Just Can't Get Enough: The True Story of the Chippendales' Murders
by Dave Payne
from Wolfe Video
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
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.
