Critical MeMe

Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Magic Mike (2012)

Channing Tatum brought the charm and the moves, but it could have been so much better than it was.  We were in a fairly full theater with only three (!) men in it -- one of whom was my game husband.  The women were in randy packs, shouting at the screen, but they had to quiet down because there was simply way too much time spent on the off-stage relationship crap and not enough on STRIPPING. I get that we’re supposed to see that there’s more to this guy than the stage...but dude. This should’ve let us have a bit more fun or, at the very least, given us a romance to really root for rather than one with little miss judgmental frowny-face.
