Ocean's Eight (2018) ***

Ocean's Eight (2018) is a slick, enjoyable heist film that adheres a little bit too much to the formula of the trilogy that came before it but always remains fun. The cast is great, composer Daniel Pemberton provides a head-bobbing facsimile of David Holmes' style, and while director/co-writer Gary Ross doesn't make any bad decisions, neither does he really offer any surprises. I can't help but wonder what the film would have turned out like if Soderbergh had just directed.
