Who cons who?...

Rating: 6/10 (27 December 2015)

What carried this movie was primarily some amazing acting performances put on by the cast, but also a well executed storyline.
Speaking of the storyline, then I will say that while the story is interesting and good the first time you sit down and watch "American Hustle", then it is hardly a movie that will spur multiple viewings. Why? Well, because it just doesn't have what it takes to support repeated viewings.
An impressive cast puts on an equally impressive performance for sure. And just if anyone is in doubt, yes, it is Christian Bale who outshines everyone in the movie with his particular performance. But it was also interesting to see Bradley Cooper in a role such as the one he had in "American Hustle".
It is a rather long movie, but it does provide enough entertainment for the entire 132 minutes that it is running.
"American Hustle" is well-worth watching for the performances, characters and dialogue alone.
