Ocean’s Thirteen on DVD

Good things come in threes.  Although this is hardly ever the case in films and sequels, Oceans Eleven and it’s two follow-ups have been enjoyable treats.  Here’s our review for Ocean’s Thirteen now available on DVD.

“Is that… are you… are you watching Oprah?”

The third entry into the series finds Danny (George Clooney), Rusty (Brad Pitt) and the rest of the gang out for revenge when one of their own is taken advantage of by an unscrupulous casino owner (Al Pacino).  For more on the basic plot and performances check out my film review or Ian’s review.

I got a kick out of this flick and it’s still looking like the coolest film of 2007 so it’s an easy recommendation for me.  Would I like better extras?  Sure, who wouldn’t, but at least they took some time to put something extra on the disc this time.  Is it a great DVD?  No, but it’s a great film on a DVD, so that makes it worth it in my book.
