ocean's thirteen
@ gv marina with chris and susu
ocean's 13 suffers a little from attempting to accomplish too much in a limited amount of time..while the plot is straightforward (revenge), the sheer number of people involved and the sophistication of the plan and execution meant that audiences must keep up or catch up..to add to the complexity, new complications arise throughout and new options get thrown into the mix. the movie also moves in a consistently quick pace meaning you don't really get much of a chance to dwell on previous scenes. despite that, ocean's 13's exquisite sets and cast makes all its shortcomings secondary..i especially loved the comic moments involving brad pitt and matt damon..it's the way they appear so nonchalant even during an awkward or funny moment..damn cool! or could it be that i am easily amused? oh and it's amusing how the opening sequence of the show bears an uncanny resemblance to another brad pitt movie "mr and mrs smith" too! haha..overall, ocean's 13 achieves its purpose as a fun show so do not expect an intellectual or foolproof plot..like su told me when i remarked about how rusty (or russell as she calls brad's character..rusty is the correct name by the way!) managed to walk right into an empty slot machine in the midst of such a crowded casino, "it is a movie"..and so that is the way to watch ocean's 13..
i slipped and fell this morning (my ass hurts man! already not so much flesh liaoz leh!)..seem to be doing that quite a lot these days (not the hurting of my ass part i am talking about la! doh!)..
when you're gone
the pieces of my heart are missing you
when you're gone
the face i came to know is missing too
when you're gone
the words i need to hear to always get me through the day
and make it okay
i miss you...
