这是系列的第二部了，但应该不会拍第三部，因为这是主演查宁塔图姆的自传电影，而他的脱衣舞男生涯就结束于第二部的结尾。
第一部由斯蒂芬索德伯格导演，这一部导演换人，斯蒂芬则首次掌镜。马修麦康纳也退出了，不过他的名字高频次的出现在这一部中。
本片最大的看点是肌肉壮硕的脱衣舞男们只穿一条内裤，贴着饥渴的熟妇们热舞。

影片最后有长达20多分钟的集中表演，即便在没看过男式脱衣舞表演的笔者看来，也是相当的精彩，比如这段舞蹈，模拟的是一男一女对着镜子狂舞，而实际上是两对男女，“镜子”两边的舞者要完成一系列高难度的动作，还要保持节奏一致，所以在疯狂火辣的表演之下，其实是高度的敬业精神。

敬业精神还表现在事先准备上。在我们这些外行看来，脱衣舞无非就是露肉和扭摆身体，这可能是比较低级的脱衣舞女干的事情，而本片这些有职业追求的舞男们则没这么草率，他们亲自设计主题、道具和舞蹈风格，还精心排练，投入了大量的精力做准备工作。


敬业是因为他们热爱这份工作。本片的主演查宁塔图姆在18岁的时候在坦帕的一个酒吧当过9个月的脱衣舞男，这段经历被媒体挖出来以后，经纪公司为了怎么挽回他阳光健康的形象而焦头烂额，他却大方承认了，并表示很喜欢自己的那种状态，会经常回忆那段美好的经历，如此一来影迷们反而被他的坦诚打动，迅速接受了他，并且恍然大悟他在《舞出我人生》中的精彩舞蹈并非一蹴而就，而是出于热爱和艰苦的训练。


观看本片的过程中，身体也跟着舞男们的身体有节奏的摆动，是一种很开心的体验，推荐一看。

关于美国脱衣舞行业
美国的脱衣舞从业者很多都来自模特转行。
在美国，模特行业是非常低下的职业，除非能当上顶级名模，否则与性有关的工作就是他们最好也是最多的选择。很多模特最后都沦落到去脱衣舞俱乐部工作或者去拍成人电影。
美国脱衣舞有三种：服务男人的女郎，服务女人的猛男，和服务GAY或LES的同志。

像本片这些身形完美、长相帅气的肌肉男，在脱衣舞俱乐部是永远不愁没饭吃的，来看表演的女人们可不像中国地铁口那些冷漠而匆匆的行人，不仅一个钢镚儿都不给，还用鄙夷的眼光看流浪艺人，如果艺人穿着不体面还刻意绕着走。本片中，女人们手里拿着dollar，看得高兴了就往舞男身上扔钱，10刀起步，有些富婆会扔个200多刀，这些都是小费，舞男们还有固定的时薪，最低39刀，一次表演2—4小时，一个晚上赚个1000+刀是轻轻松松的，一个月通常都有3-4万刀收入。

回顾观影当场一句话感想：一块绝好的生鲜刺身被开水煮着吃了。＝食材的浪费～



"Alright, alright, alright", something you would not hear much in this LONG and WIDELY (XXL, wink wink) expected spinoff since Dallas (the character played by McConaughey) is quickly ditched in the begging of the movie (oops) , I have finally watched this XXL tonight. Yeah! (hard for just two seconds), and "it was all right", which was my very instant feedback right after coming out of the cinema.

Don't get me wrong, it is funny, occasionally, and I laughed, occasionally and perhaps some would say, "It's a striper movie, what do you expect?" Well, first of all, it's "Male Entertainer" to address the characters professionally, accurately and consistently with the movie. Secondly, as a matter of fact, it is very ironic that this movie turns out to be rather different from what is usually expected from it, sadly in a bad way - it would be FANTASTIC if it follows the typical pattern and pace of unveiling a drama/comedy (the genre of this movie), the cinematography included. - The furniture dream did not work out for Mike in real life that he decided to reunite with the old crew (not exactly) for their perhaps-last ride to the stripping endeavour, yet shit happens along the way, but they finally made it.

Yes, the story line is as simple as that, which i'm afraid is exactly what freaks out the screenwriter. "It can't be simple like that",he/she may think. Therefore, excessive nonsense of events and dialogues are added here and there (on the road, in the van, in the living room, you name it), which makes it less Channing (lean) but more Gabriel (fluffy), if you know what i mean. In this case, the genre of this movie is distorted unfortunately, from a should-be drama/comedy to a semi-documentary/road-film.

Yes, documentary indeed, as clearly found not only in the way of story telling, yet also and especially in cinematography (use a bloody cane if you could, cut between more camera angles, drum up the magic, would you?). Somehow actually, I'm not surprised, and it can make sense if you consider that a legacy from its predecessor, directed by Steven Soderbergh who is of course the Executive Producer of the fellow spinoff. HOWEVER (a big one), IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE THAT WAY. As I couldn't help but share with my fellow viewer on the spot, "the movie feels like a fresh piece of great sashimi got boiled in water rather than served raw as righteously destined." In my two cents, a brilliant idea is shamefully not delivered to its full potential. Give it to Michael Bay, for cry out loud.

Educated by the screenplay books I've been reading, I'm lucky to come to realise it is essential to RESPECT the pattern and pace of each genre, if you are not genius enough like Quentin Tarantino to create your own, as they do make sense and work well. In this sense, I'd rather see the Magic Mike volume cheesily successful, than innovatively mediocure.

Well, to make ya all less disappointed, as said in my title of this review, the XXL was luckily saved by the last act/dance, not too bad.




To read my last review on FURY, which I'm more proud of, haha, here is the link - http://movie.douban.com/review/7161106/
   

上当了！被歌舞片嚎头和力推骗进来了。。。。

没剧情、没音乐、没舞蹈，纯粹的卖肉片，专供女供观众，如果有男人喜欢看的话，那一定是个男GAY。

片子实际就是男妓教科书，讲述的是男妓的包装技巧及行业模式的最高境界，就象罗胖子卖傻逼锤子手机一样：

1、卖鸡很赚钱，那我也赶快卖；
2、小鸡没出前，骂别人的不如我；
3、鸡鸡不如人，那就卖情怀！反正二逼多，挨个骗也忙不过来；
4、鸡鸡卖不动，就速度食言降价！第一次不要脸，那是不要脸，但次数多了，就是个人风格！风格就是品牌啊，知道不？？

本片丝毫没光猪六壮士 The Full Monty (1997)的内涵和黑色幽默且档次低下。
英国土逼破落户们自300年前始就看不起这些北美流窜犯是有原因的。

这部电影应算作R级别吧，看到最后表演一幕，绝对是最火爆的，我就像是从封建时代走出来的女人看着现代的三级片，虽然不到瞠目结舌但脸红耳赤是多少还有点。我不太理解的是，为什么美国女人会愿意让陌生男人抚摸自己，把自己搬来搬去，还高兴的给他钱，竟然还大把撒钱，好像钱不是自己挣得，就是为了让受到感情伤的自己片刻满足还有男人喜欢自己?但还是因为给他钱去做这些，我真不知道这是件高兴的事儿还是令人沮丧的事。说远了，距离美国人民的生活太远，了解不到美国生活里真的会发生电影里的情节。
没有主要故事情节，只有为了走下去，没有任何意义的对话。开头的20分钟，罗利啰嗦，就像小学生为了完成作文而废话连篇，“要是再不跳舞，我就不看了。”我心里想。anyway，看舞男的诱惑大胆的舞姿，也算是开开眼。当软片看看，我们国家没有的东西。
