Episode #278: Tributary – Hustle (2022)

Welcome everyone to a late Reel Film Nerds Podcast. Episode #278 is a few days late because of the holiday and Matt being out of town. It’s here now and the guys chat about a great new Netflix Original film Hustle (2022) starring Adam Sandler. Not basketball topics include fireworks, sleep drinking, and Independence Day.

We will keep this short since the pod is already behind and your hosts want you to listen to it, not read about it. Hustle (2022) is a great film with stellar acting, an amazing story, and a genuine down to earth feel. It is a sports film but both of your hosts, not being huge sports fans, still loved it. It is one of the best Netflix Originals to be released to date. Adam Sandler needs to stop making horrible slapstick comedies and keep making amazing films like this. Mike with a rare perfect score awards Hustle (2022) 5 out of 5 Reels. Matt not far behind also loved this film and thinks everyone should see it, he awards it 4.5 out of 5 Reels.    

For next week’s review the boys head to the theaters to watch the second MCU film of 2022, Thor: Love and Thunder starring Chris Hemsworth and Natalie Portman. Thanks for listening and we will chat with you next week!
