Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle
2003
I'm fulling capable and willing to 'suspend my disbelief' for the sake of a movie, but this one was really asking too much. The physics of this film are just all wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong.
Wrong.
That aside, well.... There were a lot of famous people! Cameos-galore in this sequel. John Cleese. Even, the Olsen twins.
Yes, eldest brother Andrew also came back for round two, and even more entertaining-ly than last time. The part of Max, played by a poofy-haired Shia LeBeouf, made me nostalgic, yet again, for the days of 'Louis Stevens.'
Also, I'm not saying that I could do any better, but Justin Theroux should probably never attempt a feature-length film with an Irish accent ever again. Gross.
Bernie Mac, though quite entertaining as the new Bosley (fat-woman jokes aside), is no Bill Murray, and I was disappointed and confused as to why Mr. Murray had even been replaced. They probably explained that at some point... Admittedly, I watched this movie over the course of three different days. Let's just be grateful I finished it at all, ok?
Futhermore, most importantly, there was a severe lack of Luke Wilson in this flick. Not really even enough to write about, unfortunately.
To sum it up, this movie was just a bunch of star-studded, silly, over-the-top, highly-stylized, incredibly unrealistic, flashy, 'secret agent' nonsense.. And obviously, that was exactly the point.
MERE'S OFFICIAL RATING: 2 out of 5 stars
Maybe if you were to put the sandwich in your ear....Or your eyes? Or both?
