Every Kristen Stewart scene in this trailer vibes the same energy as this:

Where the hell is Lupita Nyong'O? Banks is playing Bosley and also directing? fucking weird. She mocapped Patrick Stewart She dropped out in early stages and was replaced by a new girl, whose name I don't know and am too lazy to look up.

Ok, let me see if I have this "straight" (pun intended) - the character of Bosley is the hottest one in a Milf genius plot twist (Banks?) - ok, interesting choice I'm totally down with it unless that's offensive, then I'm not........... the Angels themselves are kind of gross and basic except Stewart in a wig, which she promptly takes off revealing herself to be a 13 year old boy. Which makes you wonder when did she stop being sexy because in Adventureland she was really sexy and snarky enough to laugh at this stuff.
Meanwhile the Angels beat up the men who would want to have sex with them because this film is a straight male fantasy which straight male viewers will hate unless they want to get beaten up by girls or they look like Sam Claflin which of course wasn't even the point of the original show because the Angels liked average guys because Aaron Spelling a genius btw who understood sex, selling it and that David Doyle wasn't hotter than Jaclyn Smith .......and the 70s TV show looks like King Lear in comparison which Patrick Stewart appearing here is clearly meant to evoke.
Meanwhile the new single from "Ariana Grande/Miley Cyrus/Lana Del Rey" and possibly the young holograms of Olivia Newton John AND Alanis Morissette who are still alive but ew, aging........and which does not have a title but may be called "Erectile Dysfunction (Leave Your Balls In The Lobby) - Dance Re-mix".

Meh, looks cheesy AF. I think I'll pass. And Elizabeth Banks needs to stick to acting. She can't direct for shit.

Might be fun? Maybe?
K-Stew is obviously already the best part

Djimon Hounsou as Bosley. Patrick Stewart as Bosley. Elizabeth Banks as Bosley. What's going on here??

Although I never got around to seeing all of the sequel to that one because it looked so bad even to me. This looks about on par as the sequel or even worse though. So yes definitely wrong kind of cheesy here for me. None of the jokes landed for me, and nothing about the action stands out at all. Also the song sounds just awful which is disappointing because with the 3 who collaborated on it, I expected it to be an overplayed earworm that I wouldn't be able to escape from.

The previous Angels movies were pretty stupid, but they cast comedic charisma monsters like Diaz, Barrymore and Lucy Lui, and they alone sold it. Scott and the other Angel (that isn't K-Stew) look practically the same. K-Stew isn't really a charisma monster. This is not her thing and it seems forced. They missed a huge trick not casting Lupita N'yongo. Not only is she a better actress than anyone in this cast (I don't care how many overpraised indie performances K-Stew knocks out, she hasn't done anything the level of US) , but on a visual level alone, she's make this trio more interesting to look at.

I having Naomi Scott be a client first, it looks like, and then an angel is supposed to be a new take on the material. I guess that could have been interesting, but yes the way it's edited together in some spots during that set-up, I confused Naomi Scott with Ella Balinska too. Suddenly McG looks like a genius. lol, he really does. Say what you will about the 2000 version, with it's girl power message with the T&A, but at least it looked entertaining. Plus, as pupdurcs already mentioned Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, and even Lucy Lui were comedic charisma monsters and Diaz and Barrymore were probably at their peak back then too.

I never thought I could cringe for three solid minutes before, but I did.
As others have noted, Charlie's Angels is all about the casting. The Barrymore/Diaz/Lui movie and the original group on the TV show had star power. Not the case here except for Kirsten Stewart a little bit.

The Barrymore movies are gold, both the first one and the sequel. The once-in-a-lifetime kind of "so bad it's good" movie. I don't think anyone will ever have the guts to do something that ridiculous again.

I think this looks bland as hell but Kristen Stewart looks good and like she’s having fun with the role.

The cast is fine, but it looks a bit like a throwaway film TBH. Not super impressed with what footage we've seen.

Talking about overpraised performances and then mentioning Lupita in the very next sentence? LOL Stewart absolutely kills it in this film, and the trio were better imo. I legitimately had tears streaming down my face because I was laughing so hard. I will be bumping this thread to laugh at all these bad takes when A) it does better than the ridiculously campy 2003 installment with critics and B) slays the box office.

I will be bumping this thread to laugh at all these bad takes when A) it does better than the ridiculously campy 2003 installment with critics and B) slays the box office. Let's not go there with Lupita. I've made an effort to let bygones be bygones and leave certain things in the past and move forward and give people chances to show they've changed (often to my regret), but your particular history regarding actresses of color doesn't leave you in the best position to be overly judgemental here. I think she's a gifted, stage trained actress with an expansive range who has made the most of limited opportunities and I think Stewart is overrated and limited in range. Whether Stewart ends up being decent in this movie is not something that will alter my thoughts on their relative skill-set or talent level. Let's leave it at that. As for this film, I don't really give a damn if it makes 1 dollar or 1 trillion dollars. To me, based on the trailer alone, it looks like deep fried ass. But if you've seen it and enjoyed it, good for you.
