Like Casino (also boring as all fuck), american hustle is a pointless two hours.

i didn't like casino, as it was a repetition of a repetition of a repetition, but american hustle kept me laughing. casino-- so serious! american hustle-- bad wigs!

the progression/buildup is just like any narrative structure with a climax-- i don't think it's exclusive to goodfellas.
