This looks like a direct copy of the "Ocean's" movies. Including Sandra Bullock being named Ocean. Then apparently, voodoo doll pin-cushion of the week Matt Damon will be returning too.
I didn't laugh at anything going on in this trailer. And frankly, it's insulting to women. It actually talks down to them. As if they couldn't enjoy a heist movie unless it was linked to a "man's movie." That was the point of the original ones. Frank Sinatra and friends had a gang who were fun loving criminals. The gist of this movie is simply to copy the copy. And it's going to be a disaster. Because men will not go. Trust me, they won't. No matter how good it is. I'm not sure who greenlit this, but I'm sure it was done as a backend deal for all those involved (cheaply made).
What Hollywood hasn't gotten yet...is that women don't identify with women in THIS way. Men love to be the hero of their stories. Women like to be whisked away (explains those fucking awful "Shades Of Gray" movies). That was the point of "Ghostbusters" reboot with women wasn't it? Women don't go around zapping each other with proton packs or shit like that.
But I understand, you just want to keep the stars who are in this happy, so they'll do other movies for you in the future. Call it a wash.
