What Parents Need to Know

About Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle

Parents need to know that this movie has non-stop "action violence," meaning that it is not very graphic. A character is impaled and several characters are killed. There is a brief graphic scene of a calf birth. As in the first movie, the Angels do not use guns. Characters use some strong language and make some naughty double-entendres. Alex's father believes she is a prostitute. Female and minority characters are brave, smart, loyal, and capable.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about how (and why) people create their own families. They can talk about whether this movie is sexist and the mixed messages our society sends young women and about the enduring attraction of those messages as well. For example, while the Angels wear skimpy costumes, they are extraordinarily independent, capable, loyal, strong, honest, and highly educated.

    Fell Good Movie

    This movie was off the hizzle fo shizzle, basically meaning its great! I love the music! A bit of Older music with New music, too! Great actors, and I love the motorcross scene! Watch the regular Charlie's Angels first, then watch this one, only to understand it! :) ENJOY!

    This year is not the year for sequels...

    Same goes for Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle. This was definately rated RRRRRR! They are less of the butt-kicking machines and more of the Christina Aguilera attack! Mindless, yes; fun, yes; too much skin YES! Who is the movie for? Teenage boys...
