Movie Review: Ocean's Thirteen.  

Posted by: Rowena in , , , , ,


Starring: George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Scott Caan, Casey Affleck, Don Cheadle, Bernie Mac and a lot of other guys.
Rating: PG-13
Grade: B-
What are the odds of getting even? Danny Ocean and the gang would have only one reason to pull off their most ambitious and riskiest casino heist--to defend one of their own. But they're going to need more than luck on their side to break The Bank. Ruthless casino owner Willy Bank never imagined that the odds were against him when he double-crossed Danny Ocean's friend and mentor Reuben Tishkoff, putting the distraught Reuben in a hospital bed in critical condition. But Bank miscalculated--badly. He may have taken down one of the original Ocean's eleven, but he left the others standing and, worse for him, gave them a shared purpose: to take Bank down on the night of what should be his greatest triumph--the grand opening of his new casino, appropriately named The Bank. Their strategy is twofold. First they will ruin him financially by turning the tables on the precept that the house always wins. But that's just money. The knockout punch will be to Bank's personal pride and joy: his reputation as the only hotelier who has earned the Royal Review Board's Five Diamond Award on every single one of his hotels. The plan is elaborate, dangerous and damn near impossible--but there are no limits when it comes to one of their own.

Alright so I netflixed this movie a few weeks ago and I'm just getting around to watching it this weekend...and I don't know how I feel about it. It was good to see everyone back together again and it was great to see them all working together again to avenge Rueben's honor or whatever and I enjoyed watching it but did I love love love it the way I did the other movies?

Nope.

Did I hate the movie beyond measure and am pissed off that I wasted those two hours of my life that I won't ever get back?

Nope.

I guess I'm just indifferent to the whole movie. Brad Pitt still looks good, George Clooney was extra handsome and I was even digging Matt Damon and his sexy nose (okay not the nose but MD was lookin' good too hot diggity dammit!) I enjoyed the brotherhood between Ocean's 12 and it was hilarious to see them bring Andy Garcia into the plan and be part of the team...unofficially..or whatever.

I was annoyed with Al Pacino and was glad that they did him dirty...I was jumping for joy when they totally did him in on that first day, their revenge on him had me laughing.

One thing that totally creeped me out though was Emily Berkin's cleavage in this scene.


PUKEY!

She should never ever wear low cut blouses with her fake boobs and her disgusting looking chest...ugh, it was horrible, me and my nephew Chance were looking at her in that dress and totally embarrassed for her because she has a terrible looking chest, its so hot damn nasty.

EWWW!

Poor Matt Damon and his sexy butt had to sit there and film scenes with her while her fake boobs were all just sitting on top of her chest with the stretched skin, looking all gross and ugly and just disflippin'gusting!

Was this movie good? Meh, yeah it was cool, I guess...but it's not the best Ocean's movie but it's still heaps better than Elizabethtown. =)

I totally agree, this movie was just "meh," to me too. O11 was definitely the best one, in my opinion. :)

Oh and MD's good looks was totally abused with his fake nose. *sigh* What a shame. LOL.

I didn't care for this either. The first one is the best.

I haven't seen this one yet. :P I'm still looking forward to it though because my Matt Damon crush is stronger than ever. LOL Did you guys see those Jimmy Kimmel/Sarah Silverman/Matt Damon/Ben Affleck videos? LMAO

Grace,

Totally..I mean, it reminded me of how I felt after watching Jumper, when we were walking out of the theater and we just felt..blah about it all? That's how me and Chance felt after watching this one. I need to add better movies to my netflix queue. Seriously!

Izzy,

The first one is my favorite too...although I remember liking the second one too.

Ames,

Don't rush to watch this one since it's just okay...and MD's nose makes more of an appearance then his regular good looks, haha. And YES! I have laughed at all of those videos, gotta love them! The MD was hilarious but then the BA one with ALL those celebrities had me crackin' up too! haha.

oh yeah, the BA video was hilarious. I like how he got all those celebs in there. :P

Exactly!! And I so agree about the boobs. When your boobs should get a credit in the movie, you know you've got a problem.
