Oceans 13
Blog Entry #6
Oceans 13 is a movie directed by Steven Soderbergh and released in theaters in 2008.
Oceans 13 is the third movie the Oceans movies (11 and 12 the other two). This movie is a high stakes all to take movie filmed in the city that never sleeps Las Vegas. Big time casino owner Willie Bank (Al Pacino) makes a deal with his partner Reuben (Elliott Gould) to open a luxuary hotel and casino, but when Reuben does the leg work Bank double crosses and Reuben has a stroke. That rubs Danny Ocean and his (George Clooney) crew the wrong way and go to work to bankrupt Bank’s casino. All bets are on.
The best part of the movie is watching the cast of all-star actors gelling together and making this film work. Watching this movie I couldn’t tell that there were any eagos from the actors themselves. The charachers they play within the movie are cheesy, but they are right on the money and that’s what makes the movie funny.
This movie is a see because of the hard hitting Vegas action and also some of the biggest actors in Hollywood today that dazzle the mind in trying to break the Bank.
I was glad to see Ocean's 13 reviewed, however instead of just mentioning the other 2 Ocean's maybe you could have provided a little insight in to which you thought was better? I personally think Ocean's 12 was a waste of my time. Also, make sure to copy and paste your review into word to check for grammatical errors and awkward sentences/fragments. This had quite a bit of both.
ReplyDeleteGood start on the review, I like that you mentioned it is a sequel, but maybe mentioning some of the characters or plots that have carried over or are new would have been helpful. Likewise, I wish you would have gone into a bit more analysis - not a lot, but some. I like how you talk about how all the actors work together so well despite the fact that they are all big name actors working together
