Ocean’s 8

THE GIST: After a stint in prison, Debbie Ocean, sister of the infamous Danny, sets her sights on the Toussaint, an invaluable Cartier diamonds necklace, unseen for decades. She reaches out to her old pal Lou and together they set out to assemble a specialized team to pull off the heist, at the Met Gala, of all places.

After the guys had their fun with three Ocean’s movies (11, 12, and 13), this time it's all about the gals, with Ocean’s 8 being the first in the series (and hopefully not the last) with an all female cast. And they bat it out of the park.

Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Helena Bonham Carter, Awkwafina, Rihanna, Sarah Paulson, Mindy Kaling, and Anne Hathaway are all fantastic in roles that must have been a lot of fun to play.

Also starring, Richard Armitage and James Corden, with cameos by Dakota Fanning and Elliott Gould, and a slew of celebrities playing themselves.

THE BOTTOM LINE: Plenty of action, a smart plot, great acting, and a fun caper. What more do you need??
