Smash Pictures did well to pick Will Ryder to helm its American Hustle XXX Porn Parody. Smash has really stepped up its parodies, and Ryder has long been the king of finding the right actors and costumes for his movies.

Taking a slightly more comedic turn than the original Academy Award-nominated film (but still maintaining a serious tone), the XXX parody features much more dialog than a traditional Ryder offering. Voice-overs are key, as well, since they relay the plot, which is loosely based on the ABSCAM scandal—but this has a prostitution ring thrown in for good measure.

Delivering the dialog and stellar performances is a first-rate cast. Tommy Gunn is near perfect as Irving, played by Christian Bale in the original; and Van Wylde does an excellent job channeling his inner Jeremy Renner to play Mayor Carmine Polito. Also doing a great job is Ryan McLane, who brings Bradley Cooper’s FBI Agent Richie DiMaso to life. But the real acting standouts are the women: Penny Pax as Irving’s partner and lover Sydney Prosser, and Aaliyah Love as Irving’s wife Rosalyn Rosenfeld.

As great as the acting is, though, it’s the sex that will ultimately compel fans to pick up this parody. Packed with seven sex scenes, American Hustle XXX Porn Parody really delivers. The heat kicks off in the first scene between Gunn and Love, and continues through an oral scene between Pax and McLane (who pair up again later in the movie for a great full boy/girl scene) and a three-way between Wylde, Kurt Lockwood and Cater Cruise, a definite up-and-comer in the industry.

Overall, the parody is deserving of prominent shelf space, and will impress fans of the original movie and the porn parody genre in general.
