A disappointment

Rating: 3/10 (10 June 2007)

It really says something about a movie when Clooney, Pitt, Damon, and the rest can't even make it partly interesting. OK, I admit that 13 was better than 12- which doesn't say much- but I completely disagree with those who say it was better than 11. The problem is, 13 was simply boring. There was no tempo, no pace- and, oh yeah, no plot. Actually, 11 didn't have much of a plot either, but the perfect tempo and witty humor dazzled you so much that you didn't even notice. In 13, the most exciting thing is a fake nose. I personally think it's a travesty to have Al Pacino in a movie- Al Pacino!- and give him about 2 lines, and bad ones at that. There was almost none of 11's humor. 12, while confusing and generally bad, at least was mildly interesting, if only because most viewers spent the whole time trying to figure out what the heck was going on. Overall, Ocean's 13 disappointed me- and I would definitely never recommend it.
