So I saw Ocean's 13 this weekend.

Ocean's 13 end

Let me first say how letdown I was by the second. The first Oceans movie was classic, and the second one was too drama-filled an hokey. I won't spoil anything (although if you haven't seen that movie by now you probably never will) but basically in Oceans 12 they straight up waste a good 45 minutes of your time. They show you a huge heist and then show you why none of what you just watched mattered.

I remember being very excited for 12 and let's just say it didn't deliver.

Thirteen improved a lot by getting back to the original's formula. They need to pull of the heist and you see the process from planning to execution. There's some over-the-top bits sure but they don't wander far from the heist itself which is nice. It's also nice that they went back to a casino setting...in the second they had to steal some egg or whatever which I thought was pretty lame.

Anyways, go check it out if you get a chance. This wasn't a very good review at all but I just wanted to say that it was pretty good. Much better than the second.

*edit* - This left-align garbage really needs to go.
