I feel a little conned by American Hustle. They threw a bunch of likeable & charismatic actors in this movie, let them improvise a bunch of dialogue, and distracted the audience from the overly complicated plot. Every time I would start to feel confused by what was going on, the film would divert my thoughts with a witty line, an unusual hairstyle, a flashy new outfit, a fun song, or something like that. However, in the end, when it was all over, I felt empty and somewhat unfulfilled. This isn't a bad film. I just think that it's not all that it's reported to be when you look past the flashy façade.
