Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/25 Full Review Rhonda So clever.. great plot Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/02/21 Full Review Mary Ann F This film is pure gold, and everything Ocean's 11 was. The reason I'm on the web today looking for where I can view it again is because after I rewatched Ocean's 11 this week, I made the mistake of rewatching Ocean's 12, as well, forgetting that this was the film where Julia Roberts, playng Tess, plays Tess as the woman who looks like Julia Roberts. It was incredibly infantile, cringe-worthy writing, and when the credits said, "Introducing Tess as Julia Roberts," I wanted to barf. That's when I recalled the freshness of Ocean's Eight, the ONLY sequel that should have been made. As for the negative audience reviews, I love reading the gyrations and long-winded hair-splitting of some male writers who simply can't get with gorgeous, talented women doing a great Ocean's film. It's hilarious how some find Ocean's 8 actually morally inferior to the Clooney versions. Lol! Like... WTF? But really... who cares? The critics got it right. It's a fun ride, just like the first. Enjoy it. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/10/25 Full Review Rebecca H If you liked Oceans 11, you will probably like this one as well. The actresses were all great and it was made. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/08/25 Full Review Julian S The cast is undeniably compelling, and, much like the all-female GHOSTBUSTERS (2016), it carries an invigorating sense of untapped potential, suggesting this is only the start. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/25 Full Review SkyRo P "Oceans Eight" is a film that reimagines the "Oceans 11" concept, shifting the focus from a male ensemble to a talented cast of women. While the idea was promising and featured incredible actresses like Sandra Bullock, the execution felt somewhat cheesy and lacking in depth. As a fan of Bullock’s work, I typically enjoy her films, but in this instance, despite the fun chemistry among the cast, the writing didn’t do justice to their talents. When you assemble such a star-studded group, it’s crucial to balance the roles rather than allowing one character to dominate the narrative. The goal should be to craft a cohesive story that weaves around all the actors, rather than trying to shape the story around one standout performance. In "Oceans Eight," it felt like the focus was too heavily placed on certain characters, which ultimately detracted from the overall story. The storytelling became muddled as the film tried to elevate individual performances while neglecting to give equal attention to the entire ensemble. What could have made the film stronger was a more equitable distribution of screen time, allowing each character to contribute to a grander narrative. Overall, while "Oceans Eight" is an enjoyable watch, it hasn’t compelled me to revisit it beyond this review. It serves as a decent way to pass the time, but it’s not a film that will linger in your memory or be missed in the grand landscape of cinema.
