If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

American Hustle
But slow-moving? Somewhere between a glacier and a pitch-drop experiment. It's a two hour movie that feels almost twice as long.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
Slow moving? I beg to disagree. It went at just the right pace to keep me gobbling up whatever was about to happen next on the screen like salted peanuts, starting from the first second's on-screen disclaimer, "Parts of this movie actually happened."
ReplyDeleteBut it was the twists and turns of the plot, and the assortment of characters bumping into each other and stepping on each others' toes that held my attention. The only reason I'm glad it's not a three hour movie (like, for example, The Wolf of Wall Street) is that halfway through American Hustle I felt I had to pee, and there was no way I was going to leave my seat until the end.

I thought Jennifer Lawrence could be arrested for larceny because to me she flat STOLE that film.
ReplyDeleteShe was really good and I enjoy her parts of it...
All The Best,
