Fantastically smug, empty picture, which comes complete with a nasty-tasting dab of misogyny.

Consensus: Ocean's Thirteen reverts to the formula of the first installment, and the result is another slick and entertaining heist film.
Theatrical Release:08-06-2007
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... [More]

Reviews for Ocean's Thirteen
Top CriticThis is Soderbergh’s point: that fiendishly clever new gadgets can work with old-fashioned morals to brilliant effect. We forget that at our peril. This point alone is reason enough why Ocean’s Thirteen is the best of Soderbergh’s heists.
05/25/07
Top CriticSure, it couldn't be much more self-indulgent, but the fun is infectious.
06/02/07
You can beat the house and you can break the bank, but sequels always get long odds on defeating the law of diminishing returns -- yet Ocean’s Thirteen just about pulls it off.
06/06/07
Top CriticMarks a return to form after the self-indulgent tomfoolery of its globe-hopping predecessor, even if the revenge heist scenario now feels very tired.
05/28/07
Thematically, though, this is an improvement on its forebears, mainly due to the way it deals – much like Scorsese’s best work – with the archaic nature of the criminal set.
06/08/07
Top CriticAs ever the chemistry between the lads -- especially Clooney and Pitt -- keeps the rhythm snappy, and this time, the emphasis on friendship and loyalty makes them easy to root for.
06/05/07
Top CriticThere is one small bit of good news about Ocean's Thirteen: it's not as bad as Ocean's Twelve. But when you consider just how dismal the latter was, this nugget will hardly be cause for rejoicing.
06/08/07
Returning to Las Vegas but losing its winning streak, Ocean's Thirteen lets Soderbergh and the boys take a final bow while proving it is possible to have too much of a good thing.
06/08/07
Top CriticBetter than the disastrous sequel.
06/19/07
Funny, finely-tuned and flashier than an Essex boy on a night out in Romford . . . GO SEE!
06/08/07
Trapped by the very conventions it created, Ocean's Thirteen is a disappointing fake. One last job? Sure… but it's a hack job.
06/08/07
But while it’s an improvement on the last movie, Ocean’s 12, it’s not quite in the same league as the first film, Ocean’s 11, principally because the storyline is the same and the sheer buzz of seeing so many megastars sharing the same screen has worn off
06/08/07
If Ocean's 13 could treat theaters like clubs then they'd place bouncers at the doors so that only the cool people would be let in. That would definitely cut into profits but it would be in keeping with how the film would like to brand itself...

Ugly. Filmed through dirt. Danny’s Dead End Kids infiltrate bin Laden’s camp and hold him ransom for some old dude who rescued them from an orphanage.
06/10/07
All the reasons that I didn't like the first two installments in the Ocean's series were the elements that worked for me this time around.
06/18/07
The sleek script makes gleeful use of expository dialogue, building ludicrous situations and winding its way out again.
06/07/07
There's actually a coherent script, and there are some real laughs. Not big laughs, mind you, but a fairly steady stream of smiles and chuckles. And their newest caper is, as expected, fiendishly complex and outlandishly executed.
06/06/07
Can audiences still be entertained by this baker's dozen beating unbeatable adversaries, breaking unbreakable safes, or crashing uncrashable security systems? I still am.
06/05/07
Vremena su se promijenila, ali sre%u0107om, ne toliko da dana%u0161nje filma%u0161e sprije%u010De da prave kvalitetnu holivudsku zabavu.
