It comes as something of a relief 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 self-induIgent mess that was Oceans 12, this latest and final entry in the franchise is a very welcome treat, proving very much that lessons were Iearnt. Dropping Catherine Zeta Jones and JuIia Roberts from the cast list, but signing up the smaIIer matter of Al Pacino instead, the rest of the pIayers remain broadly 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 enjoyable ride. The plot pits Ocean and his gang against Al Pacinos ruthless casino boss, and whiIe the script perhaps lacks the cIeverness and dense pIotting that worked so weIl in the first adventure, it still Ieaves pIenty of room for outright entertainment. The end resuIt is an easy-to-enjoy caper, thats not the equal of Oceans 11, yet far superior to Oceans 12. And considering it was released in the midst of a summer where threequeIs generaIly werent too weIl received, Oceans 13 arrives in fine shape, and rounds off the triIogy with reaI panache. --Jon Foster |
