So bad it hurts

Rating: 1/10 (23 February 2014)

Here we have one of the most over hyped and overrated films from the past decade. You probably saw a trailer and thought how good this would be. You are off by a mile.
The Direction by David O. Russell, AKA Scorsese wannabe. First things first, I read in the trivia that most of the movie was improvised, how good is that! Not good at all, obviously during this process the actual basic plot and characters got lost and ended up being spat out right at the end. Good direction and writing? Oscar WORTHY?! The polar opposite, Mr O. Hustle was the con master, not Christian Bale, he managed to get people to go and see this.
The writing. Now this is the biggest joke about this "film" (Im sorry i cant type film without thinking SNL Skit with ridiculous wigs). What exactly happens? Who in the hell knows, i sure as hell don't. I watched this thinking .....? my little sister could have wrote a better script. Does O. Hustle think he is the new Scorsese? Probably. Is he? So far from it its funny.
The Performances. Good god, to be honest i like everyone of these actors, A LOT! Except Jennifer Lawerence, but i wont get into anything personal. Im going to skim through this by saying they are utterly insufferable. Even Christian Bale is horrible? What he can do no wrong, well thats what i thought until i saw this. Now Jennifer... what are you doing woman! How old are you exactly? 16? Seriously it was like watching a really bad SNL skit, so bad its funny. She couldn't improvise lines if he life depended on it.
Overall. Watching this was oppressive, Im very surprised that i sat through it all. The amount of Oscar nominations it has is beyond me, i hope it pulls a True Grit. To conclude, this movie is so bad and its so sad that people were actually conned into watching such rubbish. Should you pay money to see this? Absolutely not.
Good day
