was ok, not as tight or clever as it thought it was, never as bad as the first sequel although rarely as good as the first film. WAAAY too many plot holes for it to work, to be fair. Not sure why there has to be a womens film, although I am not sure why there werent more women in the prequels either.

Obviously the heist is the best bit, pure fun.

edit -yeh just to clarify, I am not sure why we needed another sequel with a gimmick, the last two were relative stinkers and proved that formula is used up - I'm not actually objecting to women being in a film obviously,like I said I dont know why they didnt simply have more females in the original.


3 stars

I had high hopes for this film after loving all the other films in the ‘Ocean’ franchise and the Stella cast.

And I was not disappointed!

The way the story followed on from the other Ocean films was very good. The entire cast gave astounding performances.

Definite one I will be getting on dvd - girl power!

Finally saw this, and it was plain bad, i'd heard bad things and in that sense it didn't disappoint. I truly don't understand the need to remake this film, surely there are other ideas. Not even remotely close to being as good as the Clooney/Pitt Oceans 11, so why even bother?!

1.5/5
Upcoming films want to see;
Top Gun Maverick
MI 7 & 8
The Many Saints of Newark
Ghostbusters : Afterlife
