American Hustle better than 12 Years A Slave

Rating: 8/10 (7 May 2014)

I've watched these two films recently. What I believe is that American Hustle is better than 12 Years A Slave in many aspects.
First, American Hustle's soundtrack is really amusing, making the whole atmosphere of the plot properly.
Second, I have to mention about some really serious things like cinematography and the arrangement of shots.
Both films contain some Cut Away shots. I love CA, sometimes to give people time to think about the subject, and to make the film more interesting. But 12 Years A Slave's CA shots really made me mad. I still cannot know why they made such things. While in American Hustle, those CA shots are very good.
For cinematography, American Hustle's is very motivated, is a kind of inspiration. You can watch the film getting the most information from the visual impact. While for 12 Years A Slave, not so good for only WS, MS, CU, WS, MS, CU, sort of that. Boring when you always get the same view in different part of the story.
Really think American Hustle is a good film. Not the best, but the better.
