Review: American Hustle

Like Argo, American Hustle has a story that sounds too good to be true, but unlike Ben Affleck's Oscar winner American Hustle plays it more for laughs and is worse off for it to be honest.

It's still good fun, but Bale and Cooper play things so far over the top this crime-caper can never become anything more substantial - the star of the show is Amy Adams who as well as looking amazing, manages to add some layers to her character whilst not wearing that many herself.
