It is always a problem when a movie is marketed one way, and then clearly is not that movie. This is a very dark movie, not being sold that way. More importantly, it simply was not entertaining. The "fun" parts were not fun, and the "heavy" parts did not really work, largely because we do not care about these characters. Most of the "name" strippers could easily have been given to chippendale dancers, as the actors had no parts to play. I am a Channing Tatum fan, but he struggles with a weakly written character who must play at being totally disengaged from other people, but mainly succeeds in being disengaged from the audience. Even what should be spectacular "strip" scenes are edited and shot in a way which makes them curiously uninteresting, and the female audience members are wholly trivialized. I really wanted to like this movie, and I really did not
Cons no empathy for characters, lame ending, weak performances
No, I do not recommend this movie.
