American Hustle

Christian Bale, Bradley Cooper, Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner, Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Pena, Robert DeNiro and Writer/Director David O. Russell you may remember from award winning films like ‘Silver Linings Playbook’, ‘Three Kings’ and ‘The Fighter’ what is there not to love with this impressive line-up!?

This 2013 Crime/Drama was based on true events that took place in New Jersey during that time period, and the characters and story developed by Eric Warren Singer and David O. Russell was magnificent and brilliant in that our characters were well developed, seductive, and magnetic but also because the story was equally clever and thought-provoking.

Rated R for some sexual content, brief violence and foul language, this $40 million USD budget raked in a remarkable $146 million USD at the box-office. With a run-time of 138 minutes viewers were absorbed and had their fancies tickled with entertainment the whole way. Jennifer Lawrence and Cooper deliver some of the best jokes and although the film is mostly Drama, it plays light and un-complexed compared to what actors Adams, Bale and Renner usually play. 

No heavy message to be had except ‘Do the Right Thing’; your reputation depends on it!
