Magic Mike

Steven Soderbergh directs this comedy drama set in the world of male strip clubs.

Inspired by experiences from the early days in the career of the film's star, actor Channing Tatum, the film follows Mike (Tatum) as he takes a young dancer called The Kid (Alex Pettyfer) under his wing and tutors him in the arts of all-night partying, picking up women and making easy money.

As his latest recruit's popularity with the ladies soars, however, Mike's interest in The Kid's sister Brooke (Cody Horne), which at first seems to be welcomed, takes an unexpected knock when she begins to question his hedonistic lifestyle.
