One redeeming quality...

Rating: 6/10 (24 May 2005)

There is only one redeeming quality in this film, that would be the superb acting quality of Vincent Cassel. His turn as the "Night Fox" is superb, he outshines the "stars" in the film. Bravo, Vincent, bravo! Other than Cassel, the rest is flat. Yes, Catherine is beautiful, to be expected. As is Pitt, which is also to be expected. Clooney is flat, Roberts is outshone by Catherine (which isn't hard to do BTW). Bernie Mac is underused, as is Cheadle. Andy Garcia was good, anything less would be uncivilized. But again, Cassel is the gem in the picture, hopefully if there is a Ocean's 13 they will beg him to come back and use his talent more and not call him "Mr. Monica Bellucci" in interviews. The locations are beautiful, how could they not be seeing as it was shot completely on location?
