is this what passes for acting these days?

Rating: 1/10 (7 July 2005)

OK..Ocean's 11, the original, was not citizen Kane, but at least it had charm and the natural ability of the rat pack could not be totally contained regardless of the weakness of the endeavor. This movie, perhaps as much as any, vividly shows why Turner Classic Movies has such good ratings, and why so few of today's actors and actresses come even close to measuring up to their predecessors. Evidently someone has come up to the conclusion that if a few good looking, well primped up people are gathered together, and place them in the ultimate cool setting of Las Vegas Boulevard, they would somehow radiate and attract the audience's undivided attention. Whoever thought that was wrong.
