American Hustle
Saw "American Hustle" with an 80-year-old neighbor. We both saw "Silver Linings" and were looking forward to seeing the Hustle stars Brad Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence. Though their performances were outstanding, the plot was so dry and boring that my neighbor actually fell asleep. Long movie with a plot that really doesn't go anywhere. Was not surprised to hear others in the theater trying to figure out the plot.
Great cast but a long, drawn-out plot. Kept hoping the movie would build into some sort of crescendo but it flat-lined.
Should've gone and seen "Philomena." Oh well....
