possibly the best film of 2013

Rating: 10/10 (28 December 2013)

From the opening scene in American Hustle, I knew I was going to go on a unique, fun ride of a film. The first ten minutes of American Hustle was already exciting and fun enough to have my attention and investment throughout its entirety. The story centers on two con men, or one con man and con woman, played wonderfully by Christian Bale and Amy adams, get caught red handed by officer Richie dimasso, and are forced to help him con corrupt politicians, in exchange for avoiding jail time. This sets off an array of trouble, as they find themselves getting revolved in a world of dangerous men, and vulnerable situations, including the wife(Jennifer lawrence) of Irving (Christian bale) Who can destroy the whole operation. The strongest element in this film was the strong performances and it's what drove this Films success.
