A lot of reviewers didn't think much of it, but I dug it, can't remember why I didn't review it though, I'm a huge Ridley Scott fan! To me every film he makes is a gift from the movie gods. I need to re-watch it so I can give it a proper assessment.

I can't say, that American Hustle is a masterpiece. It is flawed in many ways. <br /><br />But I'm not here to talk about this movie. In fact, I am a big fan of The Counselor. Probably the most underrated film of the past few years. The meter of real is at 100%. Every scene - so true.

Mature actors add a certain weight to a role that a younger twenty something or a teenager actor cannot.

I like movies that are trying to evoke a bygone era, especially when they get it right. I think they did a good job with this one. <br /><br /><br /><br /> Franco Macabrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994905312221715861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-74534698120080353172014-01-15T12:58:51.568-08:002014-01-15T12:58:51.568-08:00Francisco, films like "American Hustle" ...Francisco, films like "American Hustle" were fine back in the 70`s but now they seem like some kind of ludicrously embarrassing and out-moded unwatchable celluloid anachronism from a by-gone era.eddie lydeckernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-7149223968772509992014-01-15T12:54:00.538-08:002014-01-15T12:54:00.538-08:00Amy Adams has got some nerve, shes 39 but expects ...Amy Adams has got some nerve, shes 39 but expects everyone to believe that shes still only 26 ! ! !.eddie lydeckernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-51827693262762596242014-01-15T11:56:59.162-08:002014-01-15T11:56:59.162-08:00It's amazing how dedicated Christian Bale is t...It's amazing how dedicated Christian Bale is to his art.
