"American Hustle", a film nominated at the Oscars and the Academy Awards this year, is good in theory, but after watching it, I really don't know how to summarize my feelings. It seems to be finished, yes, finished, and then, no more. Very flat feeling. Think carefully: The subject matter of this film comes from an undercover operation by the FBI in the 1970s in the United States. The liar in the film made a fortune by defrauding applicants for loan application fees in the name of "assisting loans". For me, it doesn't touch me. The effect is good, but it has a heart for American audiences; in addition, the humor in this film is chatty, but the chatter is not black, which is a big discount for me, so many of them are wonderful in the eyes of Americans The dialogue just flashed past me. But after watching several American movies in the 1970s, I can see that this movie still spares no effort to restore and create this atmosphere. The costumes, the scenery, and the music all have a strong sense of style. The movie's name is American Hustle, and the content really captures the word Hustle. The fraudulent business of the male and female protagonists Irving and Sydney, after being caught behind the handle for Richie's undercover action, gradually snowballed into a bigger scam. The emotional entanglements of the actors in the film are also closely related to the topic. Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner, Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, look at this cast and you'll see how strong the cast is, and Robert • De Niro's cameo. In the end, I would like to use this title to recommend a British drama to those who can see the last, Hustle, Flying Thieves, six episodes per season, each episode is about 50 minutes, eight seasons, the theme of theft, very exciting!

    The Olympiad films in recent years have become more and more homogenized. Almost all are adaptations of social events and news figures, combined with neat narratives, proficient techniques, accompanied by pseudo-sensational expressions, and then pull out gorgeous The cast of casts, in short, is specially tailored for the Oscars and aunts, with a flattering face. But I have to admit that all of them are good works with assembly line and humanistic care, but the probability of classics is also smaller.

    The 81/100 formalist film masterpiece does not pursue realistic details, but focuses on stylized dialogue, symbolic sound effects, meaningful photography and scene scheduling (these conscious processing can be seen everywhere in the film). This type of film emphasizes entertainment and emphasizes aesthetics, which will make audiences who pay attention to realistic principles dissatisfied. However, I personally like this film very much. The performance of the actors alone makes people dreamy.
