The movie looked great and had a cast full of capable actors, but that's not nearly enough. The story was a rambling mess designed for David O. Russell to impress the audience with his views that would have been progressive in the 1930's, like "Nazi's are bad" and "Black people deserve respect". By the time he got around the actually telling the damn story I didn't care, and frankly I don't think Russell did either. This movie was more about him getting Margot Robbie in front of his camera than anything. Christian Bale can't help but be great, but Atlas couldn't have carried this movie. I hope they had more fun making this dreck than I did watching it.
