Charlie's Angels

I'll be the first to say I watched (still do, when there are reruns) this private investigation caper, where those Angels certainly know how to get the bad guys and look so fabulous doing so!

Today's Angels, Natalie (Cameron Diaz) Dylan (Drew Barrymore) and Alex (Lucy Liu) are still beautiful, fashionable, intelligent, and able to smooth talk their sweet words into the eyes of hungry men, as they handle difficult and dangerous situations. Those angels in the past never had to do what these winged doll-faced sweeties have to do!

The Angel's have been hired by Vivian Wood (Kelly Lynch) president of Erik Knox's (Sam Rockwell) company. Their assignment is to find out who kidnapped Eric Knox, the founder and engineer who developed a voice activated software program.

There are a couple of suspects the Angels needs to consider in this hi-tech crime dilemma, including Roger Corwin (Tim Curry) who owns the largest communications satellite company called Red Star Systems, and wanted to buy Knox's company, and the creepy thin man (Crispin Glover), the sleaze bag whose picture was on the surveillance camera as one of the kidnappers.

Of course the Angels have Bosley (Bill Murray) their right hand man to help assist in any and all ways possible. Don't fret over the long hours and stress that the Angels have to put themselves in, for there is always room to squeeze in a romance from time to time. When Dylan needs some romance she looks to Chad (Tom Green) who is the anchor of her affections from time to time. Then there's Alex who seems to have a pretty good relationship with Jason (Matt LeBlanc) although he does think she's a bikini waxer. Then there's Natalie, who has found a perfect match in Pete the bartender (Luke Wilson), who she met while undercover. Both are multi talented in speaking and understanding each others lingo quite well, so well, it's scary but in a good way.

Now the Angels must work fast and cleverly in order to solve this crime. They think they have it figured out, but somebody has set a trap for them and is looking to rid the Angels of their halos and their boss... Charlie!

The cast was great! I'm a big fan of Drew Barrymore, and think Cameron Diaz is so together and shows a tremendous amount of talent and personality. Bill Murray is a genius, and so wonderful to watch, and then there is Luke Wilson who makes me weak in the knees and whose charm and talent is becoming clearer and more desired. Crispin Glover is a monster of freakish talent and he's so cool, I think he's astonishing and brilliant!

From Aerosmith to Heart, and so much in between. It's an explosive amount of awesome music that shouts excitement! Just wait until you catch the scene when Natalie and Pete have tickets to get into the one and only "Soul Train"

Charlie's Angels is a fun, fresh, and humorous movie. It's colorful, fast, hip, and rocks with energy. It's also silly and that is what makes it work. Notto be taken too seriously, just kick back and enjoy it!
