By Bob Bloom I don’t mean to sound dismissive, but “Magic Mike XXL” is what it is: A fantasy for women who want to get excited over sexy and sculpted bodies and wish they were on screen instead of in the theater. The movie reunites Channing Tatum with his fellow strippers from the first film. Three years have passed, and Tatum’s Mike has left the group and started his own business. But his life is unsatisfactory, so when he gets a chance to hook up with his pals again to attend a male stripper convention in Myrtle Beach, he jumps back onto the stage.
