American Hustle

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie American Hustle, which is not about any topic of great consequence but certainly has some fantastic acting.  It received 10 Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Writing and while it did not win any category, there were also a number of nominations for acting for the movie.  It stars Jennifer Lawrence who is nominated for an Oscar for her role as Best Supporting Actress as well as Christian Bale who is nominated for the Best Actor Award and a great performance Amy Adams who is also nominated for the Best Actress Award.  In fact, it is only the second film since 1981 where an actor or actress was nominated in each of the four acting categories and the one I have not mentioned so far is that of Bradley Cooper as Best Supporting Actor.  So, it is a movie with a great script and fantastic acting about a con artist couple. The movie received a 93% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

I didn't quite enjoy this movie as much as I did Wolf of Wall Street. I found the movie time consuming. Wouldn't watch it more than once.

Cant wait to watch this movie, any movie staring Bradley Cooper is a good movie.

This looks like a must see, I will definitely make a plan to watch it. I agree with Anne, Bradley Cooper strutting his stuff sounds wonderful

Just by looking at the cover of the movie, I don't think I will like it.

I've already seen it twice!
It's quite long but I thought the actors did such a great job, & loved the story line.
