American Hustle

ma0sm [Edit] [Delete] 10:22, 2 January '14

Watched this last night, really enjoyable film, great cast doing great things too. Starting to like Bradley Cooper more and more recently, more for choice of roles than being a versatile actor, but none-the-less played the part well. Good to get some distance between Christian Bale and his Batman performances too, easy to forget he can actually be good. The acting was great all round, good work everyone.

***SPOILER ALERTS FROM NOW ON***

Based quite closely on Abscam apparently. Never heard of it before, but based on the "Some of this actually happened." at the start felt compulsed to look it up. Sordid affair from all involved really, The Wire it was not.

Amy Adams's wardrobe had a missing centre-theme going on for the majority of the film it would seem. What to read into this? What indeed.
