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

Reviews for Ocean's Thirteen
1 - 20 (sorted by source; Australian critics are listed first)
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 CriticAn intriguing heist.
06/16/07
Actors having a good time plus Soderbergh's style and lush Vegas imagery compensate for the plodding prelude to the heist.
06/16/07
After two other movies in the series, Ocean's Thirteen doesn't exactly feel fresh, but what's cool is that it doesn't feel stale either. This is the rare movie series where the third entry is just as much fun as the original.
06/12/07
A genial time-waster.
09/12/07
Creative scheming, in-jokes and movie star charm. That's really all we have here; essentially, this is heist movie porn.
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 still feels like one trip too many to the craps table, playing the same hunches, with the outcome unimaginatively clear from the start: Categorical victory for the rascally good guys, utter defeat and humiliation for the villain.
06/06/07
Ultimately, if you give yourself up to its manufactured charm, it all becomes comfortingly familiar.
06/07/07
A victim of its own pedigree.
06/15/07
Ocean's 11's easy chemistry and effortless style return alongside the let's-take-down-a-casino plot.
06/07/07
Whereas previous Ocean's films have delighted in crossing their audiences, Thirteen barely tries. And when the clever turns predictable ... well, it's no longer clever.
06/09/07
A renewed focus and sense of fun have returned to the proceedings.
07/25/07
As ever the chemistry between the lads -- especially Clooney and Pitt -- keeps the rhythm snappy, and this time, the emphasis on friendship and loyalty makes them easy to root for.
06/05/07
It is, in essence, one long caper from start to finish. And while it makes almost no sense (and never pauses for a minute to think about it), everyone's having a ball -- and this time, the audience is included.
07/14/07
Upping the ante in terms of intrigue while toning it down in terms of action, this downright comfortable diversion is a relatively-cerebral affair which offers an absorbing alternative to the summer blockbusters of the over-stimulating, special effects-dr
06/09/07
This might be the first piece of escapism to have a whiff of public service at its heart.
06/08/07
A pastry of a movie, airy, insubstantial, and meant to fill in the gaps between heartier meals.
04/23/09
It’s not often that the third in any franchise lives up to the reputation of its predecessors. Here Steven Soderbergh pulls it off by trumping the lackluster number two in the series and returning to the upbeat ambience and freshness of the first one.
