Consensus: Ocean's Thirteen reverts to the formula of the first installment, and the result is another slick and entertaining heist film.

Synopsis: The third installment of Steven Soderbergh's slick, star-studded heist series just might be the best, as Danny Ocean (George Clooney) and company pull off another elaborate caper, this time in the name of revenge.

The third installment of Steven Soderbergh's slick, star-studded heist series just might be the best, as Danny Ocean (George Clooney) and company pull off another elaborate caper, this time in the name of revenge. Reuben Tishkoff (Elliott Gould), one of Ocean's original eleven, lies nearly comatose after a myocardial infarction brought on by shock. His dreams of regaining his former glory on the Vegas strip have been dashed by the dastardly Willie Bank (Al Pacino), with whom Reuben foolishly went into business to build the biggest and flashiest casino the the world has ever seen. Bank took Reuben for all he was worth, and now, the famously loyal thirteen won't rest until Bank has been brought down. They execute this noble cause through complex, daring, and brilliant machinations that make the most of everyone's talents, including Yen's (Shaobo Qin) acrobatics, Linus's (Matt Damon) acting abilities, and Basher's (Don Cheadle) heavy machinery. Virgil and Turk Malloy (Casey Affleck and Scott Caan) get a few hilarious moments as they brew up a revolution in a Mexican plastics plant, while Rusty (Brad Pitt) and Danny coolly preside over the action like omniscient, infallible deities, always about three steps ahead of the game. The villain's downfall is utterly satisfying due to the pure capitalist evil channelled by Pacino, while Ellen Barkin vamps it up as Bank's "cougar" of an assistant. The camaraderie of the thirteen lends heart to these cool criminals, best captured by the sappy letters Basher sends Reuben, which ultimately bring him back to life. Vegas is effectively captured through seamless editing and beautiful photography, with the trappings of uber-wealth making the fantasy even more fantastical. [More]

These actors have the characters they play down pat, and as long as they come up with some reason to pull off a heist, I'll be watching.

Ocean's Thirteen is one long set-up for a wholly unsatisfying and impotent climax.

While it in no critical area improves upon the magic of its deliriously watchable original installment, it's flashier and funnier than expected.

Like a few dirty martinis, you won't remember much of it the next day, but it was pretty fun while it lasted.

Basically, what you get with Ocean's Thirteen is more of the same, but less.

I think it's safe to say most will find the magic is back in Ocean's Thirteen.

The "Ocean's" series started out popping like the Bellagio. With "Ocean's Thirteen" it has gone as dead as CircusCircus. On a Tuesday afternoon. During a Shriners convention.

What Soderbergh thinks is 'style' looks like a travelogue advertising Hell.

...a great diversion from, and a fine addition too, the three-peats filling up the local cinemas.

A cocky and condescending indulgence test for anyone who hasn't automatically bought into its faux-cool suave.

Though Ocean and the rest of the sexy squad have to act like they're desperately dedicated to what they do best to get the job done, the whole technically intricate production comes off as more play than work.

When a movie keeps you this entertained without insulting your intelligence, it's hard to complain.

somewhere between the locker room ass-slapping, the bland heist plot develops, as if it really matters
