American Hustle AVForums Blu-ray Review

[Phil Hinton]

Cas Harlow revisits this over-hyped, underwhelming drama and finds that it still relies on excellent performances more than quality scripting.

 

[Dubliner1]

Great review...and agree- completely overrated.

 

[groucho marx]

[Andy Walsh]

This movie is over-hyped; predicatable.

I thought Lawrence was amazing in this, Superb acting, So much so that I completely forgot she was out murdering people in previous outings!
Bale was, as usual, very good. I am also surprised to see he let himself get into that state, one extreme to the other from the brilliant machinist.
I would say my only let down in the acting department was DeNiro, Typical and now getting old, performance.
I agree it was not the greatest film, i was expecting much much more.
