100 times better then Magic Mike


And I say this as a woman. The only thing I enjoyed in Magic Mike was Matthew McConaughey's abs. The Full Monty had its flaws (Gary was an awful father), but it was far more relatable and significantly more fun.



Its something you'll get used to a mental mind *beep* can be nice!

He clearly loved his son though, despite being quite an irresponsible father and person.

I think it's good that the characters weren't all perfect though. It adds more realism.

1000 times better than Magic Mike. If you're basing it solely on eye candy, Magic Mike wins, hands down. But you have to suffer through a terrible movie to get to the candy.

I loved The Full Monty! Hilarious and heartwarming at the same time. Even if I did have to turn on the captions to understand what they were saying most of the time.
