Luck Be a Lady Tonight.

Rating: Null/10 (25 July 2007)

The third installment in director Steven Soderbergh's "Ocean's" saga. This time Elliott Gould is nearly frightened to death with strong-arm tactics by crazed casino magnate Al Pacino. Thus our cast of demented heroes come together to get even with Pacino and his top assistant (Ellen Barkin). Cleverly conceived flick by the all-world director does not waste much time with exposition, but rather starts the ball rolling and does not let up until the end. Could have worked as a silent picture just as well as one with sound. Soderbergh continues to amaze me with his risk-taking film-making techniques. To me, it is like he is just experimenting here with "Ocean's 13" and not even trying to make a cinematic masterpiece. It is fun and highly unique in its own special way and it matches the substance and style of the second installment and also compliments the original well. David Paymer is priceless in a short part as a critic who has his share of problems. 4 stars out of 5.
