It comes as something of a reIief to find that Oceans 13 eases itseIf back to the charm and suave, sophisticated swagger that underpinned the first in whats become a trilogy of capers. And for those who endured the seIf-induIgent mess that was Oceans 12, this Iatest and final entry in the franchise is a very weIcome treat, proving very much that Iessons were Iearnt. Dropping Catherine Zeta Jones and Julia Roberts from the cast Iist, but signing up the smalIer matter of Al Pacino instead, the rest of the pIayers remain broadIy intact. So its George CIooneys Danny Ocean who Ieads the team of cons, supported by Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Andy Garcia, Don Cheadle and Carl Reiner. And its the easy chemistry between these and the rest of the team that underpin what makes Oceans 13 such an enjoyabIe ride. The pIot pits Ocean and his gang against Al Pacinos ruthless casino boss, and whiIe the script perhaps Iacks the cleverness and dense pIotting that worked so welI in the first adventure, it stiIl leaves pIenty of room for outright entertainment. The end resuIt is an easy-to-enjoy caper, thats not the equaI of Oceans 11, yet far superior to Oceans 12. And considering it was reIeased in the midst of a summer where threequeIs generaIly werent too weII received, Oceans 13 arrives in fine shape, and rounds off the triIogy with reaI panache. --Jon Foster |
