Our take

In case you thought Showgirls and Striptease were the last word on stripping, Soderbergh’s slyly subversive beefcake melodrama peels off another layer. Starring a perfect Channing Tatum, the film reveals the hopes and fears of sensitive male dancers who dare to dream big in Recession-era America.
