A con man, Irving Rosenfeld, along with his seductive British partner, Sydney Prosser, is forced to work for a wild FBI agent, Richie DiMaso. DiMaso pushes them into a world of Jersey powerbrokers and mafia.

Really hope this doesn't win best picture. What a Goodfellas wannabe. Bale and Lawrence were great, though.

This just reminded me I NEED to see Jennifer Lawrence outside of THG
She was good in that but.. I have to see what all the massive hype to her is about

I still have yet to watch it. Perhaps this weekend, but I gotta admit I wanna watch it mainly because of Jen.

You have to watch Winter's Bone. It's still my favorite performance of hers. That was how I was convinced that she'd make a great Katniss. She was great in SLP too.

The steel was polished to such a high sheen that she could see her reflection in the breastplate, gazing back at her as if from the bottom of a deep green pond.
The face of a drowned woman, Catelyn thought. Can you drown in grief?
She turned away sharply, angry with her own frailty. She had no time for the luxury of self-pity.

Looks like a Goodfellas wannabe knockoff. My dad saw this last night and liked it.

The story is different, but HOLY CHRIST is the style the same. I expected Bale to say "Ever since I can remember I always wanted to pull Ponzi schemes."

Repo - I'm the opposite. I've seen all of her big award performances and none of THG. Imagine my confusion when people say she'd make an awful Jill Roberts.

She's still good in THG. Just.... not even close to awards worthy. So I was really weirded out by all the Oscar talk.
Which ones do you recommend?

See The Poker House. She was fantastic in it.

Definitely SLP. She's great in Winter's Bone, but I don't know if I would put up with the rest of the movie for her performance (I can't even read my script parody of it). I also really liked her in this and X-Men: First Class.

I thought it was good, fun enough to watch. Nothing special, though.

I'd give it a 6.5-7/10.
