	Author	Review
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"Flashy, fleshy and all-around impossible to ignore (...) adapted by writer-director Lorene Scafaria at her most Scorsese, and starring Jennifer Lopez like you’re never seen her before."	POS
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"Lopez’s talent blossoms into something that takes your breath away (...) Her see-it-to-believe-it performance in 'Hustlers' is that dazzling, that deep, that electrifying (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times	"A breezier, infinitely less violent, pole-dancing, glitter-covered riff on 'Goodfellas' (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Kate Erbland IndieWire	"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."	POS
United States	Beandrea July The Hollywood Reporter	"[It] delivers on its hype while consistently doing the unexpected (...) [It's] an incisive commentary on women in the workplace"	POS
United States	Ann Hornaday The Washington Post	"In this raunchy, gloriously liberated revenge fantasy, Lopez rules with seductive, triumphant authority"	POS
United States	Richard Lawson Vanity Fair	"A bright stiletto stab toward equity, and in the process one of the best movies about American money in recent memory (...) It’s a deeply humane film"	POS
United States	Gregory Ellwood The Playlist	"[It] transcends the genre because of a plethora of vibrant performances from a large ensemble cast (...) No disrespect to Wu, who is very, very good, the film soars whenever Lopez, is on screen"	POS
United States	Sara Stewart New York Post	"Instead of being “Ocean’s 8” with a kicky subversion of exotic-dancing club (...) it runs out of steam early on and contents itself with running through the same scenario ad nauseam"	NEU
United States	Richard Brody The New Yorker	"A heartwarming tale of friendship, family, and shopping. Cardi B and Lizzo are brilliant in all too brief dramatic roles"	POS
United States	Leah Greenblatt Entertainment Weekly	"A story about class, friendship, ambition, and the things people do when money and morality meet (...) Beneath all the chinchilla and body glitter, there’s a smart, beating heart"	POS
United States	Justin Chang Los Angeles Times	"As a movie about the seductions of the flesh and the satisfactions of a well-executed con, 'Hustlers' is brassy and invigorating"	POS
United Kingdom	Beth Webb Empire	"A giddily entertaining homage to female power (...) 'Hustlers' is the kind of era-defining film that Hollywood didn’t know it needed (...) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of five)"	POS
United Kingdom	Benjamin Lee The Guardian	"The film really, truly belongs to J-Lo (...) She’s the shining neon star of 'Hustlers', a shrewd, deliciously entertaining pop culture caper (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Tim Robey Telegraph	"You’ve never seen Jennifer Lopez sell a character quite like she does in Hustlers (...) The film is capable of more than one point of view (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Clarisse Loughrey The Independent	"A lean, fierce take on female empowerment in a corrupted world (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
Ireland	Paul Whitington Irish Independent	"'Hustlers' is nicely made, and Lopez and Wu are very good in the leads, but this fact-based drama is eventually overcome by moral confusion (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
Ireland	Tara Brady Irish Times	"Give Jennifer Lopez the best supporting actress Oscar now (...) It’s is as smart as it is riotously enjoyable (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
Ireland	Deirdre Molumby entertainment.ie	"Hollow as it is, there is a sense of fun that can be extracted from the extravagance and drama of it all (...) It’s all style and little substance (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"	NEU
