    Sabina Wilson: [with a playful giggle] I think women can do anything.

    [shakes her head]

    [she giggles some more]

    Jonny Smith: Think about women fixing cars,

    [she playfully raises her eyes]

    Jonny Smith: driving a taxi,

    [she crinkles her nose]

    Jonny Smith: installing some drywall...

    Sabina Wilson: [shrugs] Why not?

    [shakes her head]

    Jonny Smith: No... Look. Trust me, a girl like you, you don't really want this.

    Sabina Wilson: A girl like me?

    Jonny Smith: Mm.

    Sabina Wilson: I mean, I want all my options available so I can decide for myself.

    Jonny Smith: Ah,

    [sums her up]

    [picks up olive]

    Jonny Smith: Come here.

    Sabina Wilson: Mm.

    [is fed olive]

    Jonny Smith: Except... you're sitting here eating my food, enjoying my view...

    Sabina Wilson: By choice.

    Jonny Smith: No, I chose you to join me.

    Sabina Wilson: [chuckles] I chose to make you notice me.

    Jonny Smith: No. Mm-hmm. That is not your choice, Sabina.

    Sabina Wilson: Mm...

    Sabina Wilson: Men, women. We all just wanna fulfill our potential,

    [she chuckles, and he fondles her calf]

    Jonny Smith: Mm?

    Sabina Wilson: It's just that I'm so good at so many things.

    Jonny Smith: Oh, yeah?

    Sabina Wilson: Yeah.

    Jonny Smith: Like what?

    Sabina Wilson: Well...

    Jonny Smith: Mm?

    Sabina Wilson: At my job. It's actually considered a huge advantage to be a woman.

    Jonny Smith: Mm?

    Sabina Wilson: Yeah. If you're beautiful, nothing else is really expected of you. And if you're not... you're pretty much rendered invisible. And in my line of work... Invisibility, low expectations... they come in very handy!

    [gets pushed off roof]

    Sabina Wilson: Oh!

    Jane Kano: [drily] That was fun.

  • Jonny Smith: [after everything she put him through] Wanna run away with me?

    Sabina Wilson: God, you are so desperate!

  • Jane Kano: We probably shouldn't get caught standing over a dead body.

    Sabina Wilson: [dirty after fight] Not dressed like this, no.

    Among the many IPs of the classic reboot, one of the more thoughtful ones is very clear that the main audience of "Charlie's Angels" is women, and all the plots are adapted for the market. Objectifying women too much? good! change! Charlie becomes a woman! Blonde monochromatic outdated aesthetic? fuck it! change! Angel keeps short hair in private! Angels can only like the opposite sex? no way! change! An angel's emotional dark line was changed to les, and an angel instructor invited the transgender!

    Who doesn't want to watch beautiful girls fighting and killing, cool movies should look like cool movies, this one is embarrassing if you can't let go of the jokes. The old version is silly and sweet, but it is straightforward and cute, and the logic is also concise. From time to time, I wonder if Ralph killer can make sense in humanitarian terms, how can the screenwriter do this :(
