Oceans of good fun!

Rating: 7/10 (19 November 2007)

After the sorrow disappointment that was Ocean's Twelve, I was not at all interested in seeing Ocean's Thirteen since I had a feeling it was just going to be the same thing again. But when people were seeing this film, I was hearing good things about the film. So I figured I would just wait until the rental, I just watched this film yesterday and still, I'm not a huge fan of the Ocean movies, but Thirteen is a good movie. The cast really looked like they had a great time making the film and Al Pacino was a great addition, he makes such a great bad guy. For once, I have to say that Matt Damon actually did a great job in film, I know people are going to bash me for that, but he never keeps my attention in films, but he had a great role to play in Thirteen and was a great comic relief. The story is continued with our hunky heist men.
The gang is now suffering paying back the millions that they stole from Terry, so they're not exactly in the mood to get back together any time soon. But when one of their own is betrayed and double crossed by the new man in Vegas, Will Banks, they are out for revenge. Since Will is making a huge splash, he has a casino, a hotel, and millions of dollars worth of diamonds, the boys have to got to find a way to get to his heart. They band together to get this guy back and get their old schemes back in play.
Ocean's Thirteen was a lot of fun to watch, it had a bunch of twists and turns at each point. I think my favorite part though was when Matt Damon was posing as Pepperidge and he was seducing Bank's assistant, even though it was a silly moment, it brought a lot of comic relief and the girl was just so funny. Not to mention how they got the diamonds out of the casino was so cool and was great eye candy. The cast did a great job and Thirteen is definitely worth the look. It was a whole lot better than Twelve, let's hope they keep it that way.
7/10
