Film: "Ocean's 8"
Sandra Bullock leads an all-star gang of thieves in this humorous and stylish heist caper.
Five years, eight months, 12 days and counting—that's how long Debbie Ocean (Sandra Bullock) has been devising the biggest heist of her life. Fresh out of prison, Debbie wastes no time rounding up a veritable sisterhood of thieves, charlatans, hackers and hustlers to purloin a $150 million Cartier necklace. A veritable Hollywood Who’s Who joins Bullock in this women-centric offshoot of the Ocean’s franchise: Cate Blanchett, Anne Hathaway, Helena Bonham Carter, Mindy Kaling and Rihanna. The result is a con elaborate and “perfect” enough to leave the audience gratifyingly tickled. Rolling Stone’s Peter Travers sums it up best: “Ocean’s 8 is a heist caper that looks gorgeous, keeps the twists coming and bounces along on a comic rhythm that’s impossible to resist. What more do you want in summer escapism?”.
