Mike may be magical but Joe Manganiello’s bag of tricks steals the show IMAGE COURTESY OF WARNER BROS.
The best scene (or dances) in Magic Mike XXL belong not to the titular character but to Joe Manganiello’s Richie who tries to make a poker-faced, obsessed-with-her-cell phone convenience store clerk smile. After watching that, you’ll never hear the Back Street Boy’s “I Want It That Way” the same way again. What he does in a tiny isle with a bag of Cheetos and a bottle of water is pretty much magical.
