While one is expected to suspend your disbelief when watching any movie, this atrocity named "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle" is just beyond ridiculous. Easily, this is one of the worst blockbusters ever made, and one of the most unbearable pieces of garbage released by a major Hollywood studio.
It's understandable that the core audience for this movie is almost exclusively teenagers, but the flick lowers every standard to such low levels that it becomes a joke. The producers may keep justifying this mess with the good old "it's just camp," or "it's just fun." Whatever; it doesn't fly. The movie is an insult to anyone with an IQ over 80. Namely:
With the overblown production budget of this horrendous flick, you could produce five or six half-decent movies. This movie is a disgrace, another example of the mindless trash that Hollywood keeps popping out. Avoid at all costs.
I give it a 1/10 because there's no "0" option in the rating.

- The Charlie's Angels can fly through the air, jump away from explosions every 10 minutes, and defy gravity on a constant basis for no reason at all. It's only funny the first twelve times...
- The paper-thin plot is laughable, replaced with an overwhelming amount of "Matrix-like" CGI effects displaying the girls dodging bullets in the air in slow motion. This is done so many times during the movie that it makes you hope nobody uses this effect ever again in a movie. Ever!
- Characters, all of the sudden, develop the ability to fly (Demi Moore).
- Characters, all of the sudden and without much explanation, go from being "bad: to being "good" (Thin Man), and from being "good" to being "bad" (Demi Moore, Robert Patrick).
- The jokes are lame, unfunny, and worst of all, rehashed straight off the first movie.
- John Cleese should fire his agent for getting him into this mess.
- Bernie Mac. Why, oh why?
- Did I mention the girls constantly fly away from explosions, and defy any law of physics with no apparent explanation (mind you, these Angels do not live inside the Matrix.)
