    Enjoyable!

    I rented this film because it starred Bobbie Phillips. I wasn't even sure what to expect as I've seen Bobbie in martial arts and comedies, so I didn't really know what category this film was. It was kind of a drama/comedy. This film was unique to me in the way the story was told. It would be dark and kind of sad but then it would have funny moments or reactions from the actors. Like life! I thought Bobbie did a marvelous job. It was a side I hadn't seen of her acting. Also, the other characters were interesting. It was hard to figure out who the bad guy was. I would recommend this film highly. Especially given the fact that it is on video and there are limited copies which would make you think it wasn't as good as it is.

    Two Words: Bobbie Phillips!

    The movie was okay. Nothing spectacular, unless you look at Bobbie Phillips. Man she is hot. I'm surprised she hasn't been in more and better films. This movie is okay. The constant double crosses keep you guessing. It's your average grifter conning another crook film. The only reason to rent this is to see Bobbie Phillips and that is about it.

    uh wasn't it called th hustle? lol

    The movie 'The Hustle' was good. I thought it was kinda funny... i don't know whether it was supposed to be or not....but anyways yea it was funny because everytime you thought Maya was going for one guy she'd skrew him over LoL. But I think Bobbie Phillips is a great actress and shes really pretty so anyone who hasn't seen this movie should rent it!If you like movies where you get lost at times you'll definitely like this one! In the end it all does make sense though so go rent it! NoW! lol. knh, jill

    I guess since I have to write 10 lines for you to see this I'll just tell you that Bobbie Phillips is pretty... again. And stop reading this and go get the movie because you will like it!

    Bobbie makes it worth seeing...

    Although I became a fan of Bobbie Phillips' watching her in action roles "Chameleon" and "The Crow", she proves to be an actress with extensive acting talent. She is superb in all the roles she plays in this film. The film, I thought,was okay but a little slow. Maybe because I'm a big action fan. Even so, I enjoyed watching Ms. Phillips' performance so much I have to give the film an 8 out of 10.

    Bobbie Phillips ONLY reason to watch!

    I thought Bobbie's performance was wonderful throughout but, I was not impressed with the two male actors. Robert Wagner was good,as usual. As were most of the supporting actors. I must say though that there was not a lot of believability in the 'Martin' character. He just yelled through the whole film. The 'Tony' character was better but, came off weak next to Bobbie's presence. The film had an interesting plot but,overall had a tv movie of the week feel. Especially the music. I would say,any fan of Bobbie Phillips' will be happy to see her wonderful performance. But will probably think, "When will Bobbie get a film worthy of her talent?".
