Time is running out to stream American Hustle, Jennifer Lawrence’s acclaimed and "intoxicating" crime drama — the 2013 Oscar-nominated hit is leaving Prime Video this Monday.
Set in the glitzy chaos of 1970s America, American Hustle follows two cunning con artists forced to cooperate with the FBI in a sting operation targeting corrupt politicians. The star-studded cast includes Bradley Cooper, Christian Bale, Amy Adams, and Jeremy Renner, alongside Lawrence.
While Digital Spy praised the cast’s performances, they noted the film ends with a “rushed” and “overly convenient” finale. Still, audiences on IMDb give it a strong 7.8 rating, calling the film “dangerous, intoxicating, and an absolute joy to watch.”
The film came during Jennifer Lawrence’s meteoric rise — balancing The Hunger Games saga and her Oscar win for Silver Linings Playbook. Looking back, Lawrence admitted that era left her feeling overwhelmed and lost:
“I think I became such a commodity that every decision felt like a group decision… I just remember a loss of control.”
So, whether you're a fan of glamorous crime capers or J-Law’s iconic performances, now’s the time: stream American Hustle before it vanishes from Prime Video this Monday!
