Review of Magic Mike (2012) by Sujit O — 24 Dec 2013
Steven Soderbergh is one of my favourite directors and his movies may not be the most insightful movies but the watchability of his movies from the ocean series to the latest side effects is highly impressive. One great thing about his movies which is true for Magic Mike too are the soundtracks. His soundtracks play such an important role in his directions and its something which is great to see in a movie or atleast for me.
The movie being about male strippers is pretty hard to watch at times but seeing into their problems being in a such a profession and how different characters see these strippers as in bright daylight as is quite an eye opener.
Channing Tatum is actually quite a good actor except at certain key moments such as the end where he fails to give his important monologue with impact.
Its certainly a very different kind of movie and for Soderbergh fans go on and watch it!
