Interesting con movie will remind you more of The Grifters than The Sting. It did seem a little long to me but the ending made up for it. It starts out with the tag “some of this is true” It is about Abscam but I don’t really remember it.

When law enforcement authorities announced the operation, they said that “Abscam” was a contraction of “Arab scam”.  After complaints from the American-Arab Relations Committee, officials said it was a contraction of “Abdul scam”, after the name of its fictitious front company. Must be politically correct!

It does have my favorite Disney princess Amy Adams. So go just to see her. The other three leads are dynamite too! You won’t recognize Batman (Christian Bale) and is that really Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) with her partner from Silver Linings Playbook (Bradley Cooper)?
