I watched
Magic Mike really late in a second run cut-rate cinema because the trailer had me thinking it was a ditsy mainstream rom-com, especially with Channing Tatum and Matthew McConaughey in it baring butt to a pop tune.
Turns out that was a pretty cleverly cut trailer and that Steven Soderbergh was at the helm, so it had to have *some* artistic merit, even if it were only as substantial as the G-strings that kept these male strippers within the last realms of decency.
For what it's worth, the movie had its moments but I was taken aback with Cody Horn, an actress I'm not familiar with. Unremarkable in stature and appeal, she was piss poor to the point of distraction. How can a girl who looked like this and acted in a role like this get cast as Channing Tatum's romantic interest in a wide-release picture?
