'The Hustle' Stars React to Their IMDb Pages
We sat down with Rebel Wilson and Anne Hathaway to chat about their new film The Hustle, and to find out how well they know their own IMDb pages.
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBecause the film's PG-13 rating was originally an "R," Rebel Wilson had to go out and argue with the board that the film was no raunchier than similar comedies that had received PG-13 ratings.
- GoofsIn the beginning of the film, Josephine sets up a scam where she switches a fake bracelet for the one her mark is trying to sell her. This means they not only had to know which piece of jewelry he would try to sell that night, but also had to have access to it in order to recreate it well enough for 'only an expert' to know it was a fake (or his wife).
- Quotes
Penny: My condition is 100% mental.
Thomas Westerburg: Hysterical blindness?
Penny: It's not that funny to me, Thomas.
- Crazy creditsThere is a post-credit scene with Penny, Josephine Chesterfied and Enrique Escalera (the Guatemalan) at dinner, with more of Penny playing the family idiot.

Featured review
Only just passable
It lacked oomph. We need so much now when the movies are of such high quality.
The acting was not the issue rather the script they had to work with. There were only a couple of belly laughs, and others that were funny but not hilarious.
The setting was fine as well. Some nice views were on show.
With comedies they have the opportunity to be ridiculous and far fetched with some superb lines thrown in for effect and to give good actors a chance to shine. A few twists and turns that you cannot see coming also helps. The actors were let down I think.
The storyline needed to be more complex. The very best comedies are multi layered and clever. This one lacked all that unfortunately.
There was little tugging of the heart strings as well. That can be omitted for a comedy but it helps as well.
In depth characterisation was not there either. I did not connect much to any of them.
There were a few surprises but I had guessed them or saw them coming.
Maybe keep it for a TV movie later on. It is not in the realm of the fine comedies!
