this movie irritated me so much. It was marketed as complete fluff and that's what I (and my friends) were expecting when we went in. We ended up TOTALLY depressed at the end. Big bunch of dnw. The only way I'd watch it again is if they cut out all the poorly-written and poorly-acted "plot" crap and extended the stripping scenes.

That is such a bummer to hear. Not that I wouldn't have expected some serious stuff to work it's way in there in on the side, but nobody was going to that movie primarily for drama.

LOL, that's like bitching about "The Full Monty" because it was about economic depression. Welcome to an adult movie - and I don't mean the stripping. ;-)

So adult movies are full of crappy acting and boring plotlines? Good to know.

That doesn't address what I said at all, does it? I didn't mention quality; I simply pointed out a storyline generally has more than getting naked (if it's not porn).

So are you disagreeing because you misunderstood me, or just to be contrary?

It was marketed as a slightly humorous and raunchy look at the life of male strippers with a sidenote of a relationship between Channing Tatum's character and some blonde chick. It turned out to be a rather depressing story about one man continually failing to make his dreams come true and another destroying himself through drugs, alcohol, and women. Stripping was at a minimum, self-destruction was at a max. You can darn well be annoyed if you bought a ticket to something that wasn't what was advertised.

So - you spend money based on an advertisement, refuse to read reviews, then complain you didn't get your money's worth? You said it yourself - you saw it based on HOW IT WAS MARKETED. Not on what it was actually about, which would have been easy enough to look up (and free, I might add - if you can get online to reply to me, you can get online to read a couple of reviews).

I still don't see the gripe, sorry.
