The Hustle

The Hustle (2019) is a crime comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Chris Addison. Two con artists end up working the same stretch of the French Riviera and decide the town isn't big enough for both of them.

Josephine Chesterfield (Anne Hathaway) runs a polished long game: a borrowed accent, designer gowns and the air of a woman wealthy men feel honored to fund. Penny Rust (Rebel Wilson) prefers loud, scrappy short cons. Rather than split the territory, they make a wager. Whoever first fleeces a guileless young tech millionaire out of half a million dollars keeps the coast; the loser leaves for good. What follows is a back-and-forth of disguises, fake tears and dirty tricks.

This is a gender-flipped take on 1988's Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, itself rooted in an older Marlon Brando picture. The whole thing rides on the Hathaway-Wilson pairing, icy precision against shameless chaos. Ninety-odd minutes of breezy, low-stakes fun. Stream The Hustle (2019) online on iFILM.
