Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu are Charlie's Angels - a trio of elite private investigators who, with the latest in high-tech gadgets, martial arts techniques and a vast array of disguises, unleash their state of the art skills on land, sea and air. Their goal, to track down a kidnapped billionaire-to-be and keep his top-secret voice identification software out of lethal hands. Aided by their faithful lieutenant Bosley (Bill Murray), and under the sure hand of their suave playboy boss, notorious for his clever ways of avoiding face-to-face meetings, the girls must foil an elaborate murder-revenge plot that could destroy individual privacy and corporate security worldwide. Adventure has never been more beautiful! (Sony Pictures Home Entertainment)

Charlie’s Angels is deliberate fluff, a self-reflexively exaggerated jiggle flick with playfully objectified superficiality. Or it’s simply boisterous entertainment that takes the basic strengths of the 1970s series on which it’s based (the concept, exaggeration, outfits, insipid missions, espionage and a bunch of familiar faces) and spins them into an unbridled, exuberantly wild ride at the peak of the MTV era, where excess, absurdity and hyper-stylisation keep the pedal to the metal while logic, causality and realism are bound and gagged in the trunk. “Never send a man to do a woman’s job.”

It’s impossible to get mad at this kind of deliberately stylized bollocks. Turn your brain off, stick your hand in the popcorn or something else, put on an amusedly ironic smile and it won’t even matter that it's stupid, what matters is that Lucy Liu flips her hair and Drew Barrymore is great behind the steering wheel.
