- So with the news that Charlie's Angels has bombed at the box office, I figured it would be a good time to take a look at the movie and try to figure out why. Grab your drinks, and join me as I explore the anatomy of this failure.

The Critical Drinker they lost me at....well everything but mainly Kristen Stewart. I miss Lucy Liu and no one got punched in the face better than Drew Barrymore.
THIS MOVIE DID NOT HAVE THE SONG THE CHARLIE ANGEL SONG
That this Movie has Patrick Stewart agreeing to appear in it after having read the script make me think the depths of his own self-loathing must be deeper than the Marianas trench. I'll need to borrow Seaquest DSV to find his common sense to why he would agree to belittle himself in such a way (i.e. doing a Jim Phelps) I am now ever more worried that Picard is going to be terrible than I already was (I knew it would be terrible) But I was hoping there might be some entertainment in it that didn't involve Jeri Ryan.
Thoughts on COPPA?
The Critical Drinker praise be to the Critical Drinker his liver died for Hollywood’s sins
Disregarding the "they made all men weak": if your villain is weak, so is your hero. Or heroine. You need a strong villain to show how badass your hero is.
so technically they're all weak
That's way too involved for these sad sjw minds to comprehend. Remember, to them, the world doesn't work based in facts; It works based on the current emotional outrage of a virtue signalling small popular minority...
No! Man bad! Woman strong!
@@kaufmanat1 i don't know where you are from, but it's been a while since facts were important in the grand global discourse - be it feminists, incels, antivaxxers, republicans, or any other vocal group of people.
@@ziglaus was there a time when facts were important to vocal activists?
I never realized that _not_ seeing a movie could be this much fun!
It's even better to just let the drinker watch this garbage and then mansplain it to the rest of us....15 mins of entertainment versus 1.5 -2 hours of painful watching of pure garbage ....
I have been Not Seeing Movies for a while, and it's way better than actually Going to Movies!
I'm sure glad I anti supported this shit. By so many people not going to see it hopefully the large hit to their pocket makes them take a real hard look at the crapfest they've been turning out.
@@the1onlyteagro Nah! It'll be fine.
Yeah, I totally enjoyed seeing the name on the theater and all of the promotions, and walking right by.
Why does the feminist fantasy of the perfect woman, mimic to the "T", the stereotype of the alpha male...the same stereotype that they're always complaining is "toxic"?
Penis envy.
Good question.
Because "everything" is *men's* faults...
When a wahmen does it, it's okay... by definition.
👍
Because it's there turn, don't ya know.
Just hope I'm still alive to see the cultural backlash to the current state of affairs.
Till then, let the shitshow roll on. 😁😁😁
She did an interview 8 yrs ago on Conan where Kristen says she is tired of crappy girl power movies, now she stars in one.
Hey 20 bucks is 20 bucks lol
She's always on drugs im surprised that's all she said!
And now she's starring in another one about lesbians.
Well, ive been saying fuck this job, and i still work there.
Opinions don't pay the bills.
Women: "We don't need no man"
Also Women: "Charlie's Angel's failed because men didn't go see it". (Scratching my head)
Kevin shots fired
LOL
Exactly what i was thinking.
Right?
Alternatively...
Women: **didn't see it**
Elizabeth Banks: **surprised Pikachu face**
"Liz, since you apparently don't understand your own industry, the Drinker's gonna mansplain this one for ya." Best line i've heard all week.
Not only is no one surprised this bombed, I doubt anyone cares.
I care cause it sets a precedent. So movies like StarWars will make money regardless of how bad they are and encourage people to keep turning franchises into trash.
Maybe woke journos care, but only because they get paid for it. For the time being.
I care very much that it should fail thank you.
Lucius Fawkes Probably a lot more. Hollywood are so self absorbed with their narrative that they’re probably oblivious.
I didn't even know it existed until it was announced it flopped
“The First World War wrapped up faster than this thing.”
Yes
And costs less, both financially and spiritually.
Painkiller Jones Yeah no not even close finance wise bud
And it did hurt less
The movie was a bonus prize associated with her (banks) doing Pitch Perfect 2 & 3. It took years to get into production because nobody really wanted to do it and they kept thinking they could find something that would stop her (Banks) from actually making it. They made the budget as low as they could (~$50m) to try and convince her not to do it. But she was hell-bent on doing a Charlie's Angels movie.
Jim Tuner I see what you did there
The worst thing a movie can do is to treat the audience with DISRESPECT.
And if it's a sequel, prequel, remake or reboot, the SECOND worst thing it can do is treat the original source material with disrespect (I'm lookin' at you, repugnant 2014 'Annie' reboot; I bet the Drinker could absolutely fricassee that one if he so chose).
Those feminist filmmakers should take a lesson from Terminator or Alien movies. Ripley and Connor are the true example of badass action characters that don't have to scream "Women are better than men" every screen.
Hell yeah
I think Hit-Girl was the best representation of feminism. Mindy doesn’t CARE what people think of her. She tried doing the makeup and the dating and the dances and all of it was thrown back in her face. When her dad was killed, she didn’t cry. She didn’t complain. She got PISSED and went and killed the men who took her only family left. And guess what?! An ADULT MAN punches her! He CHOKES her! And not ONCE does Mindy cry or try to use her gender or age as a handicap. She bit him, stabbed him where she could reach, and used her appearance to an advantage even. And this was 2009/2010/2011.
Even Sidney Prescott from SCREAM. She was a 17 year old girl who’d seen her mom cut up. The first time Ghostface tried to kill her, she dodged and even kicked him in the leg when being thrown. And she only gets tougher and tougher with each sequel. By Scream 4 she asks Ghostface to come after her and minutes later kicks him square in the jaw.
@@Blast2224 Don't forget The Bride (Not spoiling her real name, in case you haven't seen it) from the 'Kill Bill' movies.
No, they won’t learn! They will want to push it even more.
Seeing her throw those elbows makes me cringe every damn time.
It's almost like she's trying to wash the semen she just ejaculated on that man's face off like a windshield wiper on a sports car. smh
The weird thing is, it's like she's rubbing his face with her forearm

I read this comment and thought, "Hm, I mean, was it that bad?" Watches her their the elbows again. "Ohh my god that's f*cking atrocious."
The last 2 minutes of this video is the most concise and straight to the point breakdown, judge and jury for Hollywood that I've seen in any (Drinker) video, and Drinker has produced many quality takedowns. Chapeau, my sharp tongued friend.
The movies are woke, but the profits are asleep
Plot Twist the movie is just as sleep. Good joke tho
brilliant
The profits went to Red Dead 2 instead. Something actually worth its value.
Wealthy elite donors with hollywood ties: Plenty more money where that came from...
Well played.😂😂
Universal Theory of Kristen Stewart:
If she's in a low-budget indie flick, see it.
If she's in a big-budget blockbuster, skip it.
You can say that to every other actors. Indie flicks offers them better scripts to work with than blockbusters. Blockbusters tend to focus on dollar signs than actually crafting a good movie. Even female empowerment stuff does it better in indie movies than in blockbusters (well Mad Max Fury Road was amazing blockbuster too that has feminist as the main theme of the movie). I always prefer indie films over blockbusters. I think she can be good in a big budget blockbuster, she just wasn't given a good material to work with. It's now mostly on the material than the actor
Nailed it!
Me and my wife were flipping through the movies from our on-demand-movie-provider the other day. Then we saw this Charlie’s Angels-movie passing by.
Me: “This was typically a movie the Drinker negatively discussed.”
My wife: “I understand, you can see it from the picture. Next!”
What did you end up watching?
@@B0mber44 Trainspotting 2. It was entertaining, though it felt like I was watching a recent concert of The Eagles: it were the same actors, it was the same story, but it felt a bit dated.

This was one of the first of your videos I watched, Drinker, and it completely changed how I write the women characters in my novels! Thank you. Sometimes I come back to watch it just for a refresher.
Diaz, Lu, and Barrymore were also hot and had fun being hot.
They knew full well who they were supposed to appeal to and embraced it completely.
Also Barrymore? She'd be more at home starring in a movie about Amy Schumer or 2018 version of Adele.

Director and the others: they're anti-feminist
Dammit it’s on 69
Yip...honestly when ur in a bubble..logic is usually the first thing to escape.
They did the same with Birds of Prey. Feminists told men it wasn't for them and not to go and see it then when the film flopped they blamed men for it even though they told them it wasn't for them.
Nothing like realizing that more women watched Rambo than this movie!
"I do this so that you won't have to."
That's why I prefer watching your content than seeing the movie itself like most movies these days.
Thanks for your endeavors, critical drinker! Cheers mate.
Banks: 'Men didn't come see my movie I specifically didn't make for them. They are all meanies!!! :'('
I hope they are going to start saying men made their women not go. Because they don't let them out of the kitchen. Lol
Is that like the most stupidest thing she could possibly say
she should ask herself why women had no interest in the movie.
Banks should be blaming Larson, she’s the one who told us to ignore these projects, I mean I was gunna see A Wrinkle in Time but then she said it wasn’t for me. I was gunna go see this but then I heard Larson’s voice in my head and was like “I guess I’ll spend that $12 on another two shots of whiskey.”
@@Revan-eb1wb I'm glad you said that because that's what I've been asking... Elizabeth Banks does not say one thing about that.
I for one am OUTRAGED: This is 2019, the Charlie's Angels remake should be starring a diverse multicultural cast of MEN as the Angels, because reversing things is always woke.

Sorry, but Woke is a one way street.

You say this as a joke but I wouldn’t mind a guys team, straight or gay, to be part of this franchise. The 2000 movie didn’t pretend to be anything other than fluff but still had girl power elements and waaay better action scenes. How does that happen?!
The 2019 one could have at least had “atomic blonde” or “John Wick” level action scenes - but the movie wasn’t enough of anything.
Plus the fact that any light hearted calmness the original had was erased in this one COMPLETELY
Baaaaahhhhhh

Thank goodness for UA-cam. Some writer in Scotland turns out to be the best movie reviewer ever.
Here it is 3 years later, and not only has Hollywood not woken up to not pissing off their audience, they've doubled down on this kind of crap again, and again, and again.
*_To be honest, the 70s TV show and the 2000s reboot of Charlie's Angels looks 100% hotter than the feminist abomination or whatever it is._*
That was 100% the intent. It's.. Uh... [Current Year], you know? And uh... showing skin and cleavage is... something. Flirting is also a symptom of the patriarchy.
The original lineup (Jackson, Fawcett, Smith) is hotter than any we've seen in a movie. And Cheryl Ladd was hotter than Farrah Fawcett, fight me.

Is it bad that I’m only hearing about this movie three years later, here on your channel?? Lol 😂. It was so bad Hollywood tried to hide it 🤣😂🤣
At least the original Charlie's Angels film had arcs and tension and drama.
In short, the original Charlie's Angels had a story.
Oh Critical Drinker, I salute & drink to you. There is too much, beautifully articulate, much needed, magnificent commentary to single out to comment on here so, bless you Sir, I'll have another drink to you!
I was a fan of the old school show and I never thought I would be sitting here saying Lucy,Cam and Drew did it way better.🤣🤣🤣🤣
The 2000 movie was flawed as hell but it was a thousand times better than this shite.
Me neither, the 2000 film was just so wierdly...goofy. Yet I didn't think it was bad. I much more enjoyed the story and plotlines, and more darker and less goofy "Full Throttle." That said, I was not caring they didn't make a third one. Now I wish they had, and never have made this or that 2011 (or was it 2013 I don't know) reboot tv series either. I enjoyed the original show and have seen the whole thing through twice now. At least it isn't going to exactly stop existing. Just a shame none of these morons seem to get why people liked it at all.
It DID elevate the first remake!
It hurts that I agree.
The 2000 movie and 2003 sequel were good enough and the characters were more better.

Totally Spies does Charlie's Angels better than they ever do themselves.
Ssh soon there will be a movie about them
I remember that show too! It's so weird when something inspired by something else is actually better than the original. It's like when a child becomes better at their parent's job when they grow up, while the parent starts to break down from old age.
I'll take your Totally Spies and raise you a Kim Possible. The REAL Kim Possible and not the one from that awful Disney Live action film.
People have been beating off to that show for 15 years, where no more than 15 total people will be degenerate enough to beat off to this dreck.
Idk about the og show but definitely better than this shit.
Reminds me of the time when Kathlyn Kennedy said the, "The force is female." and gems like, "Star Wars doesn't need male fans." And then when Solo: A Star Wars story was the first Star Wars in history to lose money. Who was the first to receive blame? Men. She tells the majority of Star Wars fans that they don't matter, and then blames them for the consequences of her actions. Classic.
Ryan Kelley What’s funny about the “Force is Female” thingy. Is how you can spin it. Allow me to demonstrate.
Star Wars Fan: “Actually the Force is an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us; it binds the galaxy together.”
Me: “You’re assuming the force’s Gender and I don’t think the Force appreciates your single minded viewpoint.”
So funny, good comment mate!
Damn, the recap of this movie is absolutely on target and I’m a psychologist. Well done.
I recently read it bombed, I did not even know this movie came out.
I loved the original two Charlie's Angels films, great actors, great fight scenes, great soundtracks, great fun!
"Jesus! The first world war was wrapped up faster than this thing!" I watch a lot of videos about movies on UA-cam all the time. I heard this line as I was about to minimize the screen and check something else on my phone when I was interrupted by this gem. I laughed so fucking hard at this comparison, that I thought now was the time to tell you how awesome I think your channel is. Not only is it funny, but it helps me understand why I like or dislike particular elements to movies. Your breakdown of Joker is a good example. I loved how the movie made me feel, the things it made me think about, and of course Phoenix's performance. Keep doing the damn thing, bruh!!

Boners require her consent! If she does not consent, you have no right to a boner and said boner is actually an act of mental and visual rape.
"Gigantor" gets funnier every time he says it.
What a lazy movie, they made every single men in the movie idiots and the women flawless and above all.
That is very normal. Look at any family sitcom. Overwhelmingly , the men are portrayed as idiots and the wives just nag them and roll their eyes , because the wives are doing them a favor just by marrying them , apparently.
You know what it reminded me? Of every single 'Isekai' anime and manga (basically, a guy dies and gets send to another universe and gets every single girl and is op), it is made by the same type of people; someone that is trying to live their fantasies through plain and empty characters.

I have no idea what they were even thinking. The people old enough to remember the original weren't terribly interested in it in the 70s, and most people actively ignored the Diaz one a couple of decades ago. It's a bad concept, a bad story and if it isn't funny or sexy nothing can save it. And obviously a feminist movie is not going to be funny or sexy. Because feminist don't have a sense of humor and haven't been wet since the original of Charlie's Angels was on TV. And neither do any other -ists for that matter.That's why they are -ists.

Really rare to watch some nice stuff nowadays, without "the message".
Charlie’s Angels didn’t need a reboot. The two movies we already HAD were good! They were fun! They had great female leads! Cameron Diaz was funny as hell and Drew Barrymore was as well. Lucy Liu knew how to act in movies like that so she was a perfect fit. They were a believable team for those movies and the over-the-top plots. This was just another forced political statement that should’ve been subtext, while the movie should’ve been entertaining fun.

There was a hilarious interview where Elizabeth Banks said that men should have enough empathy to watch movies with female leads. I always thought the goal of seeing a movie was to be entertained, not to express "empathy" for the people who made it.
That's literally my sister's explanation of why men should watch women's sports but women are excused from it "because most of us don't watch sports in the first place."

No other line has so perfectly captured the problem with movies like this.
Exactly, he summed it up perfectly..
@@aerial5587 Biggest problem really is alienination more than anything else. Preachiness is not a problem in of itself (James Cameron's Avatar is essentially Ferngully in space and yet is the highest grossing movie ever). The issue with these movies is that you divide your audience at best. 2016 Ghostbusters? Men hated it for being unfunny bullshit, women with any modicum of self awareness was it as stupid pandering bullshit and even the SJW, white apologist types eventually grew a few braincells. This? Horrendous flop. Black Widow? God that was shit and I hope it bombs hard.
@@lorddrayvon1426 I would argue that preachiness actually was a problem in Avatar...but James Cameron is such a good director, and the digitally-aided world he created so remarkable to drink in, that the tonal mistake didn't ruin the proceedings. I was in no hurry to see Avatar, but when I did get around to it I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked it. With one exception...the plot and characters were 1980s cartoon levels of one dimensional and black and white. The lesson to take from that isn't that preachiness can't be the downfall of a movie, but that strong filmmaking in general creates a margin for error even when mistakes happen.
That's why 2016 Ghostbusters went wrong...it was just utterly awful. Contrary to the implied criticism in this particular video, Chris Hemsworth's character was perhaps the only element (other than impressive-looking ghosts in some scenes) I enjoyed, and that's because self-aware goofy Chris Hemsworth is always a good time. But we expect a Ghostbusters movie to make us laugh at a steady rate from beginning to end, and the jokes in this thing were such duds...
@@redsoxu571 Oh boy you are not going to enjoy any of the classics like Indiana Jones then.
@@GordonSeal My bad...I didn't mean to imply that cartoony black and white characterizations are innately bad. On the contrary, they're great in the right media. Indiana Jones (which I love, excepting the fourth, and for very different reasons) was a 1930s serials-inspired adventure series, and in those some one-dimensional villains are expected (the protagonists still manage some nice depth, not surprising given how great Spielberg has always been at characters).
My point in this case was that Avatar had a central major message to it (a very fitting one, IMO), but either didn't trust the audience to handle characters of dimension or else simply was poorly written. We have evil corporations that apparently have zero sense of history regarding the abuse of indigenous populations (unrealistic, or arrogant in thinking that even though the empathy for such peoples has changed that big bad corporations will always care zero about such things, even if only to not upset human customers). We have big bad military, all hoo ha with no humanity whatsoever. Etc. Take the same movie with the same general plot and simply widen the characterizations a bit (some hesitancy, doubt, regret, anything along those lines) and you'd have a stronger movie; create realistically conflicted characters who outright wrestle with the right thing to do and you could have had a masterpiece, given what the film did so well.
If the point was to simply showcase the eye popping effects and world building, Cameron could have pulled back on the plot and made it about exploration and discovery, rather than exploitation. Heck, given the five film plan, that would have made even more sense, saving exploitation, conflict, abuse, rebellion for later, once simply going to Pandora wouldn't be enough for an audience.
That's what I was intending to speak towards. Hope that makes sense!
Kristen Stewart unironically looks very pretty done up as a girly girl, even if she’s only doing it satirically
The fact that her "disguise" made her look better than her actual character's look is too funny lol
I was just about to comment that. It's like Bree Larson in Endgame. She was pretty in the first half hour, until she got that God awful haircut
that's racist
Well, except her face, of course.
@@johnnysalery7383is it? The purpose of the clothing you wear shouldn’t always be to make yourself look as attractive as possible, a lot of the time what makes you look good brings some level of awkwardness/discomfort, and that’s especially true for women
"I do this so you don't have to".
Not all heroes wear capes.... Or are sober.
Come on, superheroes ain't sober. You need to be quite drunk before you decide it's OK to go out in a Batman outfit. And let's not even mention Captain America. You'd need to fill me up with booze until I burst before I'm going to dress up as an American flag right before entering a muddy battlefield 🤪

He probably went through 2 bottles of Captain Morgans Rum to help him stay till the end...He IS the critical drinker!
Funny how the Critical Drinker, who is only one man, is more accurate than Rotten Tomatoes 100% of the time.
The only way he could make this better is to actually be hammered while reading his laser precise analysis.
According to audiences, Critical Drinker is more accurate than Rotten Tomatoes 98% of the time, but according to critics, he's only more accurate 7% of the time.
he is better at writing than 99% of Hooliwood writer
Why does this movie have 79% on rotten from audience score when both the critics score and imdb score are way lower?
Less than 100%. Drinker missed the mark on HBO’s Watchmen.

She literally claimed that if you don’t pay to watch this movie in cinemas, that you’re a sexist.
The scary thing is, people tried to defend her as if they same people that shit on this movie, enjoy watching the originals.
I just find it funny how women like her think it’s fine to say “there’s been too much men on screen therefore other men shouldn’t have a chance regardless of their talent or merit”
But complain when others say “I don’t think this is good” and cry about how it’s somehow related to what’s between their legs.
Also, not to mention - people would complain seeing Patrick Stewart try to beat up the same people the Angles did for the exact same reasons (unrealistic and stupid) but somehow because he’s a man, it becomes a valid complaint.
@@thatboymeak I guess I’m a sexist then, because I literally had no idea this movie existed until the crapstorm that was 2020.
Judge Anderson from the 2012 Dredd film is a perfect example of how to make a strong female action hero. She's not punching out men twice her size one after the other, she's using her unique abilities combined with her wits and weaponry to make it through. She even undergoes some proper and believable character development, from nervous and adrenaline-soaked rookie to a more hardened Judge ready to deal with the horrific reality of the job. For God's sake, she can literally read peoples minds and she's a more believable character than anyone in this film.
Dredd (2012),
what a great action flick.
I was trying to think of a strong character who happens to be female recently and this fits perfectly.
@@ReeseLeeArt the fact that this "recent" example is over a decade old is a disturbing thing to think about.
And they had a strong female villain who was believable.
@@remylucaiLena Headey was perfect as the evil boss of the tower block, Ma-ma... Now that lady can truly act!!!!

Elisabeth Banks.
Yes but Banks didn't take this movie to the bank. It was a flop
Too bad she ruined her likability from the lego movie and hunger games.

That's what I said about Dragon Ball Evolution. I pirated it, on a friend's laptop using their electricity and wifi, and I still paid WAY too much...
I watched the captain marvel review on cinemasins channel one day while testing an apple laptop in the store.
I want my money back,
Now.

Sameee. The McG movies were bad BUT fun AF.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You just won the internet.
Here's the problem. Charlie's Angel's is a movie about stripper ninjas who neither strip, nor are they ninja.
I like that explanation lol
🤣 this made me laugh
Can we just get some stripper ninja?
only preteen girls like this stuff, question remains: "why let ur impressionable preteen watch this crap"?
I think strippers are played out in cinema, but Id watch a film about female ninja strippers, I mean Roger Corman made a career out of those kind of films. WHERE IS THE CURRENT DAY ROGER CORMAN?!?!?
News: “Men under increasingly hostile social environments, women most affected.”
It's actually true. All those mid 30s women complaining they can't find a man. 😆
I think its the whole point of these movies, so you stay single and resent each other without making family
@@kdgang1 That's a big part of the socialist utopian agenda - breaking down the family unit.

I can't for the life of me imagine how this movie is suppose to be fun to watch for a woman. If I was a woman and saw this, I would just feel embarrassed. Not really positive representation in any sense of the term.
Midnight's edge remarked, "more women saw Rambo: Last blood than Charlie's angels". That's got to burn.
I know of no one who saw this piece of shit in theaters. Or Ghostbusters 2016...
@@robertfitzgerald3118 I did.
As someone who thought Rambo: Last Blood was trash too (never liked that plot they mentioned for a decade or trashing Rambo's attempt at a new life in such a manner, much preferred John Rambo as an ending and solid sequel better than 3), I'm still not suprised at all.

Yeah, except he got "The guy from 'Gladiator'" wrong.
Yeah, some of my favorites: "Lumpy alien bodybuilder", "Rambo Impostor", and of course "Apple genius "
I particularly like his names in "Prometheus". I find myself involuntarily laughing several times when watching most of CD's videos.
My personal favorite is "Magical space wizard wearing a fishbowl filled with bong smoke," which is from his review of Spiderman: Far From Home.
I love his term for Grace in Terminator Dark Fate - “Androgynous Thing” 😂😂 and his accent just makes everything sound better

Jackisawinner even quicker if you are a yank.
To be fair, it was almost exactly 14 years between the 9/11 terror attacks and the completion of the Freedom Tower to replace the WTC, while the empire state building took barely over a year to build. The war in Iraq and Afghanistan have lasted nearly 20 years, while WW2 lasted not even 10. Everything takes longer now - even if they are pointless and without virtue compared to their antecedents.
