Demi’s good-looking but still 'can’t act'

Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle star Demi Moore has won favorable reviews for her stunning looks - but her acting skills, once again, have been panned.

Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle star Demi Moore has won favorable reviews for her stunning looks - but her acting skills, once again, have been panned.

The hit movie, which opened on cinema screens in America last weekend, features the 40-year-old Striptease star in a small role as the evil Angel Madison, but very few critiques actually discuss Moore's performance - focusing instead on her appearance.

The Boston Globe says, "Her wet hair shines like a seal's pelt, her teeth are whiter than Ron Howard, and you can still scrub clean an entire bathroom with that voice, but she's as humorless as ever."

A reviewer on magazine Us Weekly writes, "Moore, looking incredible in the teeniest of bikinis, enjoys the splashiest of moments," while USA Today notes, "She out-babes the leads”.

Meanwhile, the New York Times offers, "The movie's conception of adulthood is to show that 40-ish Dark Angel, Madison, as being in such spectacular shape that she upstages the don't-dare-scratch-me red Ferrari she drives."

But there does seem to be one common opinion on Moore's much hyped comeback alongside Drew Barrymore, Lucy Liu and Cameron Diaz, - her performance is unlikely to win her any awards.
