Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle

Movie Charlie's Angels 2: Full Throttle Director McG Cast Drew Barrymore Cameron Diaz Lucy Liu Demi Moore

What makes a movie a cool one? Super SFX, LOL jokes, bitching bodies and some steamy action. Well, Charlie’s Angels is all that. What makes a cool movie a classic? Innovative screenplay, novel plots and offbeat presentation. Well, Charlie’s Angels is "Not" all this. So that’s where CA Full Throttle settles snugly at the cusp of a ‘movie’ and a ‘cool movie’. But that still means it’s nowhere close to a classic or a terrific movie. Needless to say, the spunky go-getting angels pump adrenaline into the moment they appear on screen. They are everything a man would want in a she spy. Smart, sassy, attractive, gutsy and totally baring. Diaz, Lui and Barrymore fit in the roles like hand in glove. The other highlight is big Ms Moore who gives competition to the girls, with her looks and her steamy action in the cameo. Oh yeah, if Moore’s here, can her ex Willis be far behind? Yep, ladies feast your eyes! This time the angels are after a pair of rings that list a complete database of people that are in the FBI’s witness protection program. The catch is to bring the rings together. It could harm the world if these rings fall into the wrong hands. Proving to be the obstacles against the Trixies is Madison Lee (Demi Moore) who was once part of the angelic team, Thin Man (Crispin Glover) who stalks around mysteriously and Dylan’s ex-boyfriend Seamus (Justin Theroux). Come to think of it, the story per se blurs into oblivion when you see it on the big screen. It’s the sheer opulence of action and the splendor of daring stunts, and the incredible good looks of the protagonists that floor you. Now, if you are content with the aforementioned factors, Full Throttle will give you celluloid high. But if you are expecting a cult movie that you can watch even 20 years from now with your grandchildren, well, then fat chance pal!
