get sucked in by the preview then endure a hoaky morality play

oh boy . . . mumble mumble in the big bad jungle... oh lord I really hate Steven Soderberg, I was surprised seeing the preview that he'd taken this story on, and didn't think that much of it, the preview was so, inviting! but the problem with him is that you get a little indie syle but pure Hollywood schlock content POV and if he could even turn the subject of stripping into such dreary storytelling ... well the effect is that I will be certain not to ever see another SS movie. I mean this guy's stuff is as insulting to the brain as that of any schlockmeister that's ever worked.

eg (spoiler)

and when you fear your bro might be going on a big sleep from which he might never wake up... don't call 911, it's time for "the big confrontation" that makes it all so meaningful... "I SEE YOU!" not enough dirty dancing and I'm sorry but the thing about SS is that you get a little style and you get pure Hollywood substance of the classic vomit inducing insult to the intelligence mumble mumble ... Oh I just hate this guy I don't care what is dangled before my craven peepers ... I won't see another film by this guy... hell no. if I want my intelligence insulted ... I mean... there has got to be a better way...

I did like the young actor who played Adam who turned in a nice li'l performance. Channing Tatum, Matthew Mc and the rest of em... you can have... but that is the one star in my one star review... it goes to that beautiful young guy who is actually a decent actor cause ... nobody else delivered much of anything...

Alex Pettyfer, good job Alex!
