The posing, the exaggeration, I love how they put the element of comedy or maybe satire into martial arts. It was so much fun.

[@billybob7135]

I love how the Thin Man actually comes across as a threat - none of the Angels could take him 1 on 1, but they didn't need to. Their teamwork was creative and got them the win.

[@bucksboyblue]

I always wondered how the three of them couldn't take him here, yet Alex handles him solo pretty well in the final fight.

[@johndevitt5619]

Because the actor saw the script and thought it was so trash that he refused to speak in the film. Good call.

[@Timehasfallenasleep]

It is indeed the best fight scene of any film. Better than the Merovingian fight in the Matrix. Especially that split second where the three Angels charge after the creepy thin man has run out of bullets - that split second where the beat of the music kicks in - fantastic. Perfect blend of style, choreography, action and fantasy.

[@diandiaz9026]

This is one of my favorite scenes of all time and the music really captures it for a while. Prodigy is great for this scene

[@egobang0716]

This fight scene is a wonderful introduction to how each angel's fighting style fits with their personality and unique strengths. You even see it further in the movie when they fight at the old castle. Natalie's natural athleticism = classic hand-to-hand martial arts Alex's precision and technical prowess = weapon mastery / prop-based fighting style Dylan's strength and aggression = brawler fighting style But they usually only succeed against their biggest enemies when they all come together as a team 😊

[@arrownoir]

That’s cheating. Jumping the enemy 3 on 1 is so dishonorable.

[@neosonic23]

What made Charlie's Angel's so cool is that this was the 1st action movie inspired by The Matrix which came out a year before. This led to so many more Slow-mo action scenes that it's regular thing today.

The brother of the fight choreographer for the Matrix did the fights for this and purposely borrowed a few bits from him, including his films prior to the Matrix - the scene with Drew listing fighting techniques is a direct homage to a fight in Iron Monkey.

[@Whawpenshaw]

1:19 - 1:26 is legit one of my favorite shots of all time. It's so good. The timing, the music, the use of slow-mo, the wild flips.

[@laughingocelot2097]

Overall this fight scene is pretty okay but you can tell the choreographer had a lot of fun with it. The team moves are creative, the wire-fu is turned up to 11. And the music reminds me of original Yakuza so that's always a plus

I still love this movie and watch it occasionally. It's just pure escapist entertainment.

Takes me back to a much better time in my life.

[@peteroliphant7289]

the thin man is a pretty awesome fighter... just one of the girls can take on half a dozen fighters at once (one time even tied to a chair and both her hands tied behind her back...hehe)... and he takes on all three at the same time to a stalemate... it is also cool how he becomes allies with the girls in the 2nd movie... :)

Agree, they only brought Kelly Garrett too at the end. Elizabeth Banks did a great job directing, but the story line needed tightening up and she abandoned too much of the original series trying to do something new. There was a visual of the costumes and clothes and then Kelly, but hardly none of the music/sounds from the original series. I don't know. It's hard to appreciate the 2019 version.

Fun Facts: the Thin Man was originally a speaking role, but, Crispin Glover didn't like the lines, so he asked for them to be removed. The man who directed this movie (McG) and Drew Barrymore who produced the movie agreed to make it a non-speaking role to give the character a more mysterious feel. Crispin Glover also came up with many of his character's eccentric traits, such as ripping off women's hair, sniffing it, and then screaming

The Thin Man (for whom Glover apparently sat down and wrote a, like, forty-page novella outlining his entire backstory - you can thank him for the bugfuck insane flashback scene in the sequel) came this close to getting his own spinoff film, and I will regret to my dying day that this did not happen.

Hello 👋 🫂 nice to meet you all if OK I like your video

[@aaronmehaffey6251]

I agree, it bugs me too. They know the Thin Man's objective was to escape when they chased him into the alley, so their goal should have been to prevent that by surrounding him. With the three angels together, one of them should be positioned between him and any escape route at any given time. There's no good reason for the three of them to stop and pose in front of him when there's a blind alley directly behind him. (edit: Mind you, I've got nothing against the posing. That's a big part of the whole Charlie's Angels idiom. Pose it up. Just do it while you keep him SURROUNDED.)

[@EnkinduGamer]
