Full Throttle
We went to a screening of Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle this past weekend and much enjoyed the campiness of it all. Fuss was made over Demi "I Can't Act" Moore's comeback but one of the highlights was Bernie Mac as the new Bosley. The gap was seamless and he made for an even better sidekick to our three angels. And, you'd never think it could be done, but Cameron Diaz looked pretty gnarly with a mullet 'do.
Speaking of angels, Kelly Garrett -- aka Jaclyn Smith (my favorite angel, *swoon*) -- has a cameo along with Bruce Willis, Eve, The Olsen Twins and Pink. The Crispin Glover sub-plot was a bit of a mess, but I suppose there's always room for Crispin Glover sub-plots in every movie.
Set around Los Angeles, there's the usual round-up of L.A. spots including the Musso & Frank Grill, Hollywood & Highland, Roosevelt Hotel (with the Ambassador Hotel posing for the lobby), the Wax Museum, The Los Angeles Theater and even El Carmen on 3rd street, camouflaged as a Mexican taverna.
