Ocean's 8 Review


Ocean’s 8 is a fun heist film despite pacing problems.  This movie is about Debbie Ocean who gathers a group of seven other female thieves to steal a priceless necklace.  Sandra Bullock gives a great performance. Cate Blanchett gives a fantastic performance. Mindy Kaling and Rihanna are decent in smaller roles. James Corden is a lot of fun in a small role.  Anne Hathaway is the best part of this movie.  She is having a blast and the movie gets a boost every time she is on screen.  The script is standard with a few clever moments sprinkled throughout. Garry Ross’s direction is good but never stands out.  At 110 minutes the movie starts and ends strong, but it drags in the middle.  Overall Ocean’s 8 is a fun heist movie that is worth a watch despite flaws. 
6.5/10
