If the 2000 version of Charlie's Angels is a pseudo-feminist popcorn movie made by men for men, I agree, it does have its shortcomings, but the social background at that time is different from that of today. The 2000 version of Charlie's Angels is absolutely historic for women's status in Hollywood.
But this 19-year-old Charlie's Angels became a fake feminist real hater shot by women for women, which makes people feel that it is hard to watch.
The portrayal of male villains and decent females in the film is very stereotyped. What age is this, and it is actually written that all men are misogynistic, arrogant, and timid villains to support women's superiority over men. Twenty years ago, the fairy wife in the home of Taiwan was more avant-garde than it.
The most unbearable thing in the movie is, what did the male security guard in the company do wrong? He was killed by the protagonist who did his job conscientiously. He originally thought that Princess Jasmine still retained a trace of humanity. Unexpectedly, after only 2 seconds of silence, the other two protagonists gave him "It was just an accident, not your fault". Fooled past. By the way, all the "he will wake up" in the movie did not see him wake up in the end, only her, Princess Jasmine woke up, and more than half of the men who were brought down by the three protagonists in the movie were ordinary office workers. Have you ever seen 007 hurt innocent female citizens in order to complete the mission?
The first scene from the opening is full of didactic plots. After watching the whole movie, it seems that a kindergarten teacher said in front of the audience: "Everyone! Listen up! The teacher is going to teach you something new today - this is called Feminism! Men are big hooves!"
At least 1 hour of the 2-hour movie reveals the mentality of male chauvinism vaguely. At this time, someone must say "Hey, don't be so serious, after all, this is for girls" or "Women have experienced sexism for thousands of years, and now a little overcorrection is inevitable", so may I ask this Why is there such a stereotype of feminists for movies that focus on women? The three leading actors and even the supporting roles are very face-to-face. In the end, the movie feels like those pink items sold in American supermarkets—just an ordinary product that sells for twice as much in pink packaging. The euphemism is called tailor-made for women. To put it bluntly, it is still the product of a Hollywood assembly line.
By the way, the music of this movie is still good, much stronger than the plot.
