    The first one was bad enough, I won't see #2 or this, it looks terrible.
    If...
    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
    Ron loves a film = don't even rent.

    Man Ron, our movie tastes are about as opposite as they come it seems...

    What didn't you like about the first one?

    I was too tired to comment on the third last night, but I really like it. It was just as sharp as the first one, and had a very simply straight forward plot, unlike the second one. Everyone was back (Minus the women - It isn't their fight ;)) with a few new faces. Great sound, great picture, great acting. Wasn't over the top witty like the other's, but that made it all the more sharper for me.

    If you enjoyed the first one, you will love this one. But, if you were like Ron, and hated the first one, you'll probably want to pass here :)

    Overall, a great movie and will be added to my collection as soon as it hits DVD.

    Too long, too full of itself. It really could have used about 30 minutes less film time.
    There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    Big Disappointment...

    This series has played itself out, I would not give this a 4 out of 10... VERY predictable, performances were called in I thought...

    Would not recommend even renting this movie...

    The second one was one of the biggest pieces of lazy garbage to be created in the past 15 years, I can't imagine why anyone would want a third.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I thought the original, circa 1960, was really entertaining.

    Ocean's 11 the best...I definately liked 13 better than 12. 13 ressembles 11. 12 felt different to me.

    Overall I'd say 7.5 out of 10.

    I watched it last night and enjoyed, Much better then the 12 and about as entertaining as 11.

    I couldn't help but chuckle at the decision to use the extended scene with Eddie Izzard early in the film to go over the plans. Attention audience: this is what's gonna happen! It seems that almost everyone got lost in 12. :)

    I think they should quit now.

    I haven't seen it but I love Eddie Izzard-he cracks me up.
