Look out, New Avengers Assemble!


This is hands down the best match up since 'Avengers Infinity War'. The film is called "Ocean's 8" but it might as well be "Ocean's 11" considering the generous scoops of stardom:

Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Midori Francis, Charlotte Kirk, Anne Hathaway, Helena Bonham Carter, Mindy Kaling, Rihanna, Dakota Fanning, Whitney White and motherbitchin' Awkwafina.

These are some of the hottest names in show business right now and basically superheroes.

The ladies have come out in force here in this stylish and eloquent heist. It's like, did they mean to steal money or the audience's hearts? Hello! Wow! I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

The girls were amazing. They were not only fashionable, they were sophisticated, strong and effortlessly funny. I had to pick myself off the floor of the cinema a few times. I was disappointed Amy Schumer wasn't in this film, as she really could have made it side-splitting but what it lacked in Schumer it made up for in Awkwafina. Who is Awkwafina? Only one of the hottest names in cinema to date. She adds an energy and heady tingle to this cocktail of class that really balances everything out. She's puts the tequila in the sunrise.

Elliot Gould, is in the film. He features as a sort of Yoda character, guiding these Avengers into what will be their most daring stunt yet. While the coolness of these girls never leaves you feeling unsettled, you can't help but feel you're walking on a tight rope the entire time thinking "OMG, are these gals going to pull this off?". But then you remember they're Goddesses and that they can do what they want. Make no mistake about it, there's something supernatural about this film. It's not a few women trying to steal some cash a la "Ocean's 11". There's some else going on here. How else can you explain the existence of this film? I mean, fuck, no, sorry, this film is great!!! I didn't mean to suggest there's no good reason for it! Haha. LA-LA-LA! What?! This film rocks. Basically. So go and see it! "Oestrogen's 8" has it all. No! Fuck! "Ocean's 8". *Shit!* Shit ...Shit. Yeah. It's shit.
