Film Review: Predictable, Unfunny ‘The Hustle’ Has No Game
Submitted by PatrickMcD on May 10, 2019 - 6:57amCHICAGO – As the “Oceans Eight” remake of last year proved, it is simply not enough to redo a film and flip the gender focus. Anne Hathaway may be the kiss of death for this genre, as she appeared both in O8 and the current “The Hustle,” which in turn is a remake of “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” (1988). Rebel Wilson, doing what Rebel Wilson does, portrays her sidekick.

Film Review: Sequel’s Tune is Off Key in ‘Pitch Perfect 2’
Submitted by PatrickMcD on May 15, 2015 - 5:56pmCHICAGO – “Pitch Perfect 2” wasn’t bad. There was the same off-kilter weirdness and funny lines of the first film, but in this sequel there were also stretches of boring, seemingly made-up stuff to slog through. I guess repeating a premise about college singing groups doesn’t offer much more to say.
