No matter how much we chase new content throughout the week, a Saturday night movie should always scream nostalgia, fun, and comfort. With Netflix making November a throwback month with the best of the best landing from Hollywood’s Hall of Fame, Charlie’s Angels is probably the perfect weekend starter to catch up with now.

The iconic trio landed on Netflix US with the onset of November, right on the first day, and it honestly feels like a crime to let it go without a rewatch.

Even if you’re a first-time watcher, Charlie’s Angels is a fun-tastic pick, and in case you didn’t know about its availability on the platform, well, you’re welcome. The film is the perfect low-effort weekend viewing content that demands no cognitive commitment. Instead, it’s a time bomb that blasts you right into the electric era of the early 2000s, full of camp and zero boredom.

It is the first film from the Charlie’s Angels trilogy that materialised into a cult classic over the years. The spy action-comedy movie follows a trio of private investigators portrayed by Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, and Lucy Liu, who work for an enigmatic millionaire whom they’ve never seen. They are primarily assisted and mediated by Charlie’s handler, Bosley.

The mission is quite simple, or so it seems, when a genius software engineer is abducted, and the angels are tasked with rescuing him. While they waste no time going headfirst into action, leveraging their skills of disguise, martial arts, and espionage, little do they know the mission awaits a plot twist they can barely imagine, just when they succeed.

Charlie’s Angels is a movie where every word of praise seems less. From astounding star chemistry to high-octane pacing, every aspect of the flick will leave you craving for more. It may feature over-the-top action sequences, but to date, they never feel extra. If anything, if you’re here as a first-time viewer, you’ll be caught off guard with the barrage of gags that awaits you.

To top it off, there’s always the nostalgia factor at play whenever we return to this trilogy. After all, it was nothing less than groundbreaking for its time. So, if you’re on the lookout for something mindlessly fun, high on energy, and completely not serious to watch on Netflix this Saturday, take a trip with these beauties with brains, as Charlie’s Angels is currently streaming on Netflix US. And the best part about repeat viewing? It doesn’t need to be rented!
