People in the actual 1970s didn't try that hard to look like they were in the 1970s. It made me think the filmmakers never got past the 1990s when redoing the 70s for lulz was done to death and back. All those disco hits CDs at all those lame office parties. All the afro wigs and bell bottoms. It was like a schnaps…

I haven't seen the movie, but that was the most bizarre, uncomfortable-to-watch speech I've ever seen.
It's a mediocre film touted as a great film. The only performances that were worthy of discussion was Jeremy Renner and Robert Deniro. Amy Adams was okay; but, she wasn't great.
It was a mess. It was supposed to be a comedy/drama but failed at both. The sting they were setting up felt completely small time so the stakes were never compelling. The they-pulled-it-off ending felt completely unearned. Bradley Cooper's character was no more obnoxious than Christian Bale, so why are we supposed to…
It's mediocre and overhyped?
As far as "taking Matthew McConaughey seriously" see "Mud" (thought he deserve Oscar nom for that) and "True Detective."
It was mediocre. The writing was awful, the pacing was off, and the plot was all over the place - not to mention predictable. All of the actors have done much better performances in other movies, and most of the characters were very one note.

It was a terrifically overrated movie.
Except that he's British...
Thank you Oscars for not rewarding American Hustle
EGOT y'all!
American Hustle won nothing. I can sleep easy :)
You shouldn't be able to earn an Oscar for losing weight and playing a homophobic version of yourself, dammit! Chiwetel Eliofor gave me the chills. He was incredible. Even Bruce Dern acted through his silence in Nebraska. Are we just supposed to be glad that McConaughey isn't making shit rom coms anymore? Going to bed…
Not a single one of these wins pisses me off, which I think might be a record.
