Excellent production.Well written.The Actors performances are five star.
Thanks Bernie Mac,you will be missed !!
Rating: - Best of the bunch
Everything here works well, if you don't think about it too much (or at all, really). Just sit back and enjoy the silliness. This is great fun, plus it has Al Pacino and Eddie Izzard. Cool.
Rating: - Ocean's 13 is a lot better than 12.
Ocean's 13 is a lot better than 12. The only reason 12 isn't too good of a movie is because the plot's confusing. It's hard to follow. 12 is hard to follow because in 11, they showed you the plan, then they showed the execution of the plan. In 12, they show you the execution of the plan before they show the plan itself. Not only that, but the plan they show the execution of is a fake one. You have to watch it more than once to fully understand it. I've done this, and now I've realized it's actually a pretty good movie.
Anyway, 13 gets back on track by showing the plan as the movie's going along. This makes it much easier to follow. The first half of the movie is kind of slow and a little boring, but the 2nd half makes it all worth it. Basically, the plot of the movie is that Reuben is partnered with Willie Bank to open a new casino. Bank double-crosses him and takes it all for himself. Danny and crew get revenge on Bank by first reversing the theory that the house always wins. In order to do this, they rig a bunch of the major games in their favor. Then they steal Bank's 5 diamond awards for the final blow. The way they show the "house losing" is awesome. It's kind of like one of those songs that builds up to a cool ending. I'm surprised that this movie is getting such mediocre reviews because it's pretty good. Also, Tess and Isabel are not in this one. Danny explains why in the beginning of the movie: "It's not their fight." I would highly recommend this to anyone regardless of what the other reviews say.
Rating: - LOW TIDE FOR OCEAN
Look, I know these movies are stupid vanity projects, but I really enjoyed Oceans 11 and 12, the guys seemed to be having fun and it was light(and I do mean light)entertainment, but this one is just lazy and nobody seems to be having the least amount of fun, the least of which is the audience. I mean Pitt keeps looking at his watch as if to say, shouldnt I be picking up Angela's teddy from the dry cleaner? Really, all of the actors in this film should be ashamed to cash their hefty checks, this is totally mailed in. Pacino is totally wasted and the plot, as if their ever really is one in these stupid movies, is totally convoluted, I mean what the f is Eddie Lizzard even talking about, you shouldnt need a degree in macro physics to figure out a movie plot. I dont recommend this movie in the least, frankly id like the two hours of my life back wasted on this inane tripe.
Rating: - Great...Just like the rest
Like all the movies in this series, this one is funny and whitty. Not a big Brad Pitt fan, but his character in this is fantastic. George is always good, and Matt Damon having an expanded role was fun to watch. I love Al filling in for Julia as afar as paychecks go, and you won't miss her at all.
