American Hustle (2013)

An all star cast (Lawrence, Cooper, Adams, Bale, Renner) supporting roles from De Niro and Louis CK, 10 Academy Award nominations, seven for the Golden Globe's, pity it's not very good eh?

 93% on Rotten Tomatoes, I had high hopes and was sorely disappointed. Yes it's got big hair, bad hair, facial hair, Amy Adams fried eggs on constant show, Jennifer Lawrence, but that's it, all flash, very little substance, it's melodramatic, thinks it's far clever than it actually is, oh and rather dull to be honest (Lawrence's character Rosalyn blowing up the 'science oven' being one of the few memorable moments!)

Talk about the Emperor's new clothes.
