————————————Pros————————————— Movie: Can’t go wrong with the big timer cast. Watched it at the theater and couldn’t believe I was listening to the Prodigy on a mainstream movie which was my highlight moment. Picture: Always a great picture on an OLED, 4k upscale. ————————————Cons———————————— Audio: Dialog was on the low level despite played on an Oppo with a 11.2 (7.2.4). Digital Copy: No Slipcover: No

I’ll be honest when I first saw the trailer for this I was instantly “Hard Pass”. Then a friend told me to see it. I did and boy am I glad I did. It’s a great homage to Charlie’s Angels. Filled with Easter eggs and cameos and such for the long time fan of the tv show and previous movies. This film in particular though is loaded with great action, cool backstories for the main three characters. Very mission impossible like moments and two major twists that you won’t see coming. I would recommend to anyone who enjoys and action and comedy.

Having grown up in the 1970s, I avidly followed a lot of cop/crime drama shows of the era. Most of these shows were usually top-billed by male or macho actors. Thus, having a detective series led by a trio of gorgeous ladies was truly eye candy for us high school boys. Unfortunately, "Charlie's Angels" only lasted for five seasons. A number of reasons were cited for the show's cancellation, among which were the cast changes and the declining quality of stories/scripts. Almost 30 years later, a feature film version was made. This movie was not really a remake or re-boot, as the unseen wealthy employer Charles "Charlie" Townsend was still voiced by the late John Forsythe. The production team, led by co-star Drew Barrymore, decided to go more for action-comedy this time around with a lot of sight gags and slapstick humor. While I wouldn't spend top dollar for a copy of this movie, I decided to get one as Best Buy sold Blu-Ray copies of it for only $3.99.

Everything Sony has been pumping out on 4K UHD Blu-ray is simply outstanding, and Charlie's Angels is no exception. We get a beautiful amount of film grain and excellent colors, along with a superb Dolby ATMOS audio mix that contains crystal clear dialogue and an amazing amount of bass and surround sound. This is like having a 35mm reel on a disc - simply extraordinary quality. I hope Sony also releases the sequel (Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle) later on on 4K Blu-ray. This is an awesome release, and definitely worth picking up if you're a fan.

Package arrived in a timely manner and undamaged great movie

I was nervous about picking this one up, but for $10 on Black Friday sale I could not resist. Yes the movie is very corny as well as the action, but make no mistake about it the Angels never looked and sounded so good. It came with a slipcover and digital copy within. Very satisfied with this...sort of an oldie, but guilty pleasure.

Charlie's Angels are a crime-fighting trio, masters of disguise, espionage and martial arts. When a devious mastermind embroils them in a plot to destroy individual privacy, the Angels are on the spot with their brains, brawn and high-tech toys. Aided by their loyal sidekick Bosley, the girls are about to bring down the bad guys when a terrible secret is revealed that makes the Angels a target of assassination.

The Chad was great and so were those angels! This is the best the film has ever looked. I’ve never owned the movie until now but I recall renting it several times back in the day when Blockbuster Video was a thing. I even remember seeing it opening weekend back in 1999. It’s fun, light and sugary sweet! A good time
