मैजिक माइक का आखिरी डांस

Safe to say this is the worst Magic Mike movie. It's boring more often than not and plays it way too safe. Women are more naked in a burlesque show than these men were. Why exactly is this rated R? Today's music videos are more R-rated than this. I would say the most entertaining scene was the lap dance Channing Tatum gives Salma Hayek but other than that most of the movie is just her whining about the show they're going to put on and when the show finally comes it's not nearly as exciting as it should be. I know plenty will say it but I'd rather this movie had been a Step Up movie and them just left Magic Mike at the sequel. Compared to the other two it was just an unfun ride. Also on a side note when she's going through the different types of men that "women want" a CEO that pays women more than men? I thought the goal was to be equal allegedly? And how about a man with a puppy! Men have dogs all the time how about a man that puts the seat down or does the dishes. Anyway unlike the other two I'll never see this one again.

My wife and I saw this on opening night at the movie theater. Surprisingly, it was a decent crowd with mainly couples. The beginning was o'k , the ending was pretty good but the middle was absolutely borrrring!!!! It will almost put you to sleep. There was no chemistry , no character development and not much going on. Unlike the first two , Mike had rapport with his dance partners , this one had nothing. The dance partners were too old to be a stripping act so that would not work, but they could have come up with something better. This will probably be the end of this one, as I'm assuming this is going to get a thumbs down - all the way around.

I'll admit I've never watch the first two Magic Mike films, but after seeing this I guess I wasn't missing much. I took interest in this film cause Salma Hayek is in this, and she always seems to make anything better, but does she here, not quite.

Now don't get me wrong, Channing Tatum and Salma Hayek have proving that they very talented actors, and shown that they are more than just pretty faces. But they just don't click with each other, I felt Tatum had better chemistry with Sandra Bullock in The Lost City. Nothing for me really jumps out, the acting is null and void. Two new characters are amusing, but really serve no purpose here. Now dance scenes are okay, but the rest of the movie is not.

Channing Is still an incredibly talented however This one has a completely different vibe to magic Mike and magic Mike xxl , the plot felt very meh and despite the dancers being very talented there was a lack of any personality from them we really didn't get to know them at all , it really needed characters like Dallas Tarzan and big dick Richie. Making magic Mikes last dance more mature and thoughtful hasn't really worked the dancing and stripping is a lot tamer it's no where as sexy or as entertaining as the previous films in the franchise.mikes last dance scene was wow but even this isn't enough to save the entire film . Overall it's a slow burner that doesn't feel authentic to the original movie I think there were betters ways to have shown Mike had matured and no longer strips ,replaced the gyrating and air humping for modern expressive dance and ballet . If your after the magic that the previous films have you won't find it here .

It's been almost eight years since the release of the Magic Mike XXL, which, in my opinion, gave the story the closure it needed. I enjoyed the first two films, minus the cheesy stripper dancing, because they gave you a feel for the lives these men lead as opposed to solely focusing on the stripping aspect. It was surprisingly engrossing. With Magic Mike's Last Dance, it does almost the opposite by focusing solely on Channing Tatum and Salma Hayek's phony romantic plot device as an excuse for Magic Mike to put on one final show, setting the film into a complete fantasy.

Now, don't get me wrong. I usually love Salma Hayek, but her acting in this film was terrible. I did not believe her character for one second and some of the lines she delivers are just awkward to watch. I was not buying her and Channing Tatum's romance at all. It was almost painful at times. Everybody else does a serviceable job, but when you have leads that have zero chemistry with each other, it can be a deal breaker.

Unfortunately, because of the chosen focal point for the story, the dancing also suffers. We get a decent enough show at the end, but there is only one other dancing scene in the film. The other bits of dancing are just that. Bits because they show them training to put together the show. Not one full dance number from that first dance at the beginning, all the way to the end.

Speaking of dancing, none of the dancers have any sort of personality or even play any role in the film other than to just be there as dancers. Thus bringing us back to the issue of the central plot focusing on the wrong thing. They didn't even bring back any of the original dancers to dance or even play any part in the movie besides a cameo group video chat for 2 minutes. The film even builds it up with Mike constantly dodging their phone calls but they do nothing with it and that was probably my biggest disappointment.

The only positive thing I can say about it is the direction is well executed. The camera angles, the effects and the editing work in the films favor, but that is not enough to save it from being a bad film.

Overall, I couldn't recommend it. The first two are diamonds in the rough, and this one is a rock that sinks straight down to the bottom of the ocean. If it wasn't for Steven Soderbergh's tight direction, I would rate it lower.
