Charlie’s Angels
Who would have thought that Jean-Luc Picard, Effie Trinket, & Bella Swan would team up to rescue Princess Jasmine & prevent a deadly device from falling into the wrong hands.
Based off of a TV series (1976-81) & 2 movies (2000 & 2003), the Townsend Agency has expanded internationally. John Bosley (Patrick Stewart) is retiring. Apparently, Bosley is more of a job title than an actual name as both Elizabeth Banks & Djimon Hounsou are referred to as Bosley & they aren’t the only two. Angels Sabina (Kristen Stewart) & Jane (Ella Balinska) are sent in to protect a systems engineer/whistle blower Elena (Naomi Scott) & prevent a sustainable energy device from being weaponized. Balinska plays the tall, dark, & deadly one. Kristen Stewart provides the comic relief; a refreshing change from her typically stiff performances. Producer/writer/director Banks plays a former angel who has been promoted to Bosley status. Scott starts out as the damsel in distress but manages to step it up in the heat of the battle. It’s a fun, entertaining action/comedy featuring girl power & sisterhood with high energy thrills, glamorous costumes, & a nod to angels past. Look for some surprise cameos during the roll of credits.
Alien gives it 3 “Calisto” stars out of 4.
