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.

* AlasPoorVillain: [[spoiler:The Thin Man because of his HeelFaceTurn.]]
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Angels deduce that Randy is a villain because Dylan immediately starts lusting after him, and it is later revealed that, in her past, she was in a relationship with [[spoiler:Seamus O'Grady]].
* AscendedExtra: Natalie's love interest Pete gets a bigger role here.
* AssKickingPose: The film is the TropeNamer. Madison herself says, "The Angels ass-kicking pose"
* BadassBiker: Natalie, Thin Man, Max, Randy Emmers, and the Coal Bowl MC (Music/{{Pink}}'s cameo character).
* BarehandedBladeBlock: Seamus catches the Thin Man's sword this way, who responds by kicking him off the rooftop.
* BigBad: [[spoiler:Madison Lee]].
* BrokenPedestal: The Angels, especially Natalie, are huge fans of former Angel Madison Lee. Not so much after she's revealed to be the villain.
* BulletproofVest: The Angels use them to stop rounds fired from Demi Moore's twin Desert Eagles, dusting themselves off and keeping it moving like nothing happened. In reality, the vests would provide very little if any protection against such high caliber rounds. One could easily still die, and at the very least would be incapacitated with severe internal injuries and broken bones.
* CastingGag: Creator/CarrieFisher plays a nun, which she also did in ''Film/JayAndSilentBobStrikeBack''.
* CombatPragmatist: The Angels and Madison Lee display moments of this trope. For Madison, she is quick to go for her guns the first chance she gets, shooting the Angels in her first fight with them. However, in the first encounter, the Angels are savvy enough to wear kevlar under their clothes and in the second encounter they use a pair of whips to disarm Madison. In the climactic battle, Madison kicks a piece of the stage at Natalie and holds her at gunpoint. She pretty much has her dead to rights until the other [[BigDamnHeroes two Angels come to Natalie's rescue.]]
* TheCameo: Rapper Eve and Creator/MaryKateAndAshleyOlsen make cameo appearances (presumably as themselves) in Dylan's imagination (in which she imagines a future with an ever-changing Angel line-up).

Unlike the mooks, who did pause to listen to her, Seamus [[RealityEnsues just immediately punches her]].

* DoesntLikeGuns: The Angels' habit of doing this is given a continuity nod when the BigBad chuckles at their ass-kicking pose and remarks that back in her day, Angels used guns. Cue DualWielding golden [[HandCannon Desert Eagles]].
* DramaticShattering: When Dylan encounters Seamus again for the first time in years, she drops the champagne bottle she's holding in shock and fear, causing it to shatter to pieces.
* EmbarrassingLastName: It is revealed that [[spoiler:Dylan Sanders]] used to be named Helen Zass (just say it out loud...), but had to change it after being placed in the Witness Protection Program.

* HateSink: Seamus O'Grady is an Irish mobster who dated and was put away by Dylan who ended up in Witness Protection because of it. Released early from prison, he taunts and fights Dylan and threatens to kill her friends Natalie and Angel Alex Munday just to hurt her even more. During the climax, O'Grady kills the Thin Man by stabbing him in the back with his own blade.

* SerendipitousSurvival: When the Angels are trying to figure out Ray Carter's cryptic message on the way to stop [[spoiler:Madison]], Natalie has a "aha!" moment that, being Natalie, has her start dancing, which causes everyone to stop and try to figure out what she's doing until she explains that he was talking about star names on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (dancing was for Fred Astaire). Had she not caused them to stop, they would have been in or near their car when it exploded, instead of enough feet away to only get knocked backward uninjured.

Despite the fact that Bosley appeared to be beloved by the Angels in the first film, here they never seem to miss him for even a moment -- nor is his absence (and current whereabouts) ever explained.

** Seamus's release from prison is an almost shot-for-shot of Max Cady's release in the remake of ''Film/CapeFear'', along with the score from the film playing any time Seamus does something creepy.
* TheSpeechless: It is revealed that The Thin Man has been mute since childhood (it is implied to be due to the trauma of losing his parents at a young age). [[spoiler:He does make a valiant attempt to speak later on, but he doesn't manage to get the words out... and is stabbed before Dylan (and the audience) get to find out if he can]].
* TakeThatKiss: [[spoiler: Madison Lee gives one to Natalie on the cheek ''complete with saliva strains'' as she holds her at gunpoint.]]
* ATaleToldByAnIdiot: Whenever Alex tries to tell her father what she, Natalie and Dylan really do, she makes it sound less like they're an elite team of secret agents and more like they're a trio of prostitutes. Not helped by her boyfriend Jason, who assumed her father knew about her spy work and explains some of her job's undercover antics without any context.

** When the Angels are caught rescuing the hostage US Marshal Ray Carter.
** By the BigBad after the Angels foil their original plan with the Witness Protection Halo rings.
** By the Angels to Bosley when they have to stop the BigBad's Plan B.
* TrailersAlwaysSpoil: The trailers and marketing played up [[spoiler:Madison Lee]]'s status as the BigBad despite it being presented in the film as a surprise twist.
* {{Troperiffic}}: Right to the name "''[[{{Pun}} Full Throttle]]''". (Probably completely intentional.)
* WitnessProtection: [[spoiler:Madison's]] plan is to steal the list of people currently in the witness protection program and sell it to the highest bidder among several criminal groups. It turns out [[spoiler:Dylan]] is one of the names on the list due to [[spoiler:turning in evidence against Seamus after witnessing him murdering someone.]]
* WoundedGazelleGambit: The opening has the Angles rescuing Ray Carter who later talks of having suffered a few broken ribs. After he gets the "data rings," Carter is heading out and Bosley tosses his keys over which Carter reaches up to grab easily. Both Alex and Natalie see he shows no signs whatsoever of any pain and realize Carter was faking the injuries which means he was in on this whole thing. They congratulate Bosley for the great bluff to figure it out...and he's completely confused as he had no inkling Carter wasn't hurt and was honestly just tossing the guys the keys.

** When the Angels are caught rescuing the hostage US Marshal Ray Carter.
** By the BigBad after the Angels foil their original plan with the Witness Protection Halo rings.
** By the Angels to Bosley when they have to stop the BigBad's Plan B.
* TrailersAlwaysSpoil: The trailers and marketing played up [[spoiler:Madison Lee]]'s status as the BigBad despite it being presented in the film as a surprise twist.
* {{Troperiffic}}: Right to the name "''[[{{Pun}} Full Throttle]]''". (Probably completely intentional.)
* WitnessProtection: [[spoiler:Madison's]] plan is to steal the list of people currently in the witness protection program and sell it to the highest bidder among several criminal groups. It turns out [[spoiler:Dylan]] is one of the names on the list due to [[spoiler:turning in evidence against Seamus after witnessing him murdering someone.]]
* WoundedGazelleGambit: The opening has the Angles rescuing Ray Carter who later talks of having suffered a few broken ribs. After he gets the "data rings," Carter is heading out and Bosley tosses his keys over which Carter reaches up to grab easily. Both Alex and Natalie see he shows no signs whatsoever of any pain and realize Carter was faking the injuries which means he was in on this whole thing. They congratulate Bosley for the great bluff to figure it out...and he's completely confused as he had no inkling Carter wasn't hurt and was honestly just tossing the guys the keys.
