Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Magic Mike is a 2012 dramedy written by Reid Carolin and directed by Steven Soderbergh, starring Channing Tatum and based on his year working as a male stripper."Magic" Mike Lane (Tatum) is an ambitious, but financially struggling, working various odd jobs to make ends meet. Among them is his job as a male stripper at the Xquisite Strip Club, working under his demanding but charismatic boss Dallas (Matthew McConaughey), who has grander visions of his own for his business. When Mike meets Adam (Alex Pettyfer), an aimless college dropout with a surprising talent for stripping himself, he takes the young man under his wing, but their relationship quickly grows complicated as jealousies and potential criminal activity threaten both of their livelihoods.Also appearing in the ensemble cast are Joe Manganiello, Matt Bomer, Olivia Munn, Kevin Nash, Adam Rodriguez, Gabriel Iglesias, and Riley Keough.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The film, a big financial and critical success lauded for being a rare major studio release that casually objectified the male form in a way pop culture usually doesn't, easily went on to launch a multimedia franchise. A sequel, Magic Mike XXL, was released in 2015, with a third film, Magic Mike's Last Dance, following in 2023. In addition to the sequels, it also inspired a Las Vegas stage production, Magic Mike Live, and a short-lived reality show on HBO Max, Finding Magic Mike, about the casting of said attraction. A Broadway musical based on the film was reportedly in the works at one point as well, but has since been put the shelf with no clear plan of it happening.Compare Hustlers, a genderflipped Distaff Counterpart version of the movie that's also based on the real life story of strip club employees. See The Full Monty which is similar to Magic Mike but set in northern England and mixed with Flashdance.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

The Obstructive Love Interest | |
| Magic Mike / int_154f340 | comment |
The Obstructive Love Interest: Brooke fits this trope perfectly. She spends most of the movie disapproving of Mike's lifestyle and trading barbs with him about it. Only at the end of the film when Mike has quit stripping do they hook up. Of course unlike most examples of the trope, she at least has the justification of already having a boyfriend for the majority of the story. | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
| Magic Mike / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: The trailers made the movie look more like a Romantic Comedy with a lot of stripping. There is plenty of Fanservice in there, but the film quickly turns into a cynical look at how empty Mike's life is - and how he struggles to escape from it. In fact, the sequel fulfills this promise more than the original. | |

Cluster F-Bomb: To be specific, there's over 150 uses of the word, and since the stripping scenes have little to no dialogue, there are some scenes with a lot of them crammed in there, along with some other words. The entire construction scene near the beginning is a good example. | |

Affably Evil | |
| Magic Mike / int_537dd8fe | comment |
Affably Evil: Dallas. 'Evil' is probably too strong a term, but reading between the lines over the film makes it pretty clear that his so-called boys are just props and meat to make money for him, and whatever caring he has comes second to his financial concerns (Affably Greedy?). Case in point: basically telling Mike he's trapped in the male stripping business and instantly replacing him with Adam when he does leave at the end. | |

Although, he doesn't appear to learn much from the experience, and Mike probably won't be around to bail him out next time, so it may be subverted. | |

Going Commando: Joanna's Establishing Character Moment is her telling Mike she'll have to go commando because he ripped her panties the previous night. | |

Color Wash | |
| Magic Mike / int_e394c5d | comment |
Color Wash: All the outdoor scenes are really orange, both to sell the Florida setting and make a stronger contrast with the dark, neon-lit nightclub and strip club scenes. | |

Very Loosely Based on a True Story | |
| Magic Mike / int_e4b69188 | comment |
Very Loosely Based on a True Story: The film is inspired by Channing Tatum's real life experience as a male stripper in Miami when he was just eighteen years old and the character of Adam was inspired by it however everything else about the film was fiction. | |

My Sister Is Off-Limits | |
| Magic Mike / int_fb56b948 | comment |
My Sister Is Off-Limits: Seemingly averted. Adam asks Mike if he's interested in Brooke and teases him about it but doesn't seem to care either way if Mike's interested in her romantically. | |

| Magic Mike / int_fda23a3b | comment |
Spear Counterpart: The Players Club has striking similarities in storyline, character archetypes, and ending (for the main characters at least). And it was very much tongue in cheek. | |
