Review of Ocean's Eight (2018) by Jackal J — 17 Jun 2018
I watched Ocean's 8 trailer when I went to watch Deadpool in Orem cinemark. It made me really to watch it, so I watched ocean's 8 last week. This movie genre is action/adventure or suspense/thriller. This movie is a bit same movie, one of favorite Korean suspense movies which is called 'The thieves' it came out in 2012. But I disappointed when I watched Ocean's 8 because I could not find any tension and urgency in that movie. They easily gather people, made a plan and stole a jewel successfully which is $150,000,000 without any obstacles. I think throughout the movie has tightly easinesses. During the movie, the most part that I expected was stealing scene. This scene is shown in the trailer already which was not that interested. Honestly I would like to recommend to watch The thieves. Also I feel bad to compare with a movie, Now you see me, but this movie is a way better than Ocean's 8.
One thing that I can tell is all the actresses in that movie are awesome; Anne Hathaway's different acting that she normally does, Cate Blanchett's girl crush, and cameo, they are all fun while I watched it. It was excellent for casting those actresses but not in scenarios and directions. However, unlike previous crime movies, I think that it is okay to watch that all the leading actors as women, and to watch that they are led by women as a center.
Finally, I hope this movie will be a good starting point for the future of the film industry.
