Genius cinematography and brilliant performance by Christian Bale and Amy Adams

Rating: 8/10 (26 December 2013)

American Hustle's filming-style is artistic, and the angles captured are attention-grabbing, somewhat resembling the Tarantino-style cinematography in certain scenes. Very thought-out cinematography.
The film's screenplay was entertaining, the dialogue authentic, weaving both drama and comedy together in a harmonious fashion. Christian Bale was phenomenal in this film, demonstrating exceptional versatility, and incredibly amusing to watch. And, Amy Adams intense expression of feelings and facial expressions are remarkable. Wacky hairstyles and marvelous clothing design collaborate in creating the eccentric setting. Some level of predictability arguable, yet a very amusing and well-made film throughout.
