Charlies Angels set out to be a fresh reboot of the tv show and past movies but with a more feminist twist to it. Directed by (and starring) Elizabeth Banks, this film is filed with energy and is the third film in the series and a continuation of the 1970s tv show.

The three main performances from Kristen Stewart, Naomi Scott and Ella Balinska are fun filled and gives the film a fresh feel to it. Three young women to lead the film was a wise choice in my opinion as it means that they are relatable in today’s world.

However, I felt as if Elizabeth Banks gave herself a bit more screen time than needed due to the fact that she was directing. Despite this, I thought she gave an incredible performance as Bosley.

The twist of who the villain actually was one that I didn’t see coming and Banks played her part well as she had me fooled that she was the villain.

I also liked the soundtrack to the film. It was modern and funky. It also bellowed strong female lyrics which tied in extremely well with the film.

I’m not sure if this film will amount to anything major like a sequel or expansion of a franchise but we will have to see.

Overall I enjoyed it as a light film to watch and that entertains.

Rating- 7/10
