Charlie’s Angels isn’t the smartest movie, but it is a lively romp that delivers exactly what it promises.

The film is the equivalent of the 'dumb blonde' of action movies. No plot? No problem. Smile pretty now.

This is nothing but trailer moments. Ex-pop video director McG couldn't organise a pillow fight in a bedding factory.

Charlie's Angels is like a Hong Kong flick but without the bogus spirituality and excruciating schlock-pop ballads.

Charlie's Angels never slows down, and even when it's not delivering the thrills or a fun fight scene, it's being just plain funny.

A virtual big-budget explosion? Yes. A spectacle of three great actresses making fools of themselves? Sure. MTV-worthy martial arts monages that shamelessly rip off The Matrix? Yessireebob. But a movie? No. Not for an instant.

For a movie that gets its inspiration from one of the cheesiest television shows of the extra-cheesy 1970s, Charlie's Angels is surprisingly cool.

This is the enjoyably dumb action movie that Mission Impossible could (and should) have been.

Although the action movie is the last bastion of the male star, Charlie’s Angels should change all that.

This wants to spoof macho action movies.... But lacking a coherent script to link the jokes, these Angels are left without a prayer.

Diaz, Barrymore and Liu obviously relish each costume change and, unsurprisingly, they look sensational regardless of what they're wearing -- or not wearing, as the case may be.

A sassy, brassy, titillating bundle of joy, Charlie's Angels is as close to pure, unrepentant fun as any movie in years.

Es simplista y hasta boba. ¿Pero quién rayos se fija en el guión cuando Cameron Diaz desborda encanto(s) en la pantalla?
