Action. Adventure. Comedy. Thriller They’re beautiful, they’re brilliant and they work for Charlie. This is a sexy, high-octane update of the popular hit show, Natalie (Diaz), Dylan (Barrymore) and Alex (Liu), alongside faithful lieutenant Bosley (Murray), must foil an elaborate murder-revenge plot that could not only destroy individual privacy and corporate security worldwide, but spell the end of Charlie and his Angels.

	Author	Review
United States	Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"Action without mind, purpose, humor, excitement or entertainment (...) 'Charlie's Angels' is like the trailer for a video game movie, lacking only the video game, and the movie (…) Rating: ½ (out of 4)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Caroline Westbrook Empire	"The end result is muddled, to say the least; visually stylish, sporadically entertaining, yet all-too-frequently painful (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Todd McCarthy Variety	"This entertaining confection possesses the substance of the TV show, the pacing of a Hong Kong actioner and the production values of a James Bond thriller"	POS
United States	A. O. Scott The New York Times	"It never pretends that it's anything more than trashy, cheesy fun. But even trash (...) should at least be well made. Sure, it's easy on the eyes, but would a little brains be too much to ask?"	NEU
United States	Desson Thomson The Washington Post	"The gals are fab. And so's the movie (...) Frankly, the experience is pretty refreshing."	POS
United States	Nathan Rabin AV Club	"Alternating between expository dialogue (...) and heavy-handed camp at its most insultingly obvious (...) 'Angels' feels both threadbare and overstuffed."	NEG
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"Only a churl would not feel his heart leap like a salmon at the sight of Cameron Diaz, Lucy Liu and Drew Barrymore (...) in such a lavish range of fantastic locations, outfits and hairpieces."	POS
United Kingdom	Nev Pierce BBC	"The jokes are limp (snigger) - either smutty or plain stupid (...) So empty that even the makers can't remember what happened five seconds ago (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
