I Saw it Twice....and then I bought it!

Rating: 10/10 (30 April 2014)

No apologies! Yep, I bought the DVD set that includes the digital copy. Admittedly, the first time I saw "American Hustle", I was taken back, annoyed, confused, and uncomfortable---during the first 15-20 minutes. Then I settled a bit. As I became familiar with the roles played by Amy Adams and Jennifer Lawrence, it became interesting and entertaining for me. Following this first viewing, I also saw other nominated films of 2013, which led me to wonder had I seen any yet worthy of Academy Award, and if so, which ONE! So I returned to see American Hustle again. That's when I fell for this movie and it became my choice for top movie. Movies that I would never want to see a 2nd time can not qualify, by my standards, for movie of the year. There were actually several that I would see again. "Captain Phillips" and "12 Years a Slave" are not among them. Kind of reminds me of my rage when "ET" did not get movie of the year!! "Gandhi" did. I ask, "what's your score on multiple viewings of these?" OK, my "review" is basically defending my ultimate enjoyment of "American Hustle". What was confusing was, of the four actors, who was "Best", and who was "Supporting". They were each incredible. But the gals were stunning in there roles. And "the mayor, Jeremy Renner", was outstanding. I'm just glad the DVD set came with the iTunes digital, so I can truly watch it anywhere, anytime.... I do not appreciate UV digital--as you still need a I-connection. Just SEE the movie. Relax! Enjoy!! I beg for movie to entertain me!! This did!!
