They've been hurt before . . . but not like this!

This is a polygonal beat-em-up game along the lines of Fighting Force and Hidden Invasion. And like those two, it's a horrible game.
The camera is sloppy. Not as bad as Hidden Invasion, but it can sometimes get stuck at inappropriate places (I ain't talkin' in a good way either!), and you have no control over it.
The gameplay is monotonous. You knock thugs around and then follow an arrow to where you beat more people up. At some point in the stage, you press the A button to activate a switch or call another Angel.
The controls are awkward. Once again, the analog shoulder buttons are used at full disadvantage: you have to press them all the way in until they click. On the default control set-up, you jump with B, punch with Y, kick with X, pick stuff up with A, focus on an enemy with R, switch targets with Z, and temporarily power-up with L. This setting can be frustrating when trying to perform an arial attack. You can also switch the actions of B and X, but that doesn't really make things easier. If you have to know, the Start button pauses the game and brings up a menu, the control stick moves the Angel, and the cross-pad and yellow C-stick do nothing as far as I remember.
The music is so-so, with various techno-tunes and a louzy digital song at the Start Menu.
You can access bonus features, such as a Teaser, photos, and...uh, I can't remember what else, by collecting CDs and memory sticks scattered around the areas. You can also watch each computer-generated Full-Motion Video piece as many times as you want after you get to that part in the game.
The character models might pass for okay on an earlier console, but on today's systems, I expect more polygons and better textures. The outfits aren't too bad though.
I don't recommend buying this game or even playing it. If you have to satisfy your curiosity like I did, try a rental.

N64 has better graphics

I rented this game from blockbuster to test it out. I had just seen the 2nd movie, which also sucks, but I thought since the movies are all about fighting, it can probably like an arcade game. But no, I was wrong. Maybe they could have made it better if they did not cram the game together to release it with the movie. I reccomend to rent it first if you are interested in it but please, DO NOT GO BUY IT!

Heavenly

Well, I appear to be the only human being on the face of this Earth that enjoyed the "Charlie's Angels" game. Sure, the graphics aren't the best, but the plot is cool and the fighting is pretty tight. I mean, when the first "Charlie's Angels" movie came out, I was hoping they would release a video-game. I bought this game the day it came out. There is really nothing wrong here. Well, that's a lie. But, it isn't the worst game. I love how the actors lent their voice to the game. Here is a mini breakdown:

**Graphics 2/5: Yikes. Not the bests. They're kind of like Game Boy Advance graphics only more polished. The Angels look like the Angels, I think.**

**Sound 4/5: The sound is pretty cool because you can hear the punches and the kicks. And, the actresses lend their voices. However, they have some whack white dude doing Bosely's voice.**

**Control 5/5: There really isn't that much to know about the controls. I mean, they are as straightfoward as can be. But, they are simply "Streets of Rage" like. Easy to pick up and play.**

*Overall 4/5: I really enjoyed this game. Sure, it's the same thing in every level, but I love the whole beat 'em up theory the game delivers. It's straight beat 'em up. And, you can pick up weapons and things. I just think that people should cut this some slack, it isn't that bad. Don't let the bad reviews steer your view about it. If you are skeptical, rent this and try it. I think, if only you like "Streets of Rage", you'll enjoy this little piece.

**Kind of like: "Streets of Rage", "Fighting Force", "Alias", "Dark Angel"

I got this game thinking that there would be some major ass kicking going on as there is in the movies. It seemed okay at first, but then as I advanced through the game I realized how unbelievably repetetive and boring it was. It never got any better. This was one of the worst games I've ever played.

Boring..... :(

This game is so stupid, i mean dont get me wrong...i love both the charlies angels movies but this game doesnt do them any justice. Bassically you do the same thing in evey level, fight the bad guys and then call another angel do the exact same thing.
The only reason anyone should get this game is because of the animated movies they show once u finnish the level, but trust me, even they arent good enough to keep your attention.

Worst game ever

Totally useless game. All you do is fight the same bad guys over and over and over in different scenery. It is totally and completly monotonous. Don't bother buying.

Best Teenage Girls' Game Of The 2000s!!

Hello, folks!! This game is such a fantastic one for those who are adolescent girls and are striving to mastering these video games at this rating that appeal to many grownup women as well. Unfortunately, most video games like these still continues to offer many boys to go for in general which may provide unneccessary harshness.

The graphics are so excellent and the control techniques are a lot easier to outdo. Before you begin to advance to the hard mode, you must work several times as hard in the previous levels of difficulty and be at least in your late teens in order to master every fighting technique in the most challenging level (academically). The main tip is the most helpful. Happy Mastering!!

This is the worst game out for Gamecube. It even beat Mystic Heros for worst voice acting of all time. The action is clunky and the camera control is non-existent. All you do is fight clone armies of the same guy. If you plan on maintaining your sanity stay AWAY from this game.

Just straight up terrible!!!! - Edwin Montanez
