Critic Reviews

  • Chuck O'Leary, FulvueDrive-in.com

    Robert Aldrich's Hustle is an honest and profoundly sad movie about how the legal system favors those with money, power and connections over those who don't. One of Burt's best and most underrated films.

    Big name stars star in this sleazy romp to L.A.'s strip joints and porno houses...

  • Jeffrey M. Anderson, Combustible Celluloid

    Thirty years on, however, its integrity and patience look positively masterful.

  • David Nusair, Reel Film Reviews

    ...plays like nothing more than a vanity project for star Burt Reynolds.

  • Emanuel Levy, EmanuelLevy.Com

    a film that wasted the talent of French star Deneuve, who never pursued a successful career in Hollywood
