: Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle

The first film surprised many in how it was both a tribute to the TV series but established its own frantic identity as well. With the sequel you know exactly what you’re getting and the film delivers. It’s basically a 90-minute music video. It never lets up, is full of clever asides and in-jokes, and is just a blast. Everyone, from the writer to the director to the cast are obviously having a ball, and that shows. It’s contagious. You want to join the cast and dance and have fun as well. There’s nothing profound here — you’re an idiot if you’re expecting anything remotely like depth — but there hasn’t been such a fun movie in years. Two thumbs way up!
