Being an action star in the 90s and early 2000s was probably so much harder because of training like this, but it REALLY made the movies that much better, a lot of respect to these three
They still have very intensive training for action actors in major motion pictures now. Though I suspect they're not forcing their head to their thighs the first day after they say they can't touch their toes... Because that sounds like it could easily lead to an injury. And there's a bit more knowledge about overtraining now than there was then (and an injured actor represents a delay and costs).
@@ceceliam9014Yeah, I mean actors usually are in better condition than regular 9 to 5 folks but muscle damage can lead to liver problems or kidney failure. They could've ended in the hospital depending on how hard they pushed them. I'm not exaggerating either, I know someone who did cuz her coach pushed her too hard: Rhabdomyolysis. The muscles don't have time to heal after an intense workout and you're dehydrated, which leads to kidney failure.
@@ceceliam9014 The training they tend to do now is all physique based - gym workouts, muscle building and toning, etc. They don't do as much skill based training like the girls did for CA, or the cast of The Matrix, etc. Hence why a lot of the big action films in more recent years like the MCU use shaky cam, fast editing, and CGI face replacement FX to cover up all the stunt doubling in the fights and action scenes.
@@maxsommers6843 Yeah, I could see that being the case for the big superhero movies, for sure. And a lot of the mainstream movies that are light entertainment based. There's definitely still movies that prioritize good fight choreo though, and they'd do more skill based training. But they're a bit more niche. Though this movie may have been pretty niche with its stylized fight choreo, too, even for the time period. It was harder to hide stunt doubles at this time, but we were more accepting if seeing them. Now it sometimes seems like if we don't directly see an actor get punched in the face then we're not happy, lol. We don't like to suspend that disbelief.
Well, the audience had to be convinced that those ladies could really kick butts. The actresses put in the hard work and the audience were happy and the movie was a big hit :)
she probably didn't need as much work so would just be her doing well & the other two getting there lol as they said she was both styles ie easy to choreograph on!
Fr. In every little clip she seemed very natural and flexible, so I would've loved to have heard what she thinks helped her to be so good, like if she has a history of martial arts or dance. Instead of just the "relatable" girls, who knew nothing coming into it. Like, cool, but I bet Lucy has an interesting stories.
martial art choreographer martial art coordinator stunt coordinator these people's role may looks the same but they are so different for many reasons. I just realised this when I watch The Fall Guy. there are so many people involved just for a scene?? we really overlook them and now I can't stop admiring these people for their artistic work
I have truly wonderful memories of these two Movies growing up. Fantastic memories. These 3 gorgeous ladies were a great part of my childhood. Such a fun experience. They really don’t make movies like this anymore.
i can’t understand why lucy lui finds a sequel to be unfeasible . the amount of training that would require to go into especially at their age now would be a challenge. we really admire the work they did more than ever
I love to see that actors really do put in do put in the work, time and effort into doing the stunt work rather than solely rely on doubles to do it all, and just have the actors for close ups. Much respect to them
There's no replacement for hard work. That's probably why all the wire-fu stunts still look cool up to this day. The actors really had to look and play the part. P.S. I did some wushu when I was younger. Those stretching exercises are no joke.
They (Lucy Liu, Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore) should do that, training to fight, more often in another or more action movies, where they're not villains or enemies. They didn't seem like this had this, training, for the failing Charlie's Angels movie.
remember when female led movies could just be fun and entertaining? they weren't made to send some stupid message, these movies were great fun and both grossed a few hundred million, meanwhile the stupid serious "girl power" reboot in 2019 looked like it was going to actually lose money but eventually scraped in a meager 70mil!
I'm having a really hard time remembering if there was a fun girl power movie, without hating on the men, since these angels. If the newer shows were less toxic this and toxic that, girls would truly be empowered rather than hatefull.
They’re not hateful just beating toxic men’s ass. They have Boss and Charlie who are men that they get along with. Just because it’s a movie empowering women does not mean that they hate men. It’s very showing of some of the men women may encounter in our world.
@@brittanybinger3215 She's talking about recent movies like the 2019 reboot of Charlie's Angels, the Birds of Prey movie, the 2016 Ghostbusters, Captain Marvel, etc. They absolutely were toxic and man hating.
Absolutely no mention that its an all female-led action movie, or any of that ESG score nonsense they parrott for EVERY movie nowadays. Just actors discussing doing stunts. The way it should be. Is anyone surprised this Charlie's Angels succeeded where the modern day ESG score reboot failed?
GFY; Charlie's Angels was absolutely recognized as an "all-female leads" show back in 1976, so much so that male execs did not want to air it because they thought no one would watch. It lasted five seasons.
@@meherenow793 That's cool of you to try and move that goalpost, but I'm commenting objectively about a video up above. My comment makes sense and applies to the video we're both commenting on. Your comment isn't reflected int eh video. Maybe go find a video talking about the subject matter you're making claims about. That would make more sense.
I think it’s because people in the industry these days are so focused on recognizing the flaws of everything and not recognizing actual amazing moments in the history of cinema that already tackled so many issues. This movie was unapologetically funny but the action was wonderful too. And yeah, the lead were women but people didn’t go see it because they were women, they went to see it for great entertainment period.
@@arystanbeck914 I was talking about the trainers, and although I agree with you to a point, an untrained man is soft and vulnerable as a baby, and a well trained female could definitely kick their ass...these girls meh...probably not...but it was a cool movie!
Why would you possibly think that matters? They’re actors. You don’t think they know they’re pretending for a fiction movie? Sounds like you need reminding of reality
Being an action star in the 90s and early 2000s was probably so much harder because of training like this, but it REALLY made the movies that much better, a lot of respect to these three
I would only want to be in a movie that trains you. It’s so cool

And they did it in heels! Hands down one of my favorite movies 1 and 2.
I actually liked to pause in the fight scenes to see if they were still in heels cause in most fight scenes, they switched to flats 😅
The soundtracks were amazing - bought them immediately after seeing the movies.
THEY DID IT IN HEELS
This was peak soft action. No other version has gotten even closer to what these three have achieved with Charlie's Angels. One of my favorite movies
Well, the audience had to be convinced that those ladies could really kick butts. The actresses put in the hard work and the audience were happy and the movie was a big hit :)
There wasn't enough Lucy Lui in the bts
Well she's in the thumbnail and have stolen the show already... 😉

@@darkangellewso true. she has it all

Agreed!
well that's why Charlie's Angels 2000 is the best!
Well that's a thumbnail

So that’s what you had for lunch.

Hahahahaha true!!!
I couldn't resist
No but like this is the type of combat style Charlie’s angels suits, not just punch and simple kicks. The art form makes them look like bad ass.
Damn, Lucy Liu ain’t playin’ around. 🫨🫨🫨
🤔 what did she even do in this video to make you single her out?
@@JadeK297The way she went down like that with no arms. Plus you could tell the power in her movements. She just looked better and stronger.
@@LadyVenVenShe likely had a gymnastics background which made learning the choreography easier.
We're so grateful. Things like that is making movie so enjoyable. You want to watch this over and over again. Thanks from Russia.
remember when Jennifer Lawrence said she was the first female lead of an action film
Lol
Ultra lol
That's comical
She said that?😭😭
Nevermind just searched😭😭as a human? Cringed as a woman?😭😭there aren’t enough holes to swallow me up
Cameron is so stunning and gorgeous. Drew is adorable and Lucy is a cool, bad ass.
I couldn’t recast even in my wildest dreams!

Drew, so glad you didn't self destruct. "And that's kicking your ass." Drew Barrymore all over the place.
they don't do it like this anymore, sadly
One of my favorites to this day 🙌🏽
I have truly wonderful memories of these two Movies growing up. Fantastic memories. These 3 gorgeous ladies were a great part of my childhood. Such a fun experience. They really don’t make movies like this anymore.

I would love to have another one with them as retired angels coming back to save the day.
And that’s kicking your ass!
When you realize in 2024 it’s been as many years since this movie as the movie was from the debut of the show. 🤯
I love to see that actors really do put in do put in the work, time and effort into doing the stunt work rather than solely rely on doubles to do it all, and just have the actors for close ups. Much respect to them
Cameron's face is so stunning, I think she really couldn't have done anything else other than be on camera!
Interesting choice for a thumbnail.
The training what was missing from the reboot movie. And great acting 🙊🫠
Never saw the movie, but now I genuinely want to.
please do.
Its so good
Totally should, good comedy/action.
You should it's really good, specially the second one
Have you seen them yet?
I desperately wish we could get one last movie.
Still one of the best action comedy films for me when I was young, they are so inspiring!
I watch Charlie's Angels 1 and 2 for these fight choreos, there's something about 3 hot girls who can kick arse.
All I have to say about this movie is ...OOOOOoooooooo Barracuda😫😫🥵🥵🥵
the background interviews too loud, i wanna hear the music
Alot of insights revealed here about learning kung fu ❤❤❤
There's no replacement for hard work. That's probably why all the wire-fu stunts still look cool up to this day. The actors really had to look and play the part.
P.S. I did some wushu when I was younger. Those stretching exercises are no joke.
😂 Cameron Diaz’s neck curls…
they worked their ass off for this movie
Would have been great if they did a 3rd….but the 2nd had such a great ending….hard to top it..

Dream job
That looks like fun. I want to do that

They (Lucy Liu, Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore) should do that, training to fight, more often in another or more action movies, where they're not villains or enemies. They didn't seem like this had this, training, for the failing Charlie's Angels movie.
they ARE the angels
2:22 Lucy Liu 🥵🥵🥵
But now all actresses and actors works with a stunt-masters cause of “oh it’s must be risky to our actors if they get a injury! We’d lost money!”

I hope they didn't obtain a false belief that they can fight now. Because those kung-fu trainers never fought and can't fight themselves.
They can fight better than people with no training
@@leroilapue15 no, any man of similar size or even smaller will knock out any these girls even without any training.
