An average movie

I can't say I was really dying to see this flick but since the previous installment turned out to be so much more enjoyable than I expected, I thought I might as well check out this sequel. Well, it is the perfect example why, even if a movie becomes a box-office success,  you don't always need a sequel. I mean, it was not awful and it was pretty obvious that they just wanted to have fun this time around but, as a result, the dark edge displayed in 'Magic Mike' was completely gone but it was exactly what made this movie interesting in the first place. To make things worse, they went for a road trip which much be the laziest gimmick ever in screenwriting. To hide the weakness of the whole story (or total lack of it), they added a whole bunch of famous actresses in some very small parts but all their characters were just really poorly developed and it felt like a wasted opportunity. At least, most of the dances were really quite impressive but pretty much everything else was rather tedious to behold.  Anyway, to conclude, even though I have seen worse, it was still a rather useless sequel and I don't think it is really worth a look, except if you are a die-hard fan of the genre.
