Like a man overcoming his shortcomings by buying Corvette, Full Throttle uses near nudity, explosions, and tons of fight sequences to overcompensate for its inadequacies.

Reviews for Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle
Throwing technical finesse at the emptiest vision conceivable, director McG ups the ante on how closely a movie can approach tween-music flavourlessness.
06/29/03
...one of the most mindlessly enjoyable movies to crop up so far this summer.
06/29/03
I really enjoyed Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle. Oh, who am I kidding, my libido LOOOOOOOOVED this movie.
06/29/03
McG and company aren't making art here, they're doing a piece purely serving as escapist entertainment...
06/29/03
A less cohesive action-comedy than its predecessor, Full Throttle is instead a freewheeling collection of random action sequences strung together with little or no discernible rhyme or reason.
06/29/03
Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle tries to be bigger and better than the first Charlie's Angels. It achieves the bigger, but the better is sorely lacking.
06/29/03
...merely an act of sheer overkill...Full Throttle is just an excuse to deliver another random hyperactive fleshy fable and pass it off as a mainstream mega-snack.
06/28/03
Sorry, Charlie: Full Throttle stalls out in the clutch.
06/28/03
So ratcheted up with flashy, effects-laden set-pieces and dumbed down to mere jokiness and pop references that Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle is barely a movie in the traditional sense.
06/28/03
The sequel ... is just more of the same, and the novelty has worn off. Once you've gone over the top, the only place to go is down the other side.
06/28/03
Mindless action mixed with soft-core titillation, geared to the short attention span.
06/28/03
Filled with a mindless plot, Matrix-like stunts and enough girl power that improves on the first film.
06/28/03
In Full Throttle, returning director McG works much harder, for only about half the effect.
06/28/03
Within the limits of Hollywood sterility, CHARLIE'S ANGELS 2: FULL THROTTLE is a fetishist's dream.
06/27/03
...a stagnant collage of scenes that assault the eyes, ears and mind without actually being very entertaining in the process.
06/27/03
This is a movie with less depth than a Maxim pictorial, but it’s fun.
06/27/03
You’ll probably need to load up on caffeine and sour patch kids if you want to keep up with the pace of this film.
06/27/03
Unlike many of Hollywood’s other recent action movies, McG seems to know how to handle his. He gives us a sense of clarity and speed, and only uses CGI at the edges of the frame instead of dead center where it gives itself away (see The Hulk).
06/27/03
"Lots of people would pay to see Cameron Diaz take a crap on a see-through toilet. Why not?!?!"
