Movie Review: Ocean’s Thirteen

*** MIGTH CONTAIN SPOILERS! ***

Featuring: Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Matt Damon, Elliott Gould, Al Pacino, Andy Garcia, Don Cheadle, Ellen Barkin

Genre: comedy, action

Plot: with some twists and apparently elaborated in places but it doesn’t really compare to the other two

Acting: the triplet is doing well as expected, Pacino disappointed a little but he didn’t have much to work with and maybe another actor would have fitted the part better. Would have liked to see more of Garcia, Barkin’s part was a disgrace, a very weak and unnecessary female character.

Drama: it evolves around money

Action: less than in the other too

Funny: it was the same trademark humor they used us to

Visuals: an architectural mutation

Soundtrack: appropriate

Comments: While it was fun for sure, it was not nearly as entertaining as the previous two movies. It lacks a strong female part and love interest. I liked it better when the boys kept their operation on a smaller scale and there was much more in stake.

Rating: 3/5
