It’s Amanda’s turn to pick a movie, and this is one for the ages. We’re geeking out and breaking down the iconic, legendary, absolutely STACKED Ocean’s 8 (2018). Amanda makes the case for why this movie stands toe to toe with the original Ocean’s trilogy, and honestly, it’s just a freaking good time. Um and have we mentioned the stacked cast?? Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Mindy Kaling, Awkwafina, Anne Hathaway, Sarah Paulson, Helena Bonham Carter, and just to push it over the top in the best way, Rihanna. Playing the team’s hacker. Yeah, uh huh. *nods slowly* No big deal.
Plus we’ve got some of the best fashion choices to ever hit the silver screen, big blingy Liz Taylor diamonds, actual Cartier, the Met Gala, celebrity cameos everywhere you look, a heist in a heist, dynamite chemistry between our leading ladies, and all of the Ocean’s-style effortless cool you can handle. Oh, and we figured out how to make this a trilogy with a future Ocean’s 9 and 10. You’re welcome. ;)
