Ocean's Thirteen: review
Ocean's Thirteen is a relatively-cerebral affair which offers an absorbing alternative to the routine summer blockbusters of the special effects-driven variety(mind you Pirates of Caribbean:End of the worlds was totally from a different league)
The best thing is the star cast, with George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and Al Pacino, how do you come about and this is exactly where the strength of the movie lies in. With Catherine Zeta Jones and Julia Roberts opting out of this series, its all a male extravaganza, except for the Matt Damon trying to seduce Ellen Brakin, hey it was just a part of the larger plan. No love interests this time. After the previous sequel the only thing that could have got the whole gang led by Danny Ocean together would be a trouble with sum one among themselves involve in it. And thats what the story is all about.
Reuben is bilked by Willy Bank(Al Pacino), thus the group is reassembled to get willy bankrupted. Hey the story is a revenge story and turns out that Danny, Rusty and Linus are apparently too charming, successful and they all like to be with each other around a whole lot.
Well all in all its a must see for this weekend, especially if you have already seen Pirates of Carribean:End of the worlds.
