It’s like the ultimate assembly of Hollywood A-Listers headed by the incomparable Sandra Bullock. Really, it was glorious to see Mindy Kaling, Cate Blanchett, Ann Hathaway, Rihanna, Sarah Paulson, and freaking Helena Bonham-Carter.
It’s not a loud movie, nor as hilarious as you’d hope. It was a quiet film that slowly bakes into the ultimate moment when they rob a 150-million dollar necklace on the Met, and it was gloriously clever.
What I am really impressed about is the subtlety that is very Gary Ross and the women were never objectified, and that is really where the movie wins. You forget that it is a movie with a great women cast, instead they were really a bunch of people who wants to steal something and they happened to be woman.
Sure there are flaws in a narrative, but it pays homage to the Ocean’s franchise with Hollywood Dream Team of outstanding actors.
Grade: 4/5 Stars
