Also--perhaps sensing that a parade of butts and boobs isn't the best place to talk politics--the social commentary shizz is limited to the Angels using kung-fu rather than guns, which is (almost) never commented on, and the Angels who are girls being able to do literally everything (which is the whole joke; they're so hypercompetent that they could beat Roger Moore's Bond in a trivia contest).
It's a level of self-awareness--maybe our guilty pleasure nostalgia bomb of a 1970s TV show doesn't have anything to add to the Discourse--that I miss from Hollywood.

Not as many butts and boobs as the old days - last few films, fast and furious have clearly been trying to avengers - but yeah, I agree.
