Didn't see this film when it came out because it didn't appeal to me at first - but just watched it on cable. Now I am VERY critical of most movies and it takes a lot to please me. That being said, this wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
Actually it was kind of cute. The best parts were in the first half, when the girls were dressing up in all kinds of different costumes and going "undercover" to scout out the crime and criminals. Then unfortunately the movie turned into Jane Bond and went way over the top. The first half is very true to the TV series and the second half isn't. Other complaints are the presence of Tom Green (not just in the movie but basically on planet Earth) and the stupid Matrix-Crouching Tiger fight scenes. But those fight scenes were required in every movie in the year 2000, I think - and now that the 3 Musketeers remake with those fight scenes bombed - we have a reprieve for a while. Phew!
Overall, 7 out of 10 rating.
