Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle is a 2003 American action comedy film. It is the sequel to 2000's Charlie's Angels. It opened in the United States on June 27, 2003, and was number one at the box office for that weekend and made a worldwide total of $259.2 million.

The cast again includes Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu. It also features Demi Moore and, replacing Bill Murray in the role of Bosley, Bernie Mac.


I liked it. It's not as good as the original, but it's fun in a cheesy kind of way.

It's a much better film on DVD than it was in theaters. In theaters it was loud and obnoxious and made me want to leave. On DVD though, it had a similar feel to the original although nowhere near as good. Bernie Mac doesn't even come close to matching Bill Murray as Bosley.

Hehe... I remember when this was released I loved it. Oh, how crazy I was.

I think I'd give it a B-/C+ now.

Not afraid to say it's one of the worst movies of all-time.

The only time I voluntarily walked out the theater. Terrible and obnoxious. The only F I've given out.

McG caught the wave this time and rode it all the way in. It's a cinematic thrill ride from beginning to end. You get sexy Angels you can actually care about, amped up with the de--luxe suite of movie trickery, and topped with bizarro-land cameos. This one was like an MTV dream I once had on Schnapps with Gatorade chasers. This one's the real deal - it's an ideal summer movie...

5 out of 5.

What a huge letdown after the first movie. This one goes so over-the-top that it actually hurts it eventually. There is little sense of cheesy fun that was present in the first movie. The makers tried to make it even more ridiculous with even more unrealistic over-the-top action and an even more senseless plot, but they went too far with this one. Like many have said, it ended up being rather obnoxious, not too entertaining and too stupid for its own good. John Cleese's appearance as well as the Liu/Diza/Barrymore trio that was still having a lot of fun partially saved it from being one of the worst films ever, but it is still pretty bad and not as rewatchable as the first movie, by far.

Strong absense of Bill Murray looses some of the shine, and it is so over the top at times, its just rediculous.

If someone hadn't already made a thread for Empire Records today, I would just come out and call this the worst movie ever made.

I'll wager McG is never allowed to make a movie again. In a world where Shawn Levys, Adam Shankmans and Tim Storys are cranking out one flick a year, that's no easy feat.

I can't imagine anyone watching this and being filled with anything but hatred and bile. I just can't.

Meh.

Unlike the first movie, this is mostly kind of just a shiny, pretty glob of goo. None of it makes sense and it's all rather ridiculous. Not awful, just lacking in anything resembling creativity. C

A-

An unpopular opinion to be sure, But this was the most fun i think I've ever had in a theater. It was funny, lighthearted and exciting.

The first movie I seriously didn't like, This one I have a lot of time for. Lucy Liu was great, I think the three leads had a great chemistry together and it was all very tounge in cheek, and I liked that.

It was okay.

P!nk's cameo and theme song were by far the best things about it. :shades:

Otherway around for me. I love the first. Not that this is bad - I'll always defend them. They are seriously fun. One of the best of 2003, imo. I'm kinda sad they aren't making more.

God, I'm a hypocrite. I'm supposed to be championing for independent/foreign film in place of commercial pictures and shit entertainment, no?

This movie is just too much fun. :(

Pretty bad flick. Not that the original was a masterpiece or anything, but at least it was fun, and it had Bill Murray. This one has neither. All style and no substance, and the style is more annoying than appealing.

A great film to turn the sound off for and fast forward through.

I could find fun entertainment in the first film. It was a fun watch.

The second film is absolutely dreadful though. People arguing that we should just see it for the entertainment value are wrong, in my opinion. The second film is remarkably stupid and annoying, and I can't get into it when it's just beyond ridiculous. It's atrocious. I mean, the first had some sense of plot and true entertainment value. The second one is all nonsensical, ridiculous, stupid, annoying, has no direction, and even the action was just so stupid and over-stylized. And the comedy present in the first is gone, pretty much completely.

F (One of only two F's I have ever given out)

PEACE, Mike.

I haven't even seen the first movie, but I can still recognize this as pretty damn bad. In my bottom 50.

By the way Mike, what's your other F?
