Now I think I speak for pretty much everyone when I say that Ocean's Eleven was an extremely entertaining film but clearly the same can't be said for Ocean's Twelve which came off looking far too laboured in comparison to the earlier film.

Which is why I'm happy to reveal that Ocean's Thirteen is really in the same spirit as the first film, it's a movie that's found its feet.

It's identified what the fans like best and has delivered exactly that. Ocean's Thirteen has got a simple plot – Danny Ocean and his boys come together to seek revenge on behalf of their friend and their mentor.

Here's a film that's as smart-talking and as clever as the first film. It's really just about the boys hanging out and doing what they do best.

I think the success of these films really comes down to the fact that they don't pretend to be anything that they're not.

They're created with the sole intention of giving you a good time when you're in your seat and they don't disappoint.

One of my favourite scenes in the film is the one with Matt Damon and his rather inconvenient disguise.

It's three out of five and a recommendation not to miss Ocean's Thirteen if you're looking for an evening well spent at the movies.

Rating: 3/5

Since I am a fan of the first two movies I expected a funny and thrilling film. What carried the viewer through its predecessors (great retro design, music etc.) now isn't enough for a really good movie. The story itself could be summed up too quickly. The preparation for the big thievery starts almost from the beginning of the film and it's justification is really poor. What can be really enjoyed are the colorful visuals and a bunch of stars that seem to enjoy themselves. All this prevents a worse vote. To me it seems that Hollywood is running out on ideas at the moment. Sequels are obviously attractive from a financial point of view but bear the risk that they are produced and conceived not careful enough.
