A generally unfunny and regressive remake.

This is a slab of cold, unfunny comedy, just lying there, very very odd given the two talented performers at the center of it.

The Hustle just isn't very good, and the only con being pulled is on any audience member who has found themselves coerced into buying a ticket.

Hathaway is a pleasure to watch but this role is beneath her pay grade.

The Hustle wants to say something about the inherent sexism of the rich... but it never manages to overcome its weak jokes and tired plot points.

It's the irony of all ironies that one walks away from "The Hustle" feeling a little, well, hustled.

Audience Reviews for The Hustle

Feb 14, 2020In the pantheon of bad ideas remaking Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (which itself was a remake) ranks high, yet Rebel Wilson and Ann Hathaway attempt it in The Hustle. When a small time con woman gets taken by a pro she makes a deal to team up and learn her tricks, but they soon end up in a contest to see who's the better con artist. Half of the problem is Hathaway, who doesn't have any charm or likability. The other half is that the jokes just aren't that funny; relaying on a lot of sexual and gross out humor (which is Wilson's shtick). Still, the sight gags and pratfalls work pretty well and deliver some good laughs. Coming off as a bad imitation, The Hustle isn't fooling anyone.Dann M Super Reviewer

Aug 25, 2019Normally, I really like Anne Hathaway. Especially recently. But not only did I think The Hustle was pretty bad, even she specifically was pretty bad in it.Gimly M Super Reviewer

Aug 23, 2019Flipping to female con artists, this remake is almost scene to scene like the Martin/Caine pairing. Wilson and Hathaway are good together and it has laughs but breaks no new ground and is pale in comparison. Not a bad rental! 08-22-2019Christopher O Super Reviewer

Aug 09, 2019The comic thrust of this remake of a remake (see: "Bedtime Story" and/or "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels") involves our main characters ability to impersonate accents different from their own. Neither Hathaway or Wilson is too proficient in this regard in this story about two hustlers competing with one another in the French Riviera. Here is a low-aiming, light-hearted comedy that will not put you out much, but is doubtful you'll think about much either.Kevin M. W Super Reviewer
