♪ (Goldfrap, "Ooh La la") ♪

Ooh, he's such a stud.

♪ (Goldfrap, "Ooh La La") ♪

Ooh! Guns.

I like it so far.

♪ Switch me on ♪

Why don't they want
to show the best part?

♪ Turn me up ♪

It's a trailer. (chuckles)

Ooh!

What's he doing?

Aah!

Oh! (laughing)

(saw buzzes)

You sure I'm not watching a sex video?

Okay, now this I like.

Oh, Chippendales boys.

Whoa.

(announcer) I got a little treat
for y'all tonight.

We gonna see if he's still
got some magic in that Mike.

She said, "Magic Mike?"

Magic Mike.

(Richie) Tomorrow, we start the pilgrimage

to Myrtle Beach for the convention.

- (woman go wild)
- Whoa!

Oh, yes.

(Mike) I mean,
if this really is our last ride,

what if we make up some new routines?

(announcer) Are you ready
to be... worshipped?

I am!

(announcer) Are you ready to be exalted?

Yes.

I'll watch it.

- (Mike) What are we?
- We're like healers or something.

Healers? No, you're not healers.

Stand back and help me take off my shirt!

This is hot. I like this.

Aah, you make me jealous.

I wish I were young again.

Wow.

Oh, yeah.

It's not bro time, it's show time.

Are you guys ready?

- Oh-ho-ho!
- (audience chanting)

(laughing)

Any more?

The guy's got a body
like a brick spithouse.

(laughing) He's really hot!

(movie reel clicks)

(Finebros) So did you know
what that movie is?

No.

It's something I won't go see.

It's Magic Mike.

Magic Mike, number whatever.

And I didn't see whatever number one was.

- (Finebros, coyly) Sure you didn't.
- (laughing) I didn't!

(Finebros) It's called Magic Mike XXL.

What does "XXL" stand for?

(Finebros) "Extra Extra Large."

Which is large? (cracking up)

(Finebros) What does the movie
seem to be about?

Guys! I haven't seen
a guy movie in a long time.

A strip club for women.

A travelling group
of Chippendales-type strippers.

Young men giving ladies what they want

and making money off of it.

It's an old history, strippin'.

(Finebros) Does it look like a good movie?

It depends on what you're looking for.

Not to me.

I'm not that interested in the buff,
you know, the buffy thing

and the squirting of juices
all over the place.

No, I'm not interesting
to see guys... (chuckles)

taking off their clothes.

I can do it in my bedroom.

Guys with their shirts off,
guys buff, muscles...

It looks good.

I'm sure it's entertaining,

but the idea that these four guys

are working as male dancers,

who knows where that could lead them.

(Finebros) Get excited because we have
a picture of the strippers

from the movie to show you.

Oh boy.

My heart! My beating heart be still!

Oh, hurry, hurry, before I pass out.

(Finebros) Here they are.

(curiously) Hmm...

They're cute.

There's not much to ya.

They'd get me in trouble!
I'm a good grandma.

It's a bit too muscly for me.

I'm a more gymnastic type.

(buttons snaps)

- (Finebros) Oh!!
- (manly grunt)

(humming steamy tune)
♪ Dun, dun, dun, dun ♪

♪ Duuun! Uuuh! ♪

That hurt my back. (cracking up)

(Finebros) And which one is the hottest?

I'd start at Tatum.

Channing Tatum's
probably the best one for me.

I mean, he seems really dumb,

but he is handsome
and the ladies do seem to like him.

I would much prefer one with silver hair.

I have to go with the older guy
with the greying beard.

You can see he has maturity,
but he still has a studly young body

which I wish I hadn't given up.

Everybody.

- (Finebros) You love 'em all?
- Yes.

- (Finebros laughs)
- I really, really do.

(Finebros) So what are your thoughts
that a big Hollywood movie

is all about a group of male strippers?

Yeah, that's great.
It doesn't even need a plot.

I would've never thought
that it would've occurred.

It wouldn't have happened ten years ago,

it would not happen
at all in black and white.

They'll make movies
about anything nowadays.

It's disappointing that people
aren't looking to aspire

to greater things.

I think it was due because
all the films that deal with

female strippers over the years.

It's a nice change of pace for women
to be able to see guys half-naked.

(Finebros) So in the terms
of movies about stripping,

usually it's women strippers.

But here's a movie
that completely reverses that

and makes it all about the men strippers.

What do you think about that?

That might not be such a bad idea,
all things considered.

It's flipping the coin.

I think the women are just now showing

that they can be just as stupid as men.

I'm sorry there's an audience for that.

Well, I think that's great
because it should be equal.

Well, if you're gonna do one, do 'em both.

We wanna see it too.

I think it's okay because there's
a lot of cougars out there like me.

I think it's good.

I think we need to be objectified
once in while.

(Finebros) Have you ever
been to a strip club?

No.

No!

- (Finebros) Never?
- No!

I'm not going to admit
to anything in the past.

Yes, I have.

I was a cadet on a ship.

I was 18. We have fun.

I did go to a bachelor party

where there was mud wrestling
and you could pay for lap dancing.

Yes, they were dancing

and then we were putting
some money in their... you know.

They mainly wanted you
to put money in their underpants

and if you didn't put money in

and they didn't like
that you didn't put money in,

then they'd let you know it.

So it was a bit, you know, money grubbing.

(Finebros) What is the appeal
of places like strip clubs?

What is it that draws people to them?

Oh, curiosity.

The people who are not happy
with their life as they see it,

in my opinion.

They may be very happy
with their life as they see it.

A secret desire to do the same thing.

There's an erotic, sexual
message that is alluring.

The more you see them,
the more you want them,

but you know you can't have 'em.

So it just makes the attraction
just go on and on and on.

I can understand men going to see women,

and they go 'cause they get
companionship or they get food.

You know, they feed them
and there's food and there's women.

But I don't know why--
that it's got much of appeal to women.

(Finebros) So back to this movie,
this is actually a sequel.

Oh, really? (laughs)

Could I get it, like, On Demand?

(Finebros) And in that movie,
the main stripper

decided to stop stripping.

Now it's the sequel and Magic Mike
is back with his crew

to do one final blowout show
at a stripper's convention.

- And that's the plot.
- (laughing)

(Finebros) What do you think of that plot?

Pretty thin.

There has to be more to it
than just guys getting up there

and shaking it.

I'd like it if it wasn't one last show.

I mean, why does it have
to be one last show?

It's a fun sort of plot,

but, unfortunately, it falls
into a lascivious way of life.

I go to the movies every week.

I watch movies for entertainment.

I don't watch them to critique them
or to tear them apart.

It's entertainment.

It's something that people
are willing to see, wanna see,

and I don't have any problems with it.

(Finebros) Finally, will you see
the new Magic Mike?

No.

Oh, absolutely not. (laughs)

I'm not going there.
Good Christian boy.

I'll be watching it, yeah.

Yes, yes, yes.

No. I have better things to do.

Absolutely not.

I would not go see it.

If I want to see somebody naked,

I wanna see a woman!

I'd probably get around to it.

It's probably a fun afternoon.

It's good, clean American fun.

(Finebros) Are you going to see this mov--

- Yes!
- (Finebros laughs)

Definitely.

I'm going alone.
I'm not taking my grandkids.
