Claire of Themyscira Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) Ok may I just say...this movie was excellent, fantastic, just through and through good. Entertaining plot, great comedy, great drama, and just knock-out performances. Bale, Cooper, Lawrence, Renner, heck Louis CK...everyone was just in top form. Also Robert De Niro was awesome. I spoilered that cause I didn't know...they were in the movie. I didn't include Amy Adams cause let me say she knocked it out the damn park and even with all the great acting going on she stood out even more. She was my favorite...I smell some Oscar gold. I really liked this movie...I could see it playing well for audiences too...whether this will do Silver Lining type money I don't know...but it damn well should. And as a special treat I got a Q&A with David O Russell at my screening (plus some of his key crew), didn't even know that was coming. He was a good listen. I highly recommend this movie.

eXtacy Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 The current RT score is at 100% after 15 reviews with a rating of 7.9. Don't think anyone doubted this was going to be a critic pleaser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leyla Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) great review kowhite! Glad u liked Adams! Hopefully she can get in top 5 (*cough cough* instead of Streep)! If Lupita wins it'll be on her own merits. That's a fantastic performance will see 12 YaS next week no matter how great she is (I believe she is cause I already support her! ) but the competitions matters too Edited December 5, 2013 by Leyla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddddeeee Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 "It’s particularly refreshing to see Christian Bale having what looks to be genuine fun in a role" http://www.film.com/movies/american-hustle-review This makes me happy. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxx93 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Oh man, the trailers and clips for this movie are so good. It is like a light hearted version of Pulp Fiction I can´t wait to see Batman, Rocket Racoon, Hawkeye, Superman´s Girlfriend and Mystique/Katniss Everdeen ALL IN ONE MOVIE!!!

altbum Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 The reviews for Lawrence and Adams are insane. It definitely looks like the women steal the show. I'm really surprised Jennifer's biggest fan is so quiet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Rock Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Don't think this will win BP or BD though...reviews are quite good but not outstanding and there seems to be certain elements which makes this highly enjoyable but not great...looks like audience will have more fun than critics here...supporting for Lawrence and lead nominations for Bale and Adams is possible. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd bank on it...Bale and Adams better both be up for best actor and actress. Adams should win, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stingray Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 (edited) I can imagine the Futurist being kooky enough to try to assassinate Obama or something, in order to impress and get the attention of Jennifer Lawrence. Like that crazy Jodie Foster fan. Edited December 6, 2013 by The Stingray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
