ok, as i say i've just seen the second one too - DON'T WORRY!!! I'M NOT GONNA GIVE ANYTHING AWAY!!! - so, i'm gonna have a different approach to when i saw just this one.<br/><br/>this film is about 'girl-power' and taking the p***.<br/><br/>it acheives this easily. if i had voted after seeing the first 100 (!) times i'd have given it a 9 out of 10, but now i've seen the secondone i'm only giving it 7 out of 10 (which, in my eyes, is still a really great score!)<br/><br/>i'm not gonna write much else, coz i'm gonna go comment on the 2nd one.<br/><br/>the main thing i can say about this film is: dont just rent it, BUY it! coz you're gonna wanna watch it every week!!!
Charlie's detective agency is hired to recover a piece of electronic equipment to counteract an act of industrial espionage. The three foxy ladies of Charlie's detective agency are on the case getting caught up in a variety of hi-jinx that eventually puts all of them in mortal danger, and even threatens the life of their boss, the demure and debonair Charlie himself.<br/><br/>Three little girls went to the police academy, their they were assigned very strenuous activities. However, I took them away from all that. And then, I was bought up by Drew Barrymore's production company to be made into this piece o' cr*p! This has to be one of the worst blockbuster's ever made, the women perform a variety of Matrix moves that happen for absolutely no reason apart from the fact that, er, the producers wanted them in there. Cameron Diaz dances in her pants, should be sexy, but comes off as actually quite sad, kind of like a man wearing a Borat style thong, as it seems a bit desperate really, which, for a film which is supposed to be about female empowerment, is just pathetic. Bill Murray clearly wishes he'd seen more of the script before signing on the dotted line and ghosts through the movie, although to be fair to his skills, his scenes in this production are one of the only good things in it, his scene in prison and with the sumo suits is great, but he seems to be wishing that someone would find money enough to make "Royal Tenenbaums" and "Lost in Translation" in order to rescue him from films like this.<br/><br/>And for me, this is the biggest travesty of this film, that with a cast that includes Cameron Diaz, Bill Murray, Sam Rockwell (Great in "Galaxy Quest" and "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind", here ...Dismal!) and the completely underrated Tim Curry, that such an apocryphal film should be made. Tim Curry is always underused, and both Sam Rockwell and Bill Murray's careers managed to survive this disaster, but in many ways this has had a devastating impact on Cameron Diaz's career. Before this she was arguably one of the most sought after light comedy performers in Hollywood, with a string of good performances from "The Mask" through to "Soemthing about Mary" with glimpses of more depth with "The Last Supper" and "Being John Malkovich", however since these dismal outings she has largely become known as that woman that Justin Timberlake went out with and that great potential that she displayed not long ago now seems woefully underused.<br/><br/>That this is so high a score on IMDb is a travesty to justice and an indictment to the power of advertising and hype as, like the Policeman said, there really is nothing to see here! PS If my memory is correct Akiva Goldsman was the script doctor on this flick. Nuff said!
What's on screen is a hash, though it may very well be the most comprehensive catalog of male erotic fantasies in one single film.
