RJG Rating- 85
Mike ,a male stripper introduces his new friend into the business.
Starring- Channing Tatum,Alex Pettyfer,Cody Horn
Director- Steven Soderbergh
This is a complete Channing Tatum powered movie.From the start to
finish hes in control of the movie.He might not be the greatest actor in
the business ,but hes very convincing.All the supporting actors are
good and help Channing push the movie forward.Alex Pettyfer was average
,Matthew McConaughey was good.
The story for Magic Mike isnt
much different from that of movies like ,women themed strip dancing
movies.Its sort of predictable and there are not many twists.But in no
way is the story dull.The story captures most point of views of the
business.The story of 2 men ,one an amateur and the other nearing the
end his of career ,was an interesting contrast.
Direction by
Steven was excellent.He crafted a movie with a simple story into an
interesting movie that keeps both male & female audience engaged.The
movie had a balanced dose of comedy ,drama ,dance and a bit of romance
too.
Overall,Magic Mike is a fun and enjoyable movie for the adult audience.
Acting- 4/5
