Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Smart and sardonic, Just Can't Get Enough begins with a cheeky, freeze-frame interruption of a major character's murder, accompanied by wistful narration about the end of Chippendales' glory days. You can tell that this sorry story about the infamous male strip club is going to be just sharp enough to keep it from drowning in soft-core froth.

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

Product Description
JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH starts off with a bang-literally-when choreographer/promoter Nick Denoia (Peter Nevargic) is shot in his office. Was it his former boss Steve Banerjee (Shelley Malil), who founded Chippendales? Or one of the dozens of other people he has crossed to get ahead? Spanning the decadent techno-dance era of the 80's, a sexy drama that chronicles the rise and fall of the legendary Chippendales nightclub. After a casting session for prospective male dancers, handsome Chad Patterson impresses nightclub owner Steve Banerjee and becomes the club's host. After Banerjee hires choreographer Nick Denoia, Chippendales becomes a sensation. However, success comes at a high price, involving sex, drugs and money. When DeNoia produces a successful touring revue, using the Chippendales name, Banerjee plots to kill him. In the end, lust and greed lead to murder and suicide, and no one is left unscathed. An intriguing look at the excess of the 80's, exposing the bizarre truth about Chippendales and the end of an era. The world-famous Chippendales male stripper nightclubs- the days of screaming women with big hair stuffing dollar bills into the thin g-strings of smooth-skinned male erotic dancers.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wow. Sexy, accurately historical, moving, get-up-and-dance, all in one!, January 7, 2006
The original Chippendale dancers absolutely made history, and Just Can't
Get Enough tells us the story in one of the sexiest, more historically
factual, and well-made movies about the time. It is so much fun to watch
that you will a)wish you were part of the Chippendale team, and b)want to
go out and dance. Think Boogie Nights, Saturday Night Fever, and Studio
54, only less Hollywood, more the true story of a particular place, and a
particular group of dancers -- one that would most certainly go down in
history.

Following the original gang that started the club, and the name
Chippendale, the movie shows us what happened from the beginning, when
nobody knew what they were doing, and everyone just had a dream....a dream
to make a lot of money using their bodies. It was really quite simple. We
see how this plan affected the dancers' personal lives, how the money, and
the fame, started to take over their lives. Next we go through the years
when the club was thriving, when the money was rolling in, and the sex and
drugs were at everyone's disposal. Then, when gay men wanted to come
through the doors to drool over the sexy pecs and big you-know-whats,
things started to go down hill. Corruption took over, people ordered other
people killed, and eventually, the Chippendales were essentially murdered
to the ground. The Chippendale dancers are a part of history -- a part of
sex work history, of gay history, of LA history....of history.

Just Can't Get Enough does a wonderful job telling their story. The acting
is great, the story is historically correct, the message very powerful.
Get this movie and learn how, for the Chippendale dancers, they just
couldn't get enough. (And it's definitely sexy enough that you won't be
able to get enough either!)

4.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Soundtrack, October 17, 2003
By A Customer
There's something charming about this movie. It's scrappy, rough around the edges, and fun. I wasn't sure what to think with the lame o box, but it's full of surprises. For one, the music. Who knew this movie was packed with wall to wall 80s gems like Wall of Vodoo and Flock of Seagulls? And also, the humor. You couldn't tell by the cover, but this is a really funny story, especially if you appreciate odd human behavior. The marketing guys should be slapped silly, because I passed by the movie a dozen times before finally deciding to purchase it, and I'm glad I did.

3.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining movie, but these Mens bodies are way better!, March 26, 2003
By Porfie Medina "Porfie Jr. Medina" (Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
To be honest the main reason i got this movie is because of John Paul Pitoc who stares in this movie. He was such a great actor in TRICK that i had to get this one. Just Can't Get Enough is a entertaining movie but its not much more than that. This movie is about the original Chipppendale dancers and how greed ends up coming back to haunt them. Very dark at times but in the tradition of most true stories many details are left out. The beautiful mens bodies in this movie are alone worth checking this flick out.
