    Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
    filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
    Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
    Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
    SnoopyStyle Dirty cop Kate Prince (Annie Ilonzeh), cat burglar Abby Sampson (Rachael Taylor), and Gloria work for the mysterious Charlie Townsend in Miami fighting crime outside the law enforcement with the help of hacker John Bosley (Ramon Rodriguez). When Gloria is killed by a car bomb, they investigate Eve French (Minka Kelly) who turns out to be Gloria's childhood friend and a car thief.Instead of concentrating on creating compelling characters, this show is more interested in a dark convoluted Miami Vice. The girls are hot but the characters lack interest. Eve is suppose to be a car thief. It's the perfect opportunity to start the show with a fun car chase. The show needs to start with her personality and her story before getting recruited by Charlie. Minka Kelly's acting is still in question. I don't recall if she even drives in the show. The girls start without any rooting interest and fail to improve. They are empty models with bravado. It's action without any fun. There is no joy here. It was canceled after four episodes with only eight overall. The franchise started as jiggle TV, transformed into irreverent action movies, and stalled into unengaging action TV.
    generationofswine Have you seen it? No? There is likely a very good reason for that...it stinks.Like nearly ALL the endless remakes and reboots that have been plaguing movie goers for the past decade or so....all this is, is a heartless version of the original.It has no heart.It has no soul.It is a retelling of a film that we all love and cherish...and it adds nothing to the story. It improves nothing but the special effects--which held up very well over time--and in some cases belittles the fans of the original...particularly in the fact that they remade the movie at all, without adding anything clever to it.Like so many other remakes it is a hallow shell of the original.
    simon-trek I'm aware that the new Charlie's Angels TV series has received a lot of negative reviews and I've met several people who don't like it. But I like the new Charlie's Angels TV series, in fact I think it is action packed and suspenseful. I like the fact the Bosley is a young man instead of a middle-aged man like he was in the original TV series. Rachel Taylor, Minka Kelly and Annie Ilonzeh are all very good an the Angels. I also like the fact that all three of these women have a criminal past and that they have been given a chance at redemption by working for Charlie as private detectives. Each episode I've watched has been quite suspenseful and action packed. I especially liked the episode "Angels in Chains" which is based on an iconic episode of the same name from the first season of the original series. For those of you who haven't watched the original Charlie's Angels TV series I'll explain. In the original series episode of "Angels in Chains" the Angels get themselves into a women's prison in the country to investigate the death of an inmate. There they discover that the nearby small town sheriff along with the prison warden are having young women arrested and imprisoned on trumped-up violations. The women are enslaved until they become prostitutes in exchange for early release. In the new Charlie's Angels episode "Angels in Chains" the Angels go to Cuba to investigate the disappearance of a young female American tourist. So the Angels pose as pose as unsuspecting American tourists. Upon their arrival at the Cuban Hotel the Angels are framed of drug possession and thrown into a women's prison, where their key victim, Tess, is also incarcerated. The Angels learn that a corrupt American capitalist is working with the prison warden and is having young female American tourists imprisoned and then used as prostitutes as a part of his business deals. Bosley joins forces with his ex-girlfriend, CIA operative Samantha Masters, to free the Angels and the other wrongfully imprisoned women. So I think the "Angels in Chains" episode is a great homage to the original series episode. So once again I like the new Charlie's Angels TV series and I will continue to watch every episode of it and recommend this show to people.
    franklinlapaz I have to say this show kicks ass and it reminds me so much about what Miami is. It does have a little twist of CSI: Miami kick to it but other than that it kept me watching the show. The girls are hot, fresh, and dangerous! I hope there's a second season in the works and I would like to work on this show! The performance is somewhat charm, sexy, and smart. Rachel Taylor is a fun, quirky, blonde, smart woman, and I hope they keep her. I like Minka Kelly because she's a tough woman. And don't forget Annie, who's good at solving problems in a sexy mode. All these angels are badass and this show is too much fun to watch. I love the shots of Miami because it reminds me a little piece of home. I love the beauty of this movie and how everyone portrays the lifestyle of Miami. This show shouldn't deserve a 4.5 but at least a 7.0 or higher. I give it a 10 because it's been awhile since I watched a good action TV series since CSI: Miami. Well, CSI: Miami kind of died on me, lol, so this show really kicks ass. The story line is a 8.0 out of 10 and it can improve a lot better down the long run but the girls are 10 out of 10.
