	Author	Review
United States	Owen Gleiberman Variety	"A heist that’s just impish and elaborate and 'perfect' enough to leave the audience gratifyingly tickled (...) It’s clever enough to get by"	POS
United States	David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter	"Gary Ross was the wrong guy for a wholesale franchise reinvention (...) This is a self-satisfied exercise that's only occasionally as much fun as it thinks it is."	NEU
United States	Manohla Dargis The New York Times	"The whole thing is familiar yet different enough (...) The movie goes down relatively easy"	POS
United States	Richard Lawson Vanity Fair	"'Ocean’s 8' is good, but it could have been great (...) 'Ocean’s 8' is a worthy continuation of a hallowed brand"	POS
United States	Brian Truitt USA Today	"The thieving women of 'Ocean's 8' pretty much steal the franchise (…) Directed by Gary Ross with a consistent tone of jazzy cool (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	William Bibbiani IGN	"'Ocean’s 8' is the most satisfying installment in the franchise. The all-star cast is impeccable, the shift in focus yields sharp insights, and the heist itself is wily and enjoyable."	POS
United States	Kate Erbland IndieWire	"[It] doesn’t have much in the way of original plotting (...) The depth and breadth of these characters is one of the film’s greatest assets"	NEU
United States	Emily Yoshida Vulture	"The appeal of the film should just be watching these cool ladies be really competent at screwing over the man (...) But a third-act twist (...) ends up undercutting even that premise"	NEU
United Kingdom	Benjamin Lee The Guardian	"[It] suffers from an absence of tension (...) 'Ocean’s 8' inelegantly plods (...) It’s made watchable thanks to the cast but star power alone cannot mask creative inadequacy (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United Kingdom	John Hazelton Screendaily	"Surprisingly flat (...) Little of the pizzazz and film-making brio necessary to make the formula really work."	NEG
United Kingdom	Ian Freer Empire	"It lacks the jazzy swagger of Soderbergh’s trio but delivers a fun, likeable romp built on the charm and charisma of its cast (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
Canada	Molly Freeman Screen Rant	"'Ocean's 8' provides a fun summer moviegoing experience, revisiting one of the most famous heist franchises and offering a new spin on the series' formula (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
