Seventeen years ago, "Eleven Arhats" opened the door to a new world of crime-themed movies.
A group of "gifted" people are brought together, not to fight crime, not to save the world, but specifically to steal...
The thief Jiang Yang, who has always appeared as a villain in the past, has become the absolute protagonist in the movie, and it has a different taste...
After 17 years, we finally have its reboot series!
And this time the lineup is a hundred times more exciting than the last time!
Concealing the sky and crossing the sea: the beauty plan
Ocean's Eight
The biggest feature of this reboot series is its all-female ultra-luxury lineup.
This movie, which gathers all the goddesses in the European and American circles, is like an annual "Ji circle feast"!
After reading it, I really lose if I don't bend you into a plate of mosquito coils! (I bet one cent)
Ultra-luxury lineup
The moment I saw the cast, I knew that this was another must-see film.
The last time I saw a movie with such a strong lineup should be "Avengers 3".
Just pick any goddesses who can make an independent hit, and go to the same movie to form a group to play as a jungler. This kind of scene should be described as "rare"...
There is Cate Blanchett, who has won the Oscar twice.
She is the beautiful fairy queen in "The Lord of the Rings" ↓
It is also the domineering god of death Hela in "Thor 3" ↓
It can be attacked and acceptable, and people give her the nickname Great Demon King . If she is handsome, all men have to stand aside!
There is also Oscar winner 's Sandra Bullock ↓
She and the big devil Kate also sprinkled a lot of dog food in the film, don't believe you don't bend↓
Also won the Oscar for best actress with the Anne Hathaway ↓
Needless to say, the goddess Anne, her beauty is recognized by the whole world...
She is still in charge of the beautiful beauty in the film, but she really released herself ↓
Also won eight Grammy Awards of Li supermodel day ↓
This strange woman who combines the titles of singer, actress, model, and beauty blogger can always bring us all kinds of surprises.
For example, her performance in "Interstellar Agent" is a classic!
In addition, there is Emmy Award-winning actress "Sister Banana" Sarah Paulson↓
Helena Bonham Carter, who has starred in many classic works ↓
And Mindy Kaling & Austrian Ka Feina ↓
(Up Mindy, lower Awkwafina)
This group of goddesses gathered together, even if the square dance should be very interesting, not to mention they also made a thrilling stealing blockbuster!
A tribute to the classics
The restarted version of "Hiding the Sky and Crossing the Sea" continues to follow the routine of "Eleven Arhats" in terms of plot.
Some people say that this kind of plot is too old-fashioned and nothing new, but the detective doesn't think so...
The theme of "stealing" has become a big IP that audiences love to see .
Just like the series of IP movies like "Shark", "Dinosaur", "The Living Dead" that everyone has always loved ...
Although the soup is not changed, it is precisely because of the existence of this IP that the movie itself has a certain guarantee.
If I could sum up the plot in one sentence, it would be:
Debbie (left), who had just been released from prison , found her old partner Lu (right). The two gathered together a group of capable soldiers to steal a priceless necklace.
The story is simple and rude, but the details are amazing!
From summoning talented people, to preliminary preparation , to implementing actions , to selling off the stolen goods , the whole process was seamless.
Moreover, there are also some tributes to "Eleven Arhats". For example, Debbie's brother mentioned at the beginning of the film is the protagonist Danny Ocean in the previous work .
A photo that appears later is also Danny Ocean played by George Clooney ↓
Opening skills
Similar to "Eleven Arhats", each protagonist in this film has his own sky-defying skills.
Let's talk about Daphne played by Anne Hathaway ↓
Daphne's identity in the film is one of the hottest stars at the moment .
It is precisely because of her identity that she became the target of Debbie's group and played a vital role in the whole film !
But she was targeted not because the necklace to be stolen was in her hands, but because it was locked in a vault 15 meters underground.
And the best way to get the necklace out is:
Taking advantage of the Met Gala, known as the "Oscar of the fashion industry", he lent the necklace in the name of the big star Daphne, and then stole the necklace on Daphne's neck...
In the dark of Daphne in the film's skill it is stupid, white, sweet ......
It can be said that Anne Hathaway brought the big-chested star image to the fullest in the film~
And Debbie , played by Sandra Bullock , is the one who planned it all.
How cocky she is in the film, you can see the wave of "saucy operations" she just appeared on the scene !
She just came out of prison and went to the most expensive luxury store with only 45 knives, and she returned with a full reward!
How did she do it?
(The front is a high-risk action, please do not imitate)
First of all, she went to the trial area of high-end perfume and sprayed herself twice↓
Then I picked up some other products with a high-end "breath" ↓
Finally, take these products that have come along directly and go to the front desk to return them↓
When customers come to return the goods, the front desk will of course ask for an invoice, so Debbie finally said that she would not return the goods on the grounds that she did not bring the invoice, and took these goods away in an open and honest way...
Before leaving, I did not forget to ask the front desk for a bag↓
emmm, inexplicably a little distressed about this front desk, let people sell it and give back to the number of people, hahaha~
As a "Shooting Devils" , hackers are naturally indispensable, and the nine balls played by Li Chaomo play the role of hackers in the film .
Her skills can be said to be the same as opening a hook. Only in places you can't think of, there is no net that she can't hack...
And changed the sexy image in the past, Li Chaomou actually combed dirty pigtails in the film, and walked in a hip-hop style, with a hint of playfulness in his domineering ↓
Lu , played by the big devil Kate , is Debbie's friend for many years and an important figure who leads the overall situation↓
Ross, played by Helena , is a heavily indebted fashion designer. Her task in the film is to become Daphne's designer and suggest borrowing necklaces↓
Amida, played by Mindy, is a professional jeweler . When the necklace is successful, he is responsible for quickly making it into seven pieces of jewelry↓
Constance, played by Awkwafina , is a pickpocket with extraordinary craftsmanship . Her mission is no suspense to smooth the necklace around Daphne's neck↓
And Tai Mi , played by "Sister Banana" , directly sneaked into the VOGUE company, familiarized herself with the entire process of the event, and assisted in designing the best crime plan↓
Each of them plays a unique role in this mission. Although their skills are large and small, they are indispensable...
Watching the close cooperation of a group of goddesses, nervous and exciting, couldn't be more exciting!
visual feast
In addition to its luxurious lineup and exciting plot, the most attractive thing about this film should be the costumes inside.
Met Gala has always been known as the "Oscars of the fashion industry" . The annual Gala ceremony is a carnival of actresses from all over the world.
So stealing things at such a grand ceremony is naturally a feast for the eyes~
What impressed the scout the most was that at the end, the major protagonists wore remodeled jewelry, and the clips of the big costumes were like a visual feast!
Not much to say, let's take a wave ↓
Nine Balls (Li Chaomo)
Taimi (Sister Banana)
Ross (Helena)
Debbie (Sandra Bullock)
Lou (Kate the Great Demon King)
Daphne (Anne Hathaway)
There are also all kinds of jewelry exhibited in the event, which are also beautiful to explode↓
It is reported that all the jewelry appearing in the film are sponsored by Cartier, this shot is not ordinary lavish!
I'm definitely not advertising Cartier...
Of course, if Cartier wants to cooperate with us, we don't mind, hahaha~
In addition, there are surprise cameos by stars such as Kim Kardashian and Serena Williams ↓
This scene doesn't look like a movie, it just restores the world's largest fashion party!
Invert the suspense
Seeing this, I believe everyone has found it. Except for Daphne who was kept in the dark , there were only seven people who participated in the theft.
then why the name of the movie
What about [Ocean's Eight] ?
Also, it was promised at the beginning that the seven people would each share $16 million after the event was completed .
But seven people have become eight people, and the money is not enough to divide it anyway.
But at the end of the film, each of the eight of them received a huge sum of 38.3 million US dollars!
Is this some kind of trickery? !
And here's a little episode from ten years ago:
Debbie went to jail because she was deceived by the man she loved so much.
She and her ex-boyfriend were arrested for fraud, and her ex-boyfriend framed all the charges on her in order to get away.
It was his ex-boyfriend who personally sent her to prison↓
So after this success, in retaliation, she also turned her ex-boyfriend into her own scapegoat.
Wondering how Debbie got her revenge?
Check it out for yourself~
