By day, Mike (Channing Tatum) makes ends meet any way he can -- handyman jobs, detailing cars or designing furniture. But nighttime is when Mike really gets to display his many talents: He's the hot headliner in an all-male revue. Mike sees potential in a 19-year-old he dubs the Kid (Alex Pettyfer), takes the teen under his wing and instructs him in the tricks of the trade. However, Mike learns there's a downside to the stripper lifestyle when it threatens his romance with the Kid's sister.

Magic Mike's sensitive direction, smart screenplay, and strong performances allow audiences to have their beefcake and eat it too.

It’s surprisingly deep for a film about men waggling their bits on stage...

The Spectator

Worth seeing? Yes. But also 'no'. But mainly 'yes'. So it's a 'yes' with some 'no' caveats. I can now see this isn't so helpful.

Irish Times

Go in search of hen-party diversions and you will be disappointed. Venture out in search of blotched, stylish pseudo-realism and you should be modestly satisfied.

Rated: 3/5

When it comes down to it, this 4K UHD edition is ideal for viewers who are curious about a different-looking experience and aren’t entirely hung up about what may or may not be included.

Deep Focus Review

As always, Soderbergh’s treatment manages to make familiar material into something that surprises us when we realize how emotionally involved we’ve become.

Rated: 3/4

I think for a movie about male dancer I was a bit disappointed in the choreography in the film.

Magic Mike succeeds in grounding the stripper persona with real human emotions. However, thanks to a couple of obnoxious secondary characters, this film follows its main character down a sad path that feels unnecessarily pathetic.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

I went in expecting nothing more than a guilty pleasure, and I was pleasantly surprised by the angle Soderbergh took, showing the gritty underbelly of an aging male stripper in a city that can be very cruel. The dances are certainly fun to watch but the entire experience left me feeling sad for everyone and the dreams that I - and the characters - know will never come to fruition, as so often happens in real life.
