They’re beautiful, they kick ass and they work for Charlie. On June 27, 2003, America’s greatest secret weapon will be unleashed again as Natalie Cook (Cameron Diaz), Dylan Sanders (Drew Barrymore) and Alex Munday (Lucy Liu) reunite for a challenging new adventure in Charlie’s Angels®: Full Throttle, a sequel to the blockbuster action comedy, directed by McG and inspired by the phenomenally popular television series. The Angels prepare to strike without warning as they go undercover to retrieve two missing silver bands. These are no ordinary rings. They contain valuable encrypted information that reveals the new identities of every person in the Federal Witness Protection Program. When witnesses start turning up dead, only the Angels, using their expertise as masters of disguise, espionage and martial arts, can stop the perpetrator, a mysterious ‘fallen’ Angel (Demi Moore). Aided by their trusty colleague, Jimmy Bosley (Bernie Mac), the Angels’ adventure begins at a remote Mongolian outpost and ends only after Dylan (Barrymore) is forced to face a dark secret from her past -- a secret that puts the lives of her two best friends in danger.

How could you dislike a film that takes itself so lightly?

The special effects sequences, silly jokes, tantalizing outfits and overbearing soundtrack seem painfully forced and fake. Or maybe a better word is shallow. This film, for whatever it achieves, is painfully shallow.

It's like a third-rate Austin Powers picture cut to the whacking, attention-deficit-disorder tempo of Moulin Rouge.

Well, at least the title is apt -- this aggravatingly incoherent series of subpar music videos did make me want to see someone fully throttled.

Once again, the tone is that of a giggly, sweetly knowing, megabucks slumber party.

To paraphrase Steven Soderberg, if having fun on a set was an indication of how good the movie will be then Cannonball Run would be the greatest movie ever made.

Stupid stunts that defy rational belief, wasted casting that infuriates and annoys, and more skin than any woman with a brain, agent and reputation should display on screen.

[A]s with the first film, it’s a complete goof, meant to be enjoyed with a large popcorn and lots of air conditioning.

Plays more like a video game -- with a prepubescent boy, suffering from Twinkie syndrome, at the controls.

Cameron, Lucy, and Drew are back as the Angels, with Bernie Mac and Demi Moore spicing it up. You’ll clap along even as you realize how plain dumb it all is.

A protracted, anti-feminist wet t-shirt display, in search of characters, plot and intelligence.

A lot less fun than 2000's Charlie's Angels, this sequel made for the ADD generation jumps from one thing to the next like a mongoose on crack, and yet comes up with nothing.

That Full Throttle is an exuberant, eye-catching and infectious film despite a script that probably only exists in theory proves that director McG is a damn McGenius.

A wonderful pastiche of seventies and eighties pop culture, Full Throttle is a kitschy joyride complete with wonderful cameos, joyous dance numbers and acrobatic ***-kicking.

Runs out of juice the faster it tries to reach a conclusion. Nice outfits, though.
