Debbie Ocean gathers an all-female crew
to pull off a heist on one of the biggest fashion events, the Met Gala.
--------------------------------------------------------CONTAIN
SPOILERS--------------------------------------------------------
A Sequel/Reboot to the previous Ocean
films starring an all female cast with Sandra Bullock leading the way. Only two
characters from the Ocean films appear in this show with a glimpse of George
Clooney. The Director, Gary Ross, also help write the screenplay; which he has
more experience in writing than directed. He has written scripts from ‘The Tale
of Despereaux’(2008) and ‘Big’(1988).
The interesting part of Heist film is
the ‘how’. The process and execution of the heist are fun to watch and ‘Ocean’s
8’ is one of them. The characters brought life to this film. The comedy consists
of character interaction. The cast was beautiful and brought the individual
personality of each character to the story. James Corden was also amazing in
this film~ It felt like a music video or a fashion lookbook with the wonderful
scenes with the jewelry and the fashion. There is one part where they jump cut
between Lou and Debbie speaking on the beach. The scene felt like a different
film compared to the rest of the scenes.
I’ve seen a few heist films where it goes bad in
the end, so I thought it might happen in the film. Even though they are doing
something bad and don’t really have any worthy cause in doing it, you root for
the ladies’ happiness.
One thing I didn’t like, the marketing for this
film. They ruin the surprise of Anne Hathaway’s character actually joining the
group.
