The Movie Mob
**Hustle has a typical unknown up-and-comer plot for a sports movie, but it doesn't keep it from being an enjoyable movie.** Hustle is basketball Rocky with Adam Sandler as the Mickey-type character and Juancho Hernangomez as the Rocky. As a Netflix straight-to-stream, Hustle rose above expectations. Hustle tugged on the heart from time to time, and Sandler gave a sincere heartfelt performance, helping boost the quality of the film. With most of the rest of the cast rounded out with professional basketball players, the game performances were excellent, but the character acting was restricted to not over-stretch their acting skills. This sometimes limited the story's depth, and some of the movie's plot felt generic. Still, Hustle is a solid sports movie that is enjoyable for basketball fans.
