to fail it.

Rated: 1.0/4.0

Starburst

A film that concurrently confused adrenaline-fuelled whimsy with hacky over-editing, and Justin Theroux with someone capable of doing an Irish accent.

This one makes the first one look good as well as making this seem like a porno, just without the sex.

Worst movie I've seen in a long time. First movie wasn't memorable, but this one is trash, and the costumes I don't think could have been worse. NRJ.

I can forgive the lack of plot and general tropey-ness of the movie - it’s only trying to be a dumb, fun action movie. But that doesn’t excuse the nonsensical fight choreography, laughable special effects, or painfully forced one liners. It’s close to being so bad it’s hilarious, but falls short and lands with a limp thud in the garbage pit.

Full Throttle didn't quite capture the same energy and excitement as the first Charlie's Angels, but it's still a fun watch. The acting by Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, and Lucy Liu remains solid, and the production sticks to the flashy style of the original with over-the-top action and vibrant visuals. That said, the direction feels less focused, and the plot is more convoluted. The cinematography uses the same slow-motion and close-up techniques as the first, but at times it feels excessive. Despite this, the chemistry among the leads keeps things entertaining, and the movie embraces its campy, over-the-top nature. While not as strong as the original, it's enjoyable enough for fans of the series.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, and Lucy Liu are still a dynamic trio that kicks some serious ass. Add in Bernie Mac, and John Cleese for some humourous moments. The story is weak but the cars are sweet!
