The Wizzles:

Acting: The acting was good but not great. It's hard not to compare Ocean's 13 to its predecessors but Ocean's Eleven was a lot better in terms of acting. Some of the characters could have been planned out better in terms of their role in the plot and sub plots. As usual, there were a couple surprises in the movie but they weren't played off too well. Super Dave Osborne made an appearance in the movie and his acting stank. Acting: B
Story: It was a pretty busy story to follow in the beginning. I liked the way it flowed into the middle and ending. Its all about revenge and getting the team together to make it work. The build up to it was nice but some parts were a little hard to imagine as being half true which became distracting. I think that there was a little too much going on here and there with some of the subplots. The real catcher in this part was that it was in Vegas. Story: B-
Direction: Confusing in the beginning but easy to follow after that. The ending could've have been a little more surprising and suspenseful. Its your typical Ocean's 11/12 movie. Direction: B+
Visuals: The visuals were pretty cool. They put up a hotel in Vegas where there wasn't any. It was cool. I think they could have made the casino look a little bigger, like a real one, and look a little more exciting. The casino looked like it was done in a studio at times but that's just me. Visuals: A-

Overall: 4 out of 5 Wizzles.
The Wizzle liked this one but only because Ocean's 11 and 12 were lovely. This movie was so hyped that Wizzle was a little disappointed and too critical. Besides, my popcorn tasted like doodoo.
