Eleven years ago we met Magic Mike Last Dance Lane and his band of Miami strippers, including talents like Alex Pettyfer, Matthew McConaughey, Matt Bomer, Joe Manganiello, and many more. It has been a roller coaster of a trilogy.
Its title film Magic Mike defied all expectations by showing the audience that they were not in for a fun ride of male stripping but in fact a serious and depressing look at working class men who get tied up in a world of money and power.

Magic Mike’s Last Dance Review: Mike XXL, turned the tables and gave audiences a party film ready to dive into what they thought the people wanted to see.
What to me, always felt like a series that had difficulty balancing its themes and its fun, has landed on its feet for Magic Mike’s Last Dance creating a perfect final chapter to a trilogy that has always been growing along the way.
Maxandra Mendoza (Salma Kayek) meets Mike Lane (Channing Tatum) while he is bartending at her charity event. Upon finalizing her divorce and feeling like she has lost a part of herself, she asks Mike (who she learns from a friend used to be a stripper) if he would be able to give her just one dance. What happens after can only be experienced because there are no words, says Max.

He masterfully creates tension among all of the characters as the film reaches its conclusion
