Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Roger Ebert (5,190) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 27 Jun 2012

Selling anyone the right to touch your genital area for a couple of bucks is not a good way to build self-esteem…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 27 Jun 2012

The process is called acting, and the man (Tatum) in the title role of Steven Soderbergh's flashy, not-so-trashy entertainment does it so well…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Marjorie Baumgarten (1,950) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 27 Jun 2012

Soderberg enhances the meager storyline with some creative camerawork (again shot by himself under the pseudonym Peter Andrews)…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Steven Rea (1,872) for Philadelphia Inquirer (3,920) on 27 Jun 2012

An odd and entertaining mix of backstage melodrama, indie verite, and Showgirls kitsch, the usual gender stereotypes are upturned…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By John Semley (121) for Slant Magazine (8,298) on 27 Jun 2012

It's as if Soderbergh expects the film to mostly resolve itself, rounded out by the asses-in-the-seats appeal of the material, rote thematic…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Sandie Angulo Chen (751) for Common Sense Media (4,943) on 27 Jun 2012

Cheerful stripper comedy is too sexy, mature for kids…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Jeff Meyers (379) for Metro Times (Detroit, MI) (691) on 27 Jun 2012

Strange as it may sound, Magic Mike's male stripper money shots are less a celebration of Tatum and company's impressive pecs and abs and more…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Mark Dujsik (2,093) for Mark Reviews Movies (2,037) on 27 Jun 2012

If the final act of Magic Mike does become more of a straightforward morality tale, it's not without having established the particulars of…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Peter Travers (3,602) for Rolling Stone (4,035) on 27 Jun 2012

Magic Mike slowly degenerates into a simplistic cautionary fable. I didn't see that coming from a sharp observer like Soderbergh…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Peter Sobczynski (1,159) for eFilmCritic.com (5,125) on 27 Jun 2012

Those weren't magic wands that those guys were holding, though many of the women at the screening I attended seemed inclined to disagree…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Dustin Putman (2,479) for TheFilmFile.com (2,314) on 27 Jun 2012

Softer than expected but more involving than some may be anticipating, Magic Mike squeaks by on its own low-key, sneakily perceptive accord…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Kenneth Turan (2,323) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 27 Jun 2012

Life, however, cannot be lived entirely on stage, and once the characters have to take off their thongs and return to their real lives, the…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Nell Minow (2,357) for Beliefnet (937) on 27 Jun 2012

What takes this out of the category of fluff is the way the story is unaffectedly located in the reality of the economic struggles of the area…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By David Medsker (361) for Bullz-Eye.com (1,091) on 27 Jun 2012

You can almost see director Steven Soderbergh at odds with himself, torn between making a mainstream film or a gritty indie, and ultimately…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Mark Ellis (362) for Schmoes Know (710) on 27 Jun 2012

I really enjoyed the movie. Solid cast, great performance by Tanning and Soderbergh's style makes you feel at ease when you shouldn't…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Dana Stevens (1,435) for Slate (2,081) on 27 Jun 2012

Half wish-fulfillment fantasy, half after-school special, Magic Mike is in many ways an unserious movie -- but like many of Soderbergh's slicker…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Manohla Dargis (1,909) for New York Times (5,786) on 27 Jun 2012

A smoothly distilled collaboration that balances Mr. Tatum's heat and charm - and ambitions that are as transparent as Mike's - with Mr…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Colin Covert (1,936) for Minneapolis Star Tribune (2,416) on 27 Jun 2012

It's a lighthearted girls' night out movie and a funhouse mirror turned on American sexual attitudes and economic anxieties…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Laura Clifford (2,742) for Reeling Reviews (4,376) on 27 Jun 2012

Tatum easily holds the screen whether's he's showing off those old hip hop moves or flustering female customers and loan officers…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 27 Jun 2012

The dramatic cop-out, like the incomplete finish of a strip-tease, is a little disappointing...But the movie has its compensations…
