But her story has been lost to cinematic history -- until now. "Be Natural" uncovers one of the movie greats and gives her the justice and spotlight she deserves. Never

'The Hustle' is fun but not fantastic

2019/05/28

While it doesn't hold up to last year's "The Spy Who Dumped Me" or "Ocean's 8," this summer's chick flick, "The Hustle," is a good respite from the summer superhero, sci-fi smorgasbord. Anne Hathaway and Rebel Wilson star as two con artists going head to head. While not brilliant, "The Hustle" is a good escape film to kick off summer. Never miss a review by subscribing.
