One of the worst films if not the worst film I have ever seen

Rating: 1/10 (15 October 2014)

TEN Oscar NOMINATIONS????? Really???? How???? Honestly, if I didn't have as much respect for the Academy awards I would entertain the thought that it is possible to buy nominations if not awards from Hollywood's most prestigious and coveted accolade institution. Everything about 'American Hustle' is bad and over-the-top, even actors/actresses who you know are good are made to look like caricatures of themselves in this self-indulgent-excessive-acid-trip- hot-mess of a film. The only character worth mentioning (who did not over play her part) -- is played by Elisabeth Rohm -- who is given such little screen time that is does not even begin to put dent into making this train wreck at least tolerable. Avoid at all cost.
