Wow, this makes the all girl Ghostbusters look like the pinnacle of modern comedy. I can't wait to ride out this all female wave with The Godmother, 12 Angry Women, Citizen Jane, Reservoir Bitches, and Goodgals in the coming years. It's gonna be a blast, lads, you heard it here first.

An abysmal embarrassment; perhaps more painful the more affection you have for SCOUNDRELS, as Hathaway and Wilson are awkwardly put through the near identical paces of Caine and Martin; Wilson's painful evocation of Martin's schtick is tough to watch, and some nonsensical swapping around of motives and routines between the two characters makes the final act particularly tough to follow (especially Hathaway's motivations). Do yourself a favour and watch (or rewatch) Caine and Martin instead.

not so good

This was not made for me, nor do I think Wilson's fans will particularly enjoy this, but then again, her fans have been laughing at her brand of humor for awhile, so who knows. For me it wasn't funny & so I spent my time thinking about how "woke" the movie is. At one point I was sure there were transgender women playing biological women onscreen. I also wondered if they avoided the title "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" bc the female Ghostbusters did so badly. I expect it won't help.

Thsi is a fun remake. Anne Hathaway and Rebel Wilson both work well together in this movie. The script has some fun moments and some laughs. Overall I would recommend this comedy.

a movie in neutral, spinning its wheels from one not-quite there joke to the next unpolished bit of comedy. I found a few chuckles along the way, but overall the film failed to slip into gear and nothing moved. I was all about the idea of a Scoundrels remake, but The Hustle is too careful to follow the established plot and never breaks out into fresh laughs. I don't HATE it, but I find little to recommend, even if you are a fan of Wilson because despite all her shouting, the bits don't suit her

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is one of my favorite movies ever, so much of my enjoyment was from anticipating how they may tweak or recreate certain scenes. Some of the comedy worked pretty well, but other bits fell very flat.

Nothing extraordinary, but quite fun to watch :)

I like Rebel Wilson and she's more known for her divisive extreme personality, but she was almost phoning it in here. I have nothing against remakes but this one isn't even more feminist than the original, which had the twist that did a better job in advancing the central thrust in this remake that that men are gullible. The worst part was probably the lackluster male lead. Anna Hathaway looks stunning here but had terrible accents. Fav scene: Hannah Waddingham and the Real Housewives of Essex.

The acting isn't very good and the only enjoyable parts for me were remembering the similar parts from Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.
