![]() If the plot itself feels a little thin in parts, you’ll hardly even notice. But the real star, we think, is Cooper who goes all out to play the agent who is so desperate to be successful that he totally loses sight of his morals, ethics and affect on others. He is solid and a great centre for the movie.Īmy Adams is great and proves her acting chops again, although she’ll most likely be forgotten in favour of Jennifer Lawrence who plays the part of the long suffering and crazy wife to perfection. Bale, as usual, proves his willingness to take on any kind of horrible physical transformation and portrays the fat and horrible haired Irving with as much gravitas as he shows in any of his parts. It’s all crazy 70s fashions, mad hair and stellar acting and looks absolutely amazing. Meanwhile his mistress is busy forming some deep feelings for Richie.

Together they pull off a scheme that proves pretty worthwhile, and on the side Rosenfeld has to placate his wife (played by an always dazzling Jennifer Lawrence). Played by an unrecognisable Christian Bale (about as far away from his Batman persona as you can imagine), Rosenfeld is a small time conman who has an affair with Amy Adams’ Sydney Prosser. The film opens in 1978 and is based around Irving Rosenfeld. From the casting to the acting to the razor sharp script, this movie is funny as hell and well worth checking out. ![]() It may not sound like a ton of fun, but it’s a revelation. Based on O Russell’s script that has famously been kicking around for years, American Hustle fictionalises a scandal from 1970s New York. What we think : It perhaps didn’t seem like a movie with that much promise. ![]() Synopsis: A major cast of Hollywood A listers assemble to put life – and some dark comedy – into David O Russell’s black satire of an FBI led operation that set out to expose some properly corrupt officials. Principal Cast : Amy Adams, Bradley Cooper, Christian Bale, Jennifer Lawrence ![]()
