Alright now that I know that bit - hit me with a little clip....
Well I'm still reading so I must be intrigued tell me more!
Overview
Was pretty much what I expected to happen. Movie about woman kicking ass and taking names. Was surprised about the performance from Kristen Stewart, was actually decent. I'm so used to Twilight that my expectations for her weren't that great going in.
Story
A new device is invented to solve the energy crisis but is quickly turn into a device that can kill people. Device falls into the the hands fo the bad guys and the girls need to get it back before it can be sold to terrorists.
Characters
Good development on the characters since they were new to the Angels franchise. There is room for improvement however I can see that being done in a sequel if needed.
Female Representation
Really loved the characters and their kicks fighting skills. Loved that Bosley was a woman. Then we have the 'damsel in distress' is the scientist behind the evil device. So all around all the woman representation in one film.
That's all great and thanks but the real deets now!
Okay movie. I would say wait till is comes out on DVD. Your now missing anything by seeing it in the cinema.
Rhiannon viewed the film in 2D setting at Cineworld Rushden Lakes on 6 December 2019.
