I have read all three of the old versions carefully before, and I still bought the DVD at that time. The new film comes out naturally. In terms of thrills, the new version is not even as good as the old version, the fighting scenes are also a lot weaker, and the plot design is not as rich as the original. But it's not useless. Any new thing, as long as it's not too rubbish, will always have its bright spots.
The three heroines are all very good. One word "beautiful" is better than Diaz and Liu Yuling's image (personal opinion, to tell the truth). The two beauties who were in charge of the fight also fought very hard, but they did not fight thoroughly enough, which may be limited by their own acting skills and level. In addition, it is an action movie, with no real foundation, powerful martial arts, and strong special effects support. There is always one. A sense of powerlessness, the fist goes out without power, and the non-fighting action relies on editing.
Here I will also talk about the highlights of this film. Although the plot is old and simple, it is compact and smooth. The three main characters have distinct personalities and high recognizability, and are also in line with their original occupation and identity settings, which is conducive to showing different motivations and behaviors in subsequent plots.
The music is better than the plot itself, probably to make up for the monotony and inadequacy of the plot and the lack of exciting scenes. If you turn off the music and just watch the silent pictures, the atmosphere of the scene will be dimmed a lot, and many action scenes are not like fighting, but more like dancing.
Western American actresses have a good habit of acting, no matter how high or low their acting skills are, at least their expressions are rich and not stiff. Compared with many domestic female stars, especially some streaming stars, they are really much stronger.
The visibility of the new "Charlie's Angels" is mainly beauties, so they constantly change their clothes and show the style of beauty. But there are too many unsurpassed classics in Hollywood heroine films, such as "Tomb Raider" series, "Underworld", "Resident Evil" and so on. It is a disadvantage for the director to choose a new film for this film. In addition, she is a female director, so she may have many weaknesses, such as her ability to capture male audiences.
