charm and suave, sophisticated swagger that underpinned the first in what's become a trilogy of capers. And for those who endured the self-indulgent mess that was Ocean's Twelve, this latest and final entry in the franchise is a very welcome treat, proving very much that lessons were learnt. Dropping Catherine Zeta Jones and Julia Roberts from the cast list, but signing up the smaller matter of Al Pacino instead, the rest of the players remain broadly intact. So it's George Clooney's Danny Ocean who leads the team of cons, supported by Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Andy Garcia, Don Cheadle and Carl Reiner. And it's the easy chemistry between these and the rest of the team that underpin what makes Ocean's 13 such an enjoyable ride. The plot pits Ocean and his gang against Al Pacino's ruthless casino boss, and while the script perhaps lacks the cleverness and dense plotting that worked so well in the first adventure, it still leaves plenty of room for outright entertainment. The end result is an easy-to-enjoy caper, that's not the equal of Ocean's Eleven, yet far superior to Ocean's Twelve. And considering it was released in the midst of a summer where threequels generally weren't too well received, Ocean's Thirteen arrives in fine shape, and rounds off the trilogy with panache. --Jon Foster

Advantages: Gr8 storyline, much better than number 2 Disadvantages: None
...the best thing about the Ocean's trilogy has to be the chemistry between the two lead characters. Brad Pitt & George Clooney really look like they are enjoying themselves throughout the film and look like they really get on. The rest of the cast is fantastic too and each and every one of them brings in their own little vibe to the film.
I have been a fan of Ocean's Eleven since it came out. It was funny, smart and was amazing how they managed to ... ...spot for him in the Ocean's film mainly because he's so much different from his role in Bourne Ultimatum even though he could have pretty much played the same character. The view of Vegas is amazing. I've never been myself but wow did this look good. That's the thing with Ocean's Thirteen; Sodeberg always manages to make his 'set' look fantastic. This was the sequel that everyone wanted. The Bad Things
There's hardly any bad things but due to the ...

Review: The cons and gambits come at you thick and fast, and Clooney and his compatriots guide them all with such insular verbal code that the movie is beyond sly--it's a blizzard of blissed-out chicanery (Entertainment Weekly, 02/10/2007)
The third time really is a charm... OCEAN'S THIRTEEN is also a gas; it's lighter than air, prettier than life, a romp, a goof and an attentively oiled machine (New York Times, 02/10/2007)
OCEAN'S THIRTEEN is as frothy and smooth as a chilled margarita on a hot Vegas night... It's breezy, clever fun and ridiculously easy on the eyes (USA Today, 02/10/2007)
DVD Description
The third installment of Steven Soderbergh's slick, star-studded heist series just might be the best, as Danny Ocean (George Clooney) and company pull off another elaborate caper, this time in the name of revenge. Reuben Tishkoff (Elliott Gould), one of Ocean's original eleven, lies nearly comatose after a myocardial infarction brought on by shock. His dreams of regaining his former glory on the Vegas strip have been dashed by the dastardly Willie Bank (Al Pacino), with whom Reuben foolishly went into business to build the biggest and flashiest casino the the world has ever seen. Bank took Reuben for all he was worth, and now, the famously loyal thirteen won't rest until Bank has been brought down. They execute this noble cause through complex, daring, and brilliant machinations that make the most of everyone's talents, including Yen's (Shaobo Qin) acrobatics, Linus's (Matt Damon) acting abilities, and Basher's (Don Cheadle) heavy machinery. Virgil and Turk Malloy (Casey Affleck and Scott Caan) get a few hilarious moments as they brew up a revolution in a Mexican plastics plant, while Rusty (Brad Pitt) and Danny coolly preside over the action like omniscient, infallible deities, always about three steps ahead of the game. The villain's downfall is utterly satisfying due to the pure capitalist evil channelled by Pacino, while Ellen Barkin vamps it up as Bank's "cougar" of an assistant. The camaraderie of the thirteen lends heart to these cool criminals, best captured by the sappy letters Basher sends Reuben, which ultimately bring him back to life. Vegas is effectively captured through seamless editing and beautiful photography, with the trappings of uber-wealth making the fantasy even more fantastical.
