User Reviews

It's not about male strippers, it's about greed.

I wish this movie wasn't known as being about male strippers, because I feel that isn't the focus at all-which sounds strange I know since this movie highlights the lives of the makers of the historical "Chippendales" male stripper revue. I had the chance to see this quite awhile ago and what I took away from it had nothing to do with buff men shaking their -well-you get the point.

This story is about greed. It's about the slow disintegration and corruption of a human being(steve bannerjee) who had the world at his fingetips and let it all go to become a slave to money, power, greed, hate and paranoia.

This is a true story of a guy that plotted to kill former workers because they wanted to make a living doing the same thing he did.It really drives home the point of how money and power can make a person crazy. This is a true story and I'm sure anyone who watches this will want to shower when their done because the story is a sleezy one but it isn't a lightweight movies about male strippers, its more of a character study of a sad and pitiful human being. The film had its flaws, it did drag at times, certain parts were almost unreasonably boring(it IS a tv movie)-the only thing I can say to justify watching it is I like character studies and this is definetly that. I think it should probebly have been done a bit better, script was a bit weak. Nonethelss, it succeeded in its casting, it was very well acted-forget about the men dancing and shaking about and concentrate on the story of what greed and money can make of a person.
