The Hustle (I) (2019)

Truly Appalling

[1/10 · 28 January 2020]

This movie is just "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels", remade in skirts..... despite having a great cast, the comedy falls flat and misses the mark.

The script provides few surprises, and is a poor translation of the original DSR movie. WILSON & HATHAWAY are poorly cast, as the main protagonists, and give performances better suited to pantomime-farce rather than a smart-sexy comedy film.

I struggled to finish watching until the end.

Space Fury (1999 Video)

Not too bad, but.... not too good either.

The acting is OK (in some parts), the sets are pretty basic, the special effects are very dated by current standards - but the story-line is quite good.

If you are a lover of low-budget sci-fi, you will probably enjoy this pre-millennium flick, but don't expect '2001 A Space Odyssey'.
