THE STORY :

Debbie Ocean (Sandra Bullock) , Younger Sister of the Late Danny Ocean (George Clooney), spends Five Years in Prison planning a Heist. Convincing her Partner-In-Crime and Friend Lou (Cate Blanchett) to take part in her Heist, Debbie proceeds to recruit Jewellery Maker Amita (Mindy Kaling) , Profiteer Tammy (Sarah Paulson), Street Hustler Constance (Awkwafina), Computer Cracker Leslie a.k.a. Nine Ball (Rihanna), and Fashion Designer Rose Weil (Helena Bonham Carter). In a Flashback, it is revealed that Debbie´s Ex-Lover, Claude Becker (Richard Armitage), had involved her in a Fraud Scheme and then testified against her, sending her to Prison. As Payback, Debbie chooses Becker to be the Scapegoat for the Plot to steal the Toussaint, a $150 million Necklace, at New York City's Star-Studded Annual Met Gala....

OUR REVIEW

“Ocean´s 8“ is the First Film in Franchise not directed by Steven Soderbergh, and is instead helmed by “The Hunger Games'“ Gary Ross (Chosen by Sten Sodenbergh and George Clooney themselves to direct the Film). This Time round, the Action focuses on Debbie Ocean (Sandra Bullock), Sister of the now deceased Dannyn Ocean (George Clooney). Sandra Bullock strides through this Movie with the Debauched Insolence of a Hungry Criminal who has elevated Thievery into an Ideology. The Film keeps the Twists coming and bounces along on a Comic Rhythm that's impossible to resist. In the end, Gary Ross connects the Dots of the Robbery with a Functional Competence that can't compare with the High Style Director Steven Soderbergh lavished on the Male Ocean's Films.... Ocean´s 8 is exactly what it promises to be : a Film centered on a Bunch of Professional Thieves who just happen to be Women and who just happen to be played by a Cast of Delightful Actresses.
