Sadly Over-hyped

Don't Believe the Hype

Did you people see the same film I saw?

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

The second attempt to remake Charlies Angels for the 8o's (the first was the even cheesier Velvet) 3 chicks, Joanna Cassidy the secret agent leader of the team, Sheryl Lee Ralph the thief (wow not too much of a stereotype there) and Robin Cook...um the driver? At least Velvet (with their 4 aerobic instructor secret agents) was cheesy in a good way, this was just bad bad BAD!!!! I think this used to come on Friday nights, and being a kid, and a huge fan of Charlies Angels I really wanted to like this mess, but even a 12 year old knows a mess when he sees it. The strange thing is, this was a made for TV movie before the series started, was the movie really THAT popular that people were screaming for a weekly series?

A rather brain dead attempt at an action/spy TV series that was remarkably poorly done. My friends and I would get together every week just to make fun of the opening credits! Fortunately for its stars, Sheryl Lee Ralph and Joanna Cassidy it did not stick around very long.
