Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle may have been about as much fun as a date with Harold Shipman's missus, but this, another comedy rejig of a '70s TV show, looks more promising. Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson take over from Glaser and Soul as the plainclothes Los Angeles detectives, while Snoop Dogg slides into the pimp-suit as Huggy Bear. Despite being released 25 years after the TV show ended, the movie is set before the original, showing how anally-retentive Starsky and so-hip-it-hurts Hutch became partners in the first place. Vince Vaughn (Swingers) plays the film's resident villain, Amy Smart and Carmen Electra spice things up elsewhere. Exciting enough to make you drive full pelt into a pile of cardboard boxes.
