As expected, Hustlers is at the center of the specialized critics. This is shown by a long series of publications in the media that mentions the new salty film by Jennifer Lopez on the big screen.
"J. Lo gives a career-best performance as the ringleader of a band of strippers who steal from their douchey Wall Street clients in one of the most fun crime thrillers of the year," Kevin Fallon said in The Daily Beast.
Like several of his colleagues, Kate Erbland from Indiwire emphasizes that Lopez's performance deserves consideration in the upcoming awards season: "The film is funny, empowering, sexy, emotional, and a bit scary, with most of those superlatives coming care of a full-force performance from Jennifer Lopez genuinely deserving of awards consideration. "
Meanwhile, Courtney Howard from Fresh Fiction points directly to the work of the film's director: “Lorene Scafaria captures female friendship as a multifaceted dynamic, showing internal complications and complexities, without turning anyone into a villain. She shoots empathy and understanding through the lens."
Swindling the richest men
Together with Lopez, Constance Wu, Julia Stiles, Keke Palmer and Cardi B shine in the story of a band of girls who, as nightclub workers, get together to swindle the fat cats of Wall Street who visit the strip club.
