Plausibility is the first casualty in Ocean's Thirteen but it's unlikely anybody is going to care.

Top CriticIt may be way too clever for its own good, yet Ocean's Thirteen has plenty of ring-a-ding-ding.
06/08/07
Top CriticBut while it’s an improvement on the last movie, Ocean’s 12, it’s not quite in the same league as the first film, Ocean’s 11, principally because the storyline is the same and the sheer buzz of seeing so many megastars sharing the same screen has worn off
06/08/07
Marks a return to form after the self-indulgent tomfoolery of its globe-hopping predecessor, even if the revenge heist scenario now feels very tired.
05/28/07
pure entertainment, [as] bright and shiny as perfectly restored vintage neon
06/06/07
Though "Ocean's Thirteen" sticks to Las Vegas, rather than the lush palazzos of European cities, the atmosphere is still a privileged one where our heroes carry out another ultra-hip caper.
06/08/07
A sequel (or three-quel, if you will) that returns to the vicarious fun of the first movie, Ocean's Eleven, and all but erases the not-so-fond memory of the preening ego-trip that was Ocean's Twelve.
06/07/07
Ocean's Thirteen plays to known quantities, but with a graceful sense of ease and a sparkly smile a mile wide...one of the best cinema experiences of the year.
06/07/07
Soderbergh regains the balance he found in the first film and, in some ways, even improves on it.
06/08/07
While it in no critical area improves upon the magic of its deliriously watchable original installment, it's flashier and funnier than expected.
01/02/08
After the story's wheels are set in motion, you pretty much know everything that's going to happen, but director Steven Soderbergh makes it fun to watch your winning hand unfold.
06/07/07
The suits are sleek, the dialogue snappy, the tone wry, the jazz hip. Even Las Vegas--bastion of neon kitsch that it is--looks opulently graceful.
06/20/07
Evocatively shot with the saturated color of '60s film and accompanied by David Holmes' retro-mod score, Ocean's Thirteen is a boy's-night-out lark that girls can enjoy.
06/07/07
This is a gang of thieves that we could hang out with again and again.
06/22/07
Ocean's 13 knows everybody loves to see the house lose, which is what makes watching the gang rig the casino to go bust so fun.
06/07/07
You can beat the house and you can break the bank, but sequels always get long odds on defeating the law of diminishing returns -- yet Ocean’s Thirteen just about pulls it off.
06/06/07
Top CriticA renewed focus and sense of fun have returned to the proceedings.
07/25/07
Though it takes a little while before it really takes off, this slick bauble of a movie qualifies as the best of the summer 'threequels" -- at least thus far.
06/08/07
Top CriticThe action starts with the opening scene so there’s never a chance for it to slow down.
06/07/07
Ocean's Thirteen is as lazy and laid-back as a softball game with the beer keg at second. And it's just as enjoyable.
