The Strip Game (2005)
Method Man follows the lives of five strippers living in five different states. More than a voyeuristic trek between strip clubs, the film is an insightful, intimate look at the everyday lives of strippers.

Excellent, a Must See
The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
This was excellent. It was both entertaining and insightful, providing a plethora of laughable moments paired with the tough reality of the strip business. You have to have an open mind to watch it, and truly capture the meaning behind the film. Method Man deserves a lot of credit. In making this film he displayed a fine example of curiosity and creativity. His message at the end changed my opinion on strippers, and opened my eyes to the reality of the situation. On a slightly different note, I have read prior reviews discussing this film, and I must say, sadly, many are laced with text-book examples of unintentional racism. A person can be a rapper and still have something important to say. Everyone needs to watch the end of it, when Method Man is sitting down one-on-one with the camera, that is what changed my mind.
At first glance it seems like an interesting documentary. It's certainly something that would peak ones interest, "What is a strippers life really like?". From the opening you know that it's nothing more than a gangster rappers attempt at marketing himself.It goes from Stripping clips blasting rap music, to rappers talking..like rappers talk, to maybe 2-3 minutes of actual strippers talking about their lives and back to strip clips. repeated for an hour or so.Any message in this movie is destroyed by the idiotic rappers. Maybe someday someone who knows how to make a documentary will touch upon the subject again without egotistical asses putting themselves infront of the camera for literally most of the actual talking during the movie.This doesn't deserve the 1 I gave it.
