Directed and co-written by Gary Ross, Oceans 8 is an all-female leading cast that stars Sandra Bullock as Debbie Ocean.

Ocean gathers a crew to attempt an impossible heist at New York City’s yearly Met Gala.

It looks as though Debbie is supposed to be a relation of Danny Ocean rather than a female Danny Ocean character, in a world where George Clooney’s Danny Ocean never existed. interesting.

I really want Ocean’s 8 to be good and my hopes are relatively high mainly because Cate Blanchett is in it. Such pressure on ‘queen Cate’.

Helena Bonham Carter, Mindy Kaling, Sarah Paulson, Anne Hathatway, Dakota Fanning, Samantha Cocozza and Olivia Munn also star.

Ocean’s 8 Release Dates: June 8th, 2018 (US); June 22nd, 2018 (UK)…

I had no idea that what was missing from my life was another Alice in Wonderland movie. That was until I saw the rather beautiful new trailer for Alice Through The looking Glass.

Trailer 1

Trailer 2

I remember loving 2010’s  Alice In Wonderland (2010). As such, I hope that at the very least , this will be close to as good as its predecessor.  Especially considering Tim Burton’s highly imaginative brain isn’t the one in the director’s chair this time.

Bring on the colours, the rhymes and the brilliant costumes!

Johnny Depp, Mia Wasikowska, Anne Hathaway, Sacha Baron Cohen and Helena Bonham Carter make up some of the colourful cast.

Release Date (s): May 27th, 2016 (UK & US)…

CINDERELLA (2015): Watch It For The Spectacular Win Against The Bullies & Cate Blanchett, Of Course…

My reason for watching the new version of Cinderella had very little to do with the romance. I watched the movie because of the cast, particularly one of my favourites; super Australian actor, Cate Blanchett.

The well-edited trailer with the perfect musical score also helped, but ultimately, I was most excited to see how director Kenneth Branagh handled Cinderella’s battle with her evil stepmother and horrid stepsisters.

The film is beautiful, thanks to Branagh and his well chosen cast that includes Lily James in the title role, Helena Bonham as the Fairy Godmother and Richard Madden portraying Prince Charming.

Besides having good dialogue and being quite the visual spectacle, the movie had me reflecting on my own experience of courage and the gift of kindness, especially when it comes from the most unexpected place.

Watch it to see a rightful win, and of course, there is the fairytale romance, if you’re into that sort of thing.

At least three of my favourite actresses are in Suffragette, June’s first trailer of the week.

Starring Carey Mulligan, Helena Bonham Carter and Meryl Streep, I’m almost certain that this film is going to be great.

I’m more than ready to watch and honour the foot soldiers of the early feminist movement.

Suffragette Release Dates: October 12th 2015 (UK); October 23rd, 2025 (US)…

CINDERELLA (2015): Cate Blanchett Is Who…?

Read my spoiler-free movie review of Cinderella (2015).

Cinderella is arguably one of the best fairy tales out there. Not because of the famous romance, in my opinion. But rather, thanks to the story of triumph over the unkind and cruel. Particularly when a person triumphs without sacrificing their character and principles.

I’ve watched the below trailer for director Kenneth Branagh’s live-action Cinderella remake a very high number of times, and the great music is certainly a huge part of the reason why.

Bring on March 2015, I say!!

Additional key cast includes Lily James, Richard Madden, Helena Bonham Carter, Hayley Atwell, Nonso Anozie, Stellan Skarsgård, Sophie McShera, Holliday Grainger, Derek Jacobi and Ben Chaplin.

Happy Film Loving,
