Jen Yamato The Daily Beast Not only uses Ginuwine's 1996 thirst anthem "Pony" to great effect-it also casts Ginuwine as one of Chocolate City's shining stars, grinding for dollars to his own song. Jun 2, 2015 Full Review Martin Tsai Los Angeles Times The make-it-rain clichs are abundant and Jean-Claude La Marre's direction is pedestrian ... May 21, 2015 Full Review VyceVictus Birth.Movies.Death. As opposed to the sharp cinematography and direction of Steven Soderbergh and his disciple Gregory Jacobs, Chocolate City goes for more intimately hazy and lingering POV shots. Feb 6, 2020 Full Review Kam Williams Baret News A derivative, estrogen-fueled, overcoming-the-odds saga strictly recommended for females interested in seeing sepia-skinned Adonises gyrate while disrobing to mind-numbing disco music. Rated: 2/4 May 24, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Magic Mike's parody. Without the satire. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member 0/5! Same as Magic Mike part 1 and same storyline! But Channing matched the role way more :) Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member what is this? ez a black version of 'magic mike: one and 2 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Terrible! Don't waste your time or money. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Boring. The dancing is remedial, they just do the same body roll over and over. There was nothing sexy about it despite the hot bodies. They rag on the real Magic Mike and throw around the "N" word. The worst part was the over preachy sermen that makes you feel sleazy for even watching the movie. Save your money not worth your time. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Very low budget film.....the story was very predictable and lacked content!!!! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
