Channing Tatum Adds Stripping To His Resume In Magic Mike
Just as audiences were getting over the fact that Channing Tatum was capable of doing comedy, director Steven Soderbergh gave us Magic Mike, which showed us that the multi-talented actor can also dance and strip, and surprisingly well.
Of course, anyone who saw Tatum in Step Up knows that he can dance and anyone who knows about the actor’s past knows that he used to strip. But in Magic Mike he brings the two worlds together and man does he kill it up on stage.
While Magic Mike may not be the best film of the year, or even close to it, Tatum is impeccable in the lead role and easily steals the show. He’s completely at home on stage and his charisma, charm and performance skills are superb.
If you haven’t had the chance yet to catch Tatum busting out his moves, check out the clip below.
Is That Johnny Depp In 21 Jump Street?
Sure, we all knew Johnny Depp would have a cameo in 21 Jump Street, but did anyone know which character he was until it was revealed at the end?
Going into the film I knew that Depp had a small role, but right up until the end I was puzzled and confused, I couldn’t figure out when, where, or how he would show up. When the reveal finally came, it was a shock not only to me, but to most of the audience members in my theatre.
21 Jump Street was throughly enjoyable and still stands as my favorite comedy of the year, hands down. There were truly a ton of very funny and laugh out loud moments, but for me, the highlight was the reveal of Johnny Depp, who I had been searching for the whole film. Little did I realize, we had already seen him multiple times in earlier scenes, we just didn’t realize it. Or at least I didn’t.
Depp isn’t the only surprise happening here though, we also realize that two of the bikers are actually undercover cops. It’s a scene full of surprises and the fact that Depp plays the part to perfection, before going down in a blaze of glory, makes it even more enjoyable.
“You’re an amazing actor man,” says Jonah Hill to Depp. We agree Mr. Hill, we agree.
