Le coup du siècle

I liked it better as Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, with Steve Martin

I had zero expectations and it turned out to be a total laugh-a-thone. There are hilarious moments in the movie that overrun the sometimes flawed or absurd script. Starts mildly slow and it builds up pretty well half way through. The ladies are very funny, Rebel Wilson is the female Zack Galifianakis! 8/10 and remember to watch the post-post credits scene!

"The Hustle" is an OK movie to watch with your partner and is perfectly servicable for one and done watch, but it's not anything more than that. It's clearly a movie made for women's night out and that's not what makes it not good per se, because it offers something for both sexes to laugh at. Instead, it's the fact that most of the jokes are focused on putting our characters in socially awkward situations which is supposed to make us laugh, but in reality, a lot of the jokes fall flat. No, it's not all that funny to embarass yourself publicly, it's the way how it's done that makes it funny. The more chaotic and unhinged it is in its showcase of things spiraling out of control, the funnier it is. I think that Anne Hathaway and Rebel Wilson do a great job considering the circumstances, but it's not enough to elevate the movie from its mediocrity. Still, the movie does what it set out to do, and that's to offer the watcher an entertaining hour and a half and it does so well enough before it deservedly fades into oblivion. I give it 6/10 and I recommend it for a relaxing afternoon!

This isn't a bad film. It's clichéd but it's got plenty funny moments, and both actresses do a decent job. Anns Hathaways accent is distracting and some jokes fall a little flat but overall its a fun film. I'm not sure why it's gotten so much hate.

The movie could have had a good story and premise but gets lost very early in the movie. The fun back and fourth dynamic between Anne and Rebel is the only part of this movie that makes any sense. The story line is all over the map. It's almost like watching an audience yell out ideas like a second city show or an improv. Anne obviously was casted to try and carry the movie with her ability to adapt and become characters. She does a good job with her accent and pretending to be elegant. If you're able to make it to the end you'll wish you didn't. It's unfortunately just a way to pass the time.
