Storyline

The Angels--Natalie, Dylan, and Alex are back again but this time they're preparing for a strike without even warning as they go undercover to retrieve two missing silver bands. These are no ordinary rings. They contain valuable encrypted information that reveal the new identities of every person in the Federal Witness Protection Program. When witnesses start turning up dead, only the Angels, using their expertise as masters of disguise, espionage and martial arts can stop the perpetrator, a mysterious "fallen" Angel. Aided by their trusty colleague, Jimmy Bosley, the Angels' adventure begins at a remote Mongolian outpost and ends only after Dylan is forced to face a dark secret from her past--a secret that puts the lives of her two best friends in danger.

Crazy Credits

Outtakes and a scene in which the Angels are washing a car in a sexy way are shown during the credits.

Alternate Versions

The UK cinema version was cut by three seconds (sight and sound of a head-butt to Dylan) to secure a more commercial '12A' rating. Furthermore, the unrated DVD edition widely available elsewhere could not be released in the UK at the time, as it would require being upgraded to a '15' rating, and BBFC policy would then not allow two versions of the same film with different ratings. In short, the UK DVD release is the cut, theatrical version without the extra scenes present in the unrated version.

Bad

The Thin Man is THE only good thing in this movie.

The first movie was great, but this one is really BAAAAADDDDD! Of course, I would love to see the third one, but just because I hope they will rectify their mistakes. Demi Moore? Bad. Theroux? Bad. Santoro? The biggest mistake of this movie! The Angels? They are good, funny, but the movie is still bad. Stunts? Bad! Do you remember how great was that alley fight in the first movie? That was cool and these fight are just...BAD. They are not fun they are stylish, they are not beautiful as that alley fight.

The Thin Man is THE only good thing!
