OCEAN'S 8 | FAMILY MOVIE REVIEW INFORMATION FOR PARENTS AND KIDS

"OCEAN'S 8"
(2018) (Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett) (PG-13)

QUICK TAKE:: Drama: A recently paroled woman returns to her criminal ways as she puts together a team of women to steal a $150 million diamond necklace.

PLOT:

Debbie Ocean (SANDRA BULLOCK), sister to infamous criminal Danny Ocean, has just been paroled from prison after serving more than five years following being framed by her partner in crime, art dealer Claude Becker (RICHARD ARMITAGE). Eager to return to that lifestyle and having spent half a decade concocting her next heist, Debbie starts assembling her team.

There's her original partner in crime, Lou (CATE BLANCHETT); jeweler Amita (MINDY KALING); fashion designer Rose Weil (HELENA BONHAM CARTER); hacker Nine Ball (RIHANNA); pickpocket Constance (AWKWAFINA); and fence Tammy (SARAH PAULSON).

Their target is a diamond necklace that's been in Cartier's vault for fifty years and is valued at $150 million, and they plan on stealing it at the Met Gala while it's around the neck of socialite actress Daphne Kluger (ANNE HATHAWAY). With each of the women utilizing their unique skills, they begin work on their complicated plan that involves lots of pieces falling into place, all of which also includes Debbie wanting to get revenge on Claude who's been selected as Daphne's date for the event.

And if they're successful, they'll have to worry about steely insurance inspector John Frazier (JAMES CORDEN) looking for holes in their carefully constructed plan and alibis.

WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?: Those who are fans of anyone in the cast might show interest.

WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: PG-13: For language, drug use, and some suggestive content.

I have subscribed to ScreenIt for more than a decade. I check in every week to take advantage of their amazing services. Not only does their site provide a glimpse of exactly what content a movie offers, I've found the “Our Take” reviews and ratings for each movie to be right on the money every single time. I've referred dozens of friends to this service because my #1 resource for deciding whether or not to show a movie to my kids, or to see one myself, is ScreenIt.com!

I signed up to get Screen It weekly reviews a long time ago, when my kids were young and I wanted to know more about movies before we went to a theater or rented. Now one child is in law school, other in undergraduate, and I still read the weekly Screen Its! It helps me know what my husband and I want to see or rent, and what to have waiting at home that we all will enjoy when my "kids" come home. I depend on Screen It reviews. They usually just present the facts and let me decide if the movie is appropriate or of interest for my family and me. Thank you for providing that service, Screen It!

I have 4 children who are now in college. I signed up for Screen It when my children were pre-teenagers. Often my children would ask to see a movie with a friend and I wished I could preview the movie prior to giving permission. A friend told me about ScreenIt.com and I found it to be the next best thing to previewing a movie. The amount of violence, sexual content, or language were always concerns for me and my husband as we raised innocent kids with morals. We constantly fought the peer pressure our kids received to see films that in our opinion were questionable. With the evidence we received at Screen It, our kids couldn't even fight us when we felt a film may have been inappropriate for them to watch. Thank you, Screen It. Continue to make this helpful service available to everyone, but especially the young parents.

Screenit.com is an amazing resource for parents, educators, church groups or anyone who wants to make an informed decision whether a movie is suitable for their viewing. The reviews and content descriptions are so detailed I am mystified how the reviewers can put them together.

I love screen It! I don't know what I would do without it. It is well worth the membership. Before we take our son to the movies we check it out on screen it first. Thank you SO much for making it. Keep up the good work & keep 'em coming!!!
