It's good movie and fun watching it. Apart from "sometimes I felt like I'm watching ocean's thirteen in female version". And some of the dialogues also taken from ocean's thirteen. Apart from this, it's a good and fun movie to watch! I sure had good time! I would like to see both ocean's team work together to pull greatest heist of history!!
Wow. This was a lot better than what I was expecting. It's not the greatest movie ever, but a ton of fun for sure, and brings back a good amount of the charm of the original movie. Blows the sequels out of the water for sure.
It's a fine movie but nothing special. It is entertaining and the all star cast is a lot of fun. I love Cate Blanchett and Anne Hathaway. The heist was ok but it felt like it could of been bigger and done better. I don't get all the hate on an all female cast. It's fun to see something different and I would rather have this than an Ocean's 14. I would watch an Ocean's 9 and 10.
Fun and entertaining movie that left me with a smile. Anne Hathaway absolutely knocks it out of the park in the film and is the best thing in the film. This movie makes for a good addition to the Ocean's franchise.
WOW, what a total SJW BS. Why is Hollywood insisting on this, in trying to rewrite history with their feminist BS. What's worse, is that they do a great disservice to women, as if they can't have all original stories, original blockbuster movies, but they end up having to ride the coattails of men. Leftist logic at its best.
this was so bloody good i think i ascended onto a higher plane
wow. thist was unexpected. this movie is greaT!!!. if you love oceans and have nothing against women. then youre gonna have a blast.
it manages not to be a re-hash of the original. it REMINDS you of the original. and adds its feminist touch.
the performances are mostly great. and rihanna of alll people.... believable performances!!!
the presentation cinematography. all top notch.
there is an ocean tag on the movie. so yes. there will be some automatic comparisons with the movie. and it just barely does not live up to the original. but its right there.
what it lacks is a bit chemistry. and some of the lovely ladies are underused. mindy kaling especially. she is underused!! . could have been better. but wont dissapoint for sure. im going to see o11,12,13 all over again now.
there was also a tiny issue where it just seemed weird that danny ocean(george clooney) is dead and now her sister is mourning her. the thing is she is added later in writing and its difficult to believe it and u simply miss george clooney
there are some genuine twists of the "oceans" standard. it will be like . HAHA GOTCHA. its cute. and you can just have fun in that.
will repeat, all performances are superb and movie is watchable alone for that. the writing is smart. music is perfect.
hate to bring up that movie. but this is not a Ghostbusters 2016 nonsense which ive read somewhere. this is a great movie. and ghostbusters 2016 was a disaster.
please go watch in theatres!! we need to support such films with ensemble cast and fun themes. ocean's 9!!!
The third act is quite all right, but the two preceding it are rocky.
Also, it’s too plot driven, which results in a lack of character development, and by extension, a lack of engagement with the movie as a whole.
I really wonder why they decided to draw so much attention to the plot, especially when the plot is so flat and paint by numbers.
4.5/10
It's not the disaster it could've easily been, but it's not fantastic like it should've been. It's a fun, even if undemanding heist film. One reviewer said it best: It's missing the element of rivalry, that's kind of a staple for this series, and it's lesser for it.
I rally enjoyed it.
Sandra and Rihanna are my two favorite characters.
All of the ladies did an amazing job.
I hope there is a second part of this movie.
Went to the cinema just to see Cate ride a motorbike, wear a ton of cool clothes and be a general badass with a glorious fringe. Didn't leave disappointed, can recommend.
Ocean's 8 has a great (and diverse!) cast with amazing chemistry, interesting characters, and a fun plot. I enjoyed every minute of this film and actually saw it in theatre twice.
Also, 12/10 for Cate Blanchett's outfits - I walked into the theatre gay and I came out (pun intended, I guess) gay and empowered.
Tried too hard to match it's predecessor's and failed at every turn.
Great cast and plot was decent, but the execution was full of holes and flaws.
Looks stupid as S***. It will be a train wreck like the all female ghostbusters. Now that is a trud of a movie.
For sure not the best of the Oceans. A lot dull in some points, the cast did not fit together and the heist they pull not that impressive. It felt like they could do things a lot different and still pull it and got away a lot easier.
Nice symmetry to create a real Ocean's experience from the female perspective kudos
Absolutely loved it! Amazing actresses and amazing plot. I didn't really know what to expect, but I totally adore this movie!
Note: Unsure if spoiler tags are working if not please leave me a comment
A solid film. Sandra Bullock did.everything I needed her to. Anne Hathaway was an utterly charming delight.
Alright so now that I've seen Ocean's 8 and given it some time I have thoughts. Most of them good. I liked the scaled back heist. One of the things I was worried about was trying to go bigger than hitting all five casinos on Las Vegas' strip. It was.... okay, for Ocean's 11+ but that kind of oneups man ship has issues. Instead we got a tight focused heist. With a tight focused crew. If any thing the only issue was that it was too focused.
The literal worst part of this movie is that everyone was so good at their jobs that not enough went wrong. What I want in a heist film is Gambit. I want to understand the plan and then see it mess up multiple times. Irreparable times. And then see my thieves somehow pull it off with planning I wasn't even expecting. The closest thing to that in Ocean's 8 is when (small spoiler) one of their marks turns out to be far more aware of what's going on then the crew anticipated forcing them to have to account for that my issue isn't how they treated the mark but that functionally (bigger spoiler) they add her to the crew with no muss, no fuss, and we don't even get to see it happen . There's just a lot of implying of the fun stuff. Not all of it because there's a lot of clockwork precision going on that actually made me think if these ladies had attempted Ocean's 11 they would have gotten off with none of the hitches that Danny had to go though.
The cameos were excellent. Though no cameo in any heist film will ever top the cameo in Oceans 12. It was brilliant and unexpected and worked perfectly. Even though I don't know who this Awkwafina chick is and I feel like her name is mocking me (and I recognize that's just a me thing), I loved everyone in the cast except Cate Blanchett's Lou. Every scene she was in I felt confused. But as a character she was fine. The worst characterization was Rihanna in a dress. For "reasons" the entire gang end up in dresses befitting their personalities. Rihanna just wore one of her own dresses. Because everything about that dress was Rihanna and not her character (9Ball).
The reveal scene was good. It made you feel smart for noticing things without looking like it was trying to make you look smart. The banter with the cop is a great trope in heists films but this movie has a bad one. James Corden was weak as the insurance investigator trying to find the jewels. Specifically because (medium spoiler) he knows who took them and they don't deny it. In a situation like that why are they bantering. What does he hope to achieve with said banter? Its one thing for him to suspect, but for him to know to literally know who took the jewels? it took all the tension out which is a shame because that tension was sorely missed in scenes with the mark I mentioned in an earlier spoiler.
All star, kick ass cast! The heist is interesting, but certainly not the "trickster & thought provoking" job from the original Ocean's Eleven. There are some blaring plot holes, but all is forgiven because the characters are far more fleshed out. & to be quite honest... women often make more complex and dynamic characters than their male counterparts. And this film was no exception!
Each character had her own backstory & unique traits beyond her trade skill sets to bring to the team, unlike the men's team that felt more one-dimensional. "Men get noticed; women don't." brought a distinct feel to this movie that the other Oceans lacked. It was more sly and manipulative, and that's sexy!
And let's be real... the Met Gala was simply a glamour shot for cameos from all the big name celebs & we all ate it up at when "These boots were made for walking" came on & all the ladies exited dressed to the nines!
alr im gonna be honest ocean's 11 was not as enjoyable as this one. maybe its the state of mind i was in, maybe i was paying too much attention to brad pitt instead of the actual film, i don't know. but i do know i enjoyed the hell outta this. sandra bullock? anne hathaway? helena bonham carter? mindy kaling? rihanna? what a star cast! & i enjoyed how much they flew under the radar. yknow in oceans 11 the casino ppl KNEW it was danny but here? only her crew and john fraizer. it was crazy insane how well and seamlessly they pulled it off. intro scene is badass too
No idea why people go so hard on this one. It's fun, it's entertaining, it does what it sets out to do. Acting isn't consistent across the board, though. I found most of them meh but Hathaway was great.
So, make a remake of a franchise with an all female cast. Great idea. Have the whole story centred around diamonds, gala, fashion, celebrity and jealousy, are you fucking serious ?
Now call it Ocean's EIGHT while the team is only 7 people, and have the whole cast throw excessive surprised expressions when the obvious eight is revealed, come on !
The planning of the heist is not too bad though it's in the end pretty simple. It's a little sad that in the end the main work is not into how to steal, but in how to deal with the aftermath. So stuff that is not shown in the planning, rapidly brushed over afterwards, and is so obviously full of flaws.
Most obvious point, she literally tells the investigator that she did it, and he's supposed not to care. He could steal have recorded the conversation and gave her away to the police at the end.
By the way, she provably got in under a false identity. Isn't that enough to revoke her parole ?
The investigation itself is pretty poor. You should obviously start inquiring about every one that was just hired in the past weeks. They don't even bother interviewing the woman that actually found the replica, seriously ?
Daphne's last minute involvement is kinda ridiculous, why would she care about $17M ? Because she is lonely, sure...
And of course, the main twist (the whole thing was a decoy), is even more stupid. It would have been much more interesting to show that, than to try to have it as a twist at the end. And it's even more full of flaws.
First, congrats at having the actual main heist being entirely done by a man...
But the plan assumed that the Toussaint would be checked, and not the rest ? Nobody wanted to check on those after there's been a robbery ? Nobody mentioned that Debbie was the only person inside during the evacuation ? And they announce their share, like they could easily (and knowing the price) sell such a huge amount of huge (and famous) diamonds...
It's not that bad in the end, but the twist for the sake of twist is pretty poor. What is fun in heist movies is the complex planning and how to deal with unexpected issues. Sadly here there are lots of flaws that are all brushed over by the fact the guy just decides to not arrest her or even investigate who was part of it. Sure, he works for the insurance, but that also means the police is never involved ? As for the unexpected, there is the magnetic lock issue, but it's just immediately solved by a 13yo. No matter it makes it impossible for the necklace to just fall since nobody care who actually stole it... And at some point there is a busboy having a chat, that's it. Not really exciting. So it's kind of a huge letdown on this (main) point.
Apart from that the cast is ok, and Anne Hathaway is just great. HBC is pretty annoying in every scene though.
Remember a better time?...when all female movies took place in a prison with scantily clad inmates?... Ahhhhhhh the memories
The movie is mediocre and offers zero insight into the characters, which makes it hard to feel engaged or even slightly invested in what they want to achieve and whether they'll get to achieve it. The plot has an interesting twist but also numerous holes.
Nevertheless, the cinematography is nice and the music is groovy, most of the cast does a good job too, even Rihanna. Bullock however lacks the nerve and can't convince as the leader of an ambitious heist. Highlights of the movie are Anne Hathaway and Cate Blanchett whose character was crying for more attention and development , thanks to Blanchett's talent and impeccable style.
This was a lot better than I was expecting. I'd thought the all female cast thing would be played upon but actually its just another film. Perfect plane fodder.
So many plot holes. So many unexplained things.
The Botox continuity is a little off on occasion, and its a bit slow at times, but the hacking was fairly realistic...so...breakeven I guess.
The best part was the look on Hathaway's face when she heard what her cut would be. She was all like...damn girl...it usually takes me at least 2 movies to make that type of scratch!
Only having seen the first of the Oceans installation, I'm not sure if I understood all references but all in all the movie was quite enjoyable. I really enjoy Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett and Helena Bonham Carter on screen and was surprised that Sandra is fluent in German. The story is of course a bit predictable and I'm no sure if it was just Anne Hathaway's role but I really didn't like the acting there. In addition I'm still not sure about Rihanna's as well as James Corden's talent in acting… I just cannot take James seriously as everything he says reminds me of how he behaves in his (hilarious) Late Late Show.
Decent but too many women
This was a good film and while I would recommend it, it wasn’t a great one. The pacing was a little too slow for my liking which resulted in a film that went on just a tad too long. Additionally, one of the great things of the original Ocean movies is that they spent a lot of time delivering the planning of the heist. In Oceans 8 you’ll find yourself spending the first half of the movie watching some older women get a group together, right before executing a simple plan. Overall, the plot was too thin. I came expecting an unrealistic plan which somehow comes together at the end through the talents of each and every hottie. Instead, I got some older women spending very little effort mainly just talking. It’s worth watching, but I don’t think I’ll be seeing it again soon.
passei mal com as lendas e Rihanna
Amazing movie! Go to see this movie! I don’t know how have people dragging that movie because it’s amazing and the cast just SLAY, it’s better than all the ocean’s movies. I’m not surprised that people who say bad things about that movie is 98% men btw
Will be a brutal sjw bullshit, and tank like the female ghostbusters
Did not like it.
I guess it will go well with star stricken audience that watches movies just because a movie star that they like is in it.
For me it is a bad movie.
Bad characters (after watching the movie ask yourself what did you actually learn about lead characters.
Not two rows worth of character development and also almost no interaction between them).
Bad heist plot (multiple plot holes and inconsistencies:
SPOILERS they drag Ann to toilet so they can steal the necklace and then act that they found it somewhere else because it slipped although it was pointed out that it can not slip since you need magnetic key to remove it, or at least wouldn't it be easier just to give her the fake necklace in the toilet saying that it fell.
Also later they drove off with the rest of the diamonds while the place was in lockdown by "best security team in the world" that just accepts "oh, look what i found in the pool" explanation...
Not to mention the movie is caled Ocean's Eight but there were seven women in a group which made Ann Hathaway's reveal at the end not so much of a shock, more of a meh.
There are many more plot holes but it would take longer to read them than to watch this movie.
About SJW in the movie
they managed to cover all "the colors of Benetton", Also it is marketed as a movie about an "All women's heist team",
but in the end they have a male in a team, but I guess he doesn't count and doesn't deserve an equal part of the loot.
Constance swiped one necklace and gets 38 million, but the guy that collected all the rest gets a tap on the shoulder, and no credit.
Actually fell asleep in the theater. An altogether boring plot and I felt Sandra Bullock did a particularly poor job acting. The movie might have had more success if it wasn't attached to the Ocean's franchise.
See this movie! It's clever. It has the unexpected. It's funny (but it is a dry, clever wit, and although I was sitting there chuckling away, a lot of the audience were missing a lot of the quick witted humour). The women gave excellent performances. The plot had a B line that isn't revealed until later, so pay attention. I give this film an 8 (appropriately so, and great) out of 10. [Heist film]
The cast is funny and plays their parts well but...as with any heist movie something goes wrong right??? Nope, anything that could go wrong already has been thought out by Debbie which is an interesting story but doesn't make for very exciting film.
How can it be Ocean's if Ocean is not there. Good lineup of actresses though, although its disappointing rihanna was casted also into this.
OCEAN’S 8
Nailed it, bailed it or failed it?
Let’s play!
Writing: BAILED IT
The script stays true to the earlier films in the franchise, with a broad cast of diverse characters, a plot similar to Ocean’s 11, a highly implausible mega-heist and some clever twists and turns before the end credits. This time most of it has been dipped in a fashionable, elegant coat of female paint.
Much of the dialogue and humour is so strongly targeted at female audiences it actually became difficult for me to fully enjoy it all.
Most of the scenes outside of the actual heist aren’t really that interesting at all and much of the main plot itself lacks dramatic tension: things happen too easily, the twists are predictable and there is a lack of a compelling villain.
Even if the decision to continue the film a while after the heist is a great one, it also feels quite empty and flat in its final moments.
The main twist is quite implausible.
Characters and Acting: NAILED IT!
Sandra Bullock and Cate Blanchett actually make for a better dynamic duo than Clooney and Pitt in the original films. Together with the loveable Helena Bonham Carter, they steal the show.
The cast is diverse, and each character feels like a real person. They all have special talents suitable to the world today, which also gives the film a modern feel.
I like the fact that the film puts focus on one small step of the operation at a time, before moving on to the big heist. This way, it puts focus on one or two different characters at a time and give suitable screen-time to all of them.
Even if the film does a fine job at making every character stand out on their own, it struggles to make them a believable team together and many of the characters are quite simple.
James Corden, a talented comedian, feels completely misplaced in this film and his part could have easily been left out.
Direction: NAILED IT!
It largely works, with director Gary Ross clearly knowing what he wants his film to be, even if the film loses its sense of direction in the final 20 minutes.
Visuals: NAILED IT!
It’s as slick as always and it harks back to the original films with the playful editing and the interesting choice of angles.
Sound: BAILED IT!
Another connection with the first three films, Daniel Pemberton brings back that hectic, loud and annoying score I disliked in all of the earlier films.
Pacing: BAILED IT!
It starts out strong and the heist itself is very exciting to watch from start to finish. It’s what happens afterwards that totally kills the momentum and the steam and drags the otherwise good pace down a notch.
Themes: FAILED IT!
The personal motives, the revenge story and the basic truth that diamonds truly are a girl’s best friend. Nothing particularly original, in other words.
Atmosphere: BAILED IT!
Other than the girl-talk parts and the flat atmosphere at the end, the atmosphere is largely what you’d expect from a heist movie of this type. Most of the humour, while lovely, isn’t all that funny.
Rewatchability: BAILED IT!
Nope, not really. Unlike, say Ocean’s 11, which requires some focus to fully understand, this one is straightforward and there is little reason to revisit another time.
Expectations: BAILED IT!
I went into this film, thinking it would be a pale copy of the first three films. It turns out to be a great update in many ways, but still not special enough to really have a reason to exist.
Bottom line: BAILED IT!
Ocean’s 8 stays true to the franchise’s elaborate heists and elegant style, but even an all-female cast and a modern touch don’t help it stand out from the earlier films.
I didn't watch any of the ocean parts (Or I did and can't remember lol) but I liked this one. It was funny, entertaining and I liked the plot. I hope there will be a second part with this crew.
Its fun and entertaining, more than i expected. Bullock, Hathaway and Blanchett were good, but i didn't buy Rihanna for a second.
Critics might have been to harsh on this.
Final act and ending were somewhat weak.
You son of a bitch, I'm in!
Ocean's 8 is a perfectly adequate heist movie. If you have ever watched and enjoyed a heist movie, you will like this.
The formula is simple: assemble the team, pull off the caper, roll credits.
I'd say the first half of the film is slow, but it does a good job keeping the pace - just know that it is going to be a walk, and not a run.
Now, when the heist takes place, the pace does increase.
Another part to understand is that this is very dry and serious. There are moments of comedy - three, by my count - though they don't exactly land.
Are there twists within? Of course. One I saw coming, because it is set up early, and makes sense. The other did take me by surprise, even though it was set up with a quick scene that didn't make sense until the end.
For anyone who has not watched this, it is not a remake, it is a sequel. There are direct allusions to the other Ocean's movies - I have watched them, but was never a big fan.
Overall, I thought this was good. Better than I anticipated, but nothing amazing.
The real standout was Helena as kooky art chick, Rose Weil. I'd even go as far to say that the entire team cast was great - yes, including Kaling, Rihanna, and Awkwafina.
The ending may have been the sole weakness. I say "ending," but I am talking about the tacked-on part at the end. Basically, the movie has a satisfying ending, then it keeps going, then the credits roll. I was like, "oh, what an odd place to end this."
I'd recommend this to any fans of the genre.
Fun enough movie with tons of ridiculously good-looking people. Seeing Cate Blanchett in that velvet suit and Rihanna in the red dress more than made up for the price of admission.
Very predictable and boring. Great cast but even they cant rescue the bad script
Well, I was about to rate this 6.5/10 when I saw here that I already rated it 6/10 when I apparently watched it in 2020... :o I guess I really shouldn't rate it higher than 6/10 given that I just watched the whole movie without ever realizing that I've watched this before - and I do usually remember movies for many years - strange...
The only thing that felt familiar was James Cordon but I assumed from previous Ocean movies or from his show.
Anyway, it was decent and entertaining at times but nothing special - I wouldn't ve watched it again if I realized that I've watched this before...
I guess my main complaint is that it's way too unrealistic in too obvious ways.
The heist was stupid, the humour was nonexistent, the characters were lifeless, the plot was dull: This whole thing was just a big giant eye roll-worthy snooze-fest.
Anna Hathaway was gorgeous as always, though <3
It was a bit of a disappointment for me. I really loved the fast pace of the other movies but this one just so, so slow. It’s an okay movie but don’t expect the same wit as from Danny and his guys.
The heist was so flawed, even Daphne (Anne Hathaway) could smell bad fish. It makes for a good pop corn flick where you can turn off your brain for a few hours and enjoy the company of some of Hollywood's most prolific, talented, and beautiful actresses (Hi, Rihanna).
Nice Movie. Story has huge holes though but its more about the feeling anyway. 5.4/10
i'm using this movie as a fun measuring tool for how little attention i should give a man and his opinions, which boosts it from a 7 to an 8. i can take or leave some of the actors in this normally but all the roles were great and worked well together. like i genuinely haven't loved hbc in a movie in years and the character rose was a delight.
mostly i'm just sad cate and sandra didn't kiss at the end.
Jesus christ the plastic surgery faces and CGI blurring was really distracting in this movie. Female empowerment, as long as you look "flawless"
Overall, this was ok. This is a film with a very star studded cast. Actresses like Sandra Bullock, Sarah Paulson, Anne Hathaway, Helena Bonham Carter, and many more. Although it was nice to see these here as I absolutely love all their acting styles I don't think this was any it their finest work Overall the story was ok but nothing new. The cinematography was definitely a stylistic choice that just didn't impress me. I think this film is one that could be loved by many, I'm just not one of that many.
Good stuff, this.
I really enjoyed 'Ocean’s Eight'. It's a sizeable drop off from the great 'Ocean's Eleven', but I actually - just narrowly - enjoyed it more than 'Ocean's Twelve' and 'Ocean's Thirteen'. With this 2018 film, they got a lot right. The pacing, but also the casting.
It's nice to have Sandra Bullock (Debbie) return just to keep the continuity going, that as well as the fact that she's very good in this. I rate her as an actress, but sometimes I find her performances irritating - here, the complete opposite, I love how charismatic and confident she plays Debbie. Cate Blanchett (Lou) supports her well, too.
The rest of the cast are strong choices. I enjoyed seeing Rihanna and Awkwafina, along with Sarah Paulson, Mindy Kaling and Anne Hathaway. James Cordon appears too, he seems to split opinion but I like him.
The plot is good, very watchable. I found myself questioning one moment of the nitty-gritty event, but otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed seeing it unfold. I also liked the editing around it. The ending isn't the greatest, but still more than satisfactory.
Super comedy movies and excited
Meh. Without a decent story, it doesn't matter if you have 8 or 80 famous actresses. It's still going to be a bad movie. At least it wasn't boring...
By the way... I guess the bathroom door wasn't the only place in the museum without camera coverage... right? :person_facepalming_tone1:
The cast alone was a reason to watch. It starred some of my favorite actresses. On top of that, the plot was good, good heist. Really enjoyed this movie, probably a lot more than I thought because I wasn't an real Ocean's fan.
Surprisingly good. Atleast better than the previously 28 sequels to Oceans 11.
It was quite an ok movie. Something just didn't click; can't place what tho. It leans more towards a 7 than a 6 tho. I would say a 6.7. Maybe it just all went too smooth. The incidents were a bit too cliché. Trying to angle this without all the familiar faces it would be a straight 5. So maybe it's the bias and knowing they character's previous roles. But maybe that kind of counted for the other Ocean's movies too :). Nontheless; not a bad watch.
A fun movie, elevated by a terrific ensemble cast.
The Oceans series has always been smug, contrived, and not as clever as it thinks it is. This latest entry in the franchise doesn't break the mould, it steals it! The movie isn't awful but like Danny Ocean , the franchise needs to be put to rest.
It was fine. Cast full of celebrities but movie itself was good but not really exciting.
As a heist movie, it's run of the mill.
How they managed to make an underwhelming movie with such an overwhelmingly promising cast is beyond me, but underwhelming it definitely was. Engaging, the characters were brilliant, and it was fun, but the movie somehow missed a certain something.
This was not the edge of your seat, surprise ending movie that I was expecting. The previous Oceans movies all had twists that you tried to predict but usually missed. There were always twists and turns that kept you guessing about how it would all work out. In contrast, this movie was fairly straightforward and the "twist" wasnt much of a twist at all. I'll admit that I was disappointed.
This was a fun film and a good addition to the Ocean's series. Bullock and Blanchett did well as the Clooney and Pitt type characters but with their own flair. I was underwhelmed by Paulson, Kaling, and Bonham-Carter, but Awkwafina and Rihanna were great in some distinctive roles and Hathaway stole the show. I definitely hope to see Ocean's 9 and 10 before we run into numbering issues with the series.
Oh, and the cameos were fun too, though I would have like more.
Oh my… What the hell happened with Danny?!
I have seen a lot of nonsense films, but this is really vapid and without history. A disaster.
So we have great actors and a good old heist. Thats it. I hoped it will be something different. I mean we have 2018 and it would have been nice, if the franchise would have brought up to speed. But its just like the others.
Why didn't they switch the necklace? At the moment of robbery why didn't they put the fake one? It would have been a lot cleaner, not alerting everyone. When they "found" the fake necklace and returned it, it should have been a huge alert for them to check and see immediately that it is fake
I had so much fun watching this movie with friends. The cast is so talented.
From best to worst: 1. Bullock, 2. Bonham Carter 3. Hathaway 4, Corden 5. Paulson 6. Kaling 7. Rihanna 8. Blanchett 9. Awkafina.
The star-studded heist flick of the year.
One of those movies that are fun to watch, but have more and more plot holes the more you think about it.
About as unnecessary as the Ghostbusters reboot. However, much better and funner than that. Definitely better than Ocean's 12 as well.
i feel like lady gaga saying talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique
TALENTED BRILLIANT INCREDIBLE AMAZING SHOWSTOPPIN SPECTACULAR NEVER THE SAME TOTALLY UNIQUE
The difference between a good and great heist movie is that a good heist movie has style. Ocean's 8 is a good heist movie with a great cast.
Did you loose an earring at the theater? 8/10 stars. Seems only fair, no?
Cast stuffing franchise aside, you expect some things in a heist film and this checks all the boxes. Some things you expect though (ridiculously random and unpredictable things happening that make the heist possible, quadruple crosses, etc.) are kept to a minimum happily. Not as funny as I had hoped, but the 2 hour run time went by quickly and I had a fun night at the movies. However, if they could not invite Helena Bonham Carter for any future installments, that would be just great. 7/10

My sole reason for watching this was because it has Cate Blanchett in it. I have not seen any of the other Ocean movies.
As far as heist movies go it was OK. At the same time it's rather generic and, aside from one final twist , predictable. Plus a couple of plot holes / logic errors. So, I'll just say it is OK for watching once but nothing I'd watch again.
