Ocean's Thirteen (2007)

Plot of Ocean's Thirteen

Ocean's Thirteen DVD CoverIt's bolder. Riskier. The most dazzling heist yet. George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and more reteam with director Steven Soderbergh for a split-second caper that stacks the deck with wit, style and cool. Danny Ocean again runs the game, so no rough stuff. No one gets hurt. Except for double-crossing Vegas kingpin Willy Bank (Al Pacino). Ocean's crew will hit him where it hurts: in his wallet. On opening night of Bank's posh new casino tower The Bank, every turn of a card and roll of the dice will come up a winner for bettors. And they'll hit him in his pride, making sure the tower doesn't receive a coveted Five Diamond Award. That's just the start of the flimflams. The boys are out to break The Bank. Place your bets!

OCEAN’S THIRTEEN

ROLLS ONTO DVD THIS NOVEMBER 13 FROM WARNER HOME VIDEO

 

Includes dazzling performances from George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and Al Pacino

 

Ellen Barkin and Al Pacino PictureBurbank, CA, September 5, 2007 – Prepare for a wild, high-stakes heist on November 13th, when Ocean’s Thirteen spins onto DVD from Warner Home Video. Director Steven Soderbergh (Traffic, Ocean’s Eleven, Ocean’s Twelve) returns with a few aces up his sleeve to helm the third installment of this all-star series and deals a winning hand to create the perfect concoction of good looks, wit, and action on this highly anticipated DVD.  

Ocean’s Thirteen stars Academy Award Winner George Clooney (Syriana, The Good German), Academy Award Winner Matt Damon (Good Will Hunting, The Bourne Supremacy), Academy Award Winner Al Pacino (Scent of a Woman, Godfather), Academy Award Nominee Brad Pitt (Babel, Seven), Academy Award Nominee Don Cheadle (Hotel Rwanda, Crash), and Academy Award Nominee Elliot Gould (American History X, Ocean’s Eleven, Ocean’s Twelve).  Rounding out the ensemble cast are Casey Affleck (Good Will Hunting, Ocean’s Eleven, Ocean’s Twelve), Bernie Mac (Transformers, TV’s The Bernie Mac Show), Ellen Barkin (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Man Trouble), and Scott Caan (Friends with Money, Ocean’s Eleven, Ocean’s Twelve).

 

Ocean’s Thirteen pulls the audience on another whirlwind ride with the smoothest con men in town, but this time the gang is here to settle the score with ruthless casino magnate, Willie Bank (Al Pacino). After Reuben Tishkoff (Elliot Gould) suffers a heart attack and lands in a coma, Bank gutlessly cheats Ruben out of a partnership and dupes him for all his worth. Now it’s payback time as leader Danny Ocean (George Clooney) and Rueben’s most loyal friends do all they can to bring Bank down. Captured through Soderbergh’s unique vision, Vegas will never be the same!

Review of Ocean's Thirteen

I do not know what else to say that the above synopsis and press release have not already said. This is a fantastic movie, with non-stop action and some great performances from some great actors such as George Clooney, Matt Damon, Al Pacino and Brad Pitt (as well as Elliott Gould and Bernie Mac). So instead of writing a long review about how I liked it, then we will just leave it at that. I liked it, you should see it, end of story.  To make it better, this DVD also includes a bunch of cool featurettes, such as going on a walking tour of the casino with Jerry Weintraub.  There is also a documentary entitled "Vegas: An Opulent Illusion," which was interesting (although not a must-see).  On the HD/DVD is an added extra documentary "Masters of the Hiest" which looks pretty cool.  So get the DVD (or get all three).
