A male perspective. Forty minutes into Magic Mike - I thought -Tatum should bend over and everyone involved in this film should kiss his butt for making it rain in their pockets with this terrible sequel. Tatum is having a mid-lifeA male perspective. Forty minutes into Magic Mike - I thought -Tatum should bend over and everyone involved in this film should kiss his butt for making it rain in their pockets with this terrible sequel. Tatum is having a mid-life crisis. He wants to recapture his youth. He can rest easy. We see he still has the moves
in the last twenty bareable minutes of “so you think you can strip." But when the motion stops and they open their mouths - it’s unbearable. Especially the flirtatious banter between Tatum and Heard while he’s taking a piss. Rumor is the “actors” starved themselves - quite evident in their very thin performances of their even thinner characters. As for the women - they chew the scenery. Twitch is a nice addition - he’s a great dancer. But Michael Strahan - he’s not. ABC and Disney using sex to get ratings for “Live with” - times have changed. It will be hard to get it up a third time - may I suggest a silent movie with the guys using their g-strings as sling shots as naked and afraid they traverse the wild dunes of Fire Island - from Ocean Beach to the Pines- looking for Pettyfer and McConaughey. And as for Hollywood grosses - imagine ( and who didn’t !) a tape of Joe and Sofia on their honeymoon night - Watch out Jurassic World !… Expand

This was the utter worst piece of trash I have ever seen!!! I saw the first one and thought it was 'marginally OK," but this one has no redeeming value. If you're going to see some skin, which most people are, then go see another movie andThis was the utter worst piece of trash I have ever seen!!! I saw the first one and thought it was 'marginally OK," but this one has no redeeming value. If you're going to see some skin, which most people are, then go see another movie and then sneak in for the last 10 mins of Magic Mike. Unless you're a teenage girl or a gay man who hasn't gotten laid in 10 yrs, then you should SKIP this movie. AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL… Expand

I approached the sequel to “Magic Mike” expecting fun, fun, fun and guys with fantastic bodies shaking their junk and booties all over the place. “Magic Mike XXL” has the guys, with fantastic bodies, shaking their all but it isn’t fun, fun,I approached the sequel to “Magic Mike” expecting fun, fun, fun and guys with fantastic bodies shaking their junk and booties all over the place. “Magic Mike XXL” has the guys, with fantastic bodies, shaking their all but it isn’t fun, fun, fun but boring, boring, boring!

There are too many unnecessary storylines, written by Reid Carolin, while the direction by Gregory Jacobs and the choreography by Alison Faulk, have the guys in gay bars--but none, of course, are gay--straight bars, a whore house, at a strippers competition and in a Southern woman’s house filled with divorcees and wine.

The first movie was based somewhat on Channing Tatum’s life before he became a star and this is a Hollywood movie which seems to have little basis in truth. The choreography is polished, each of the strippers have a ‘back’ story and at the very beginning Mathew McConaughey’s is explained but he is missed.

The men besides Tatum are: Matt Bomer, Joe Manganiello, Kevin Nash, Adam Rodriguez, Donald Glover, Stephen “tWitch Boss, Michael Strahan, plus a few extras, certainly have the bodies to make guys in the audience make a resolution to hit the gym--right after the July 4th weekend! They also have the dance moves down but the editing, costumes and most of the dances are just ‘off’ a bit enough to make their scenes distracting.

Jada Pinkett Smith takes McConaughey’s place as the emcee of the boy’s show and has a fling with Tatum in the past. Amber Heard, as Andie MacDowell’s daughter who is the Southern woman hostess and the rare woman who can take XXL Manganiello, is the new love interest for Tatum. Gabriel Iglesias, as the only gay guy with the group not as a dancer until he enters in Carmen Miranda drag to win a contest but is the driver of a truck for the guys and has a bad accident closing his eyes while driving and all the guys are high on ‘molly’. Elizabeth Banks has a few minutes on screen as the competition’s director and as an ex of Jada--don’t ask!

As with most sequels “Magic Mike XXL” doesn’t stack up to the original, is not as sexy though there are more dances and men, and not as much fun--not one man or women in the audience threw dollar bills at the screen!… Expand

This movie did not have a story. There was no dancing expect for the ending. I did feel the characters did try there best to have a good movie but it fell short.

There was HALF the amount of dancing as in the first. The best part was the very end with the "Strip-off" that's it. Waste of $$. Please...don't go there with a XXXL please… Expand
