68 - Ocean's 8

The all-female reboot of the Ocean's franchise sees Sandra Bullock and Cate Blanchett leading a team of women to infiltrate and rob the Met Gala. We discuss how the heist failed to meet our expectations, the weak integration of Ocean's personal motivation, and the underwhelming displays of glamour, but we find things to like, including Anne Hathaway's performance in particular and how the film depicts the characters eating. But ultimately we're left with the question: If a woman can't get the job directing a film like this, just what is she allowed to direct? Recorded on 21st June 2018.
