Yes, I am still mopping up the drool pouring out of my mouth after seeing this movie.  Ladies - SEE THIS!  It's a bit crass and lewd, but it's so worth the view. 

I enjoyed the movie even though the story line was only so-so.  It was engaging enough even without my female scenses screaming "WANT".  It made me want to grab Christy, LeeAnna, Jocey and my other chickies and go out to a male stripper review.  Okay, okay, very not appropriate, but I'm working on being honest and, well, that is honest. I liked the male strippers - there - I said it (well, wrote it anyway). 

Seriously, I do think women will enjoy this movie.  Guys... not so much.  You may pick up some good moves though.  I did enjoy the dancing.  It was entertaining for sure.

Favorite Scene:  Adam's first attempt at stripping
