Brian’s Rating       

Ocean’s Thirteen is not as good as Ocean's Eleven, and not as bad as the Ocean's Twelve, but I still love watching George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and Matt Damon make these movies. They look like they’re having so much fun, you can’t help but enjoy yourself!

Ocean’s Thirteen brings our merry band of thieves back together again to avenge the foul treatment of their Dutch uncle, Reuben, played by Elliot Gould. The story introduces Al Pacino as yet another evil casino owner and brings back Andy Garcia’s character from Ocean’s Twelve.

I thought too much time was spent explaining the technology of the con at the expense of showing our favorite players in actions.

And, I missed Julia Roberts, who appears in the first two Ocean's, but is absent from this one.

Other than that, I had a pretty good time. And wait until you see Ellen Barkin in that red dress.
