Pain Hustlers Movie Review : Evans and Blunt can’t rescue this mediocre drama on medication. Disappointing star power.
‘Pain Hustlers’ prolongs Chris Evans’ post-superhero mediocrity, while Emily Blunt’s talent remains underexplored. Blunt’s standout performance as Liza Drake can’t redeem the film’s predictable plot and lack of substance, echoing ‘The Wolf of Wall Street.’ Director David Yates sets the stage well but misses the opportunity for a more daring narrative on hustlers. The film disappoints, leaving the audience yearning for more depth and substance.
Oppenheimer review – Cillian Murphy’s finest hour

A tapestry of historical complexities unfolds, embracing imperfections. Nolan’s critique of Hollywood’s machinations adds depth. Despite flaws, the film promises more brilliance in Nolan’s cinematic future.
