Oceans 8 recently came out and so far the reviews are mixed.

This movie is basically just a rehashing of the old Oceans Heist series like Oceans 11,

but they've gender swapped characters.

So I can't say that I'm too surprised to see it's getting mixed reviews because we saw

something similar with Ghostbusters back just a couple of years ago.

They rebooted the series, made other characters female, and people gave it mixed reviews.

What is also not really that surprising is that following this, several of the lead actresses

in Oceans 8 are blaming critics for the bad reviews because they're white men.

Clearly they can't understand gender equality and that's why they're getting a bad review

and thus the movie will likely perform poorly because reviews are everything.

It seems like in the culture war you can't just have something be good or bad.

If the movie isn't doing well it must be because there's some kind of political reason

having to do with identity politics.

So what is actually going on?

Is the movie actually doing bad?

And is it true that the reason the reviews are bad is because white men don't want to

give women a chance?
