Based on fact, the film stars Jonathan Aube as hunky naif Chad Patterson, fresh from graduate school but lured by big money and sleazy opportunities afforded by Chippendales, where the lust of women is big business and seething grudges between the owner (Shelley Malil) and an untrustworthy choreographer (Peter Nevargic) spill over into homicidal conspiracies. Too much of the film plays like a poor man's Boogie Nights, with beefcake morons wasting away as temptation takes its toll. But the key performances of Malil and Nevargic are crisp and interesting, and the dance-floor action never stalls. --Tom Keogh
