Ocean's 13

Image
Released : 24 may 2007 Bbfc rating : pg A brilliant end to the oceans trilogy that sewed up the story while try in to forget the last one as much as possible. It was a lot more interesting on top of that with an actual heist this time with a good story behind it and finally some actual night fox doing something in a ocean's film. It also has more to offer than the last one with shuttle humour and a lot more actual heist work. The cast are back and are still great with George , Brad and Matt doing an amazing job with excellent support from Andy Garcia. If there was any way the films producers and writers could do to return from the last film they have done the right job with this brilliant watch Contains mild language My rating 8.2/10

Ocean's twelve

Image
Released 10th December 2004 Bbfc rating 12 The disappointing and unnecessary sequel to the large success of oceans eleven, oceans twelve was a total let down and no where near a better story. The main problem with the film is that it is very jumpy with no real objective in the plot and a lot of sudden changes to what was available. The cast however are still very good in what they where doing with the same attitude to the last film but where let down by the story. I did like the villain of the film but unfortunately there was not a lot to the night fox so he was quite a small role in the whole of it. Over all it could have been a lot better but it is what it is Contains mild bad language My rating:6.7/10

Ocean's eleven (2001)

Image
Bbfc rating : 12 Released: 7th December 2001 A movie unexpected in its quality and an all star cast to rival saturday night live oceans eleven is a well done film being one of the all time greatest heist films made. With superb acting from the likes of George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Matt Damon it is a very enjoyable film that is good for a relaxing but yet well concentrated evening. Ocean's eleven is a film that can mostly lose you at points and give you humour at others but is a very well done film in a very underappreciated genre of film at the time and does well to stand out 15 years later and still one of the greatest hiests in a film ever seen  Contains infrequent bad languge. My rating 8.5/10

Star trek (2009)

Image
  Released: 8th may 2009 Bbfc rating : 12 The welcome return to the franchise after around 7 years of unrest and anticipation for the return of everybody's favourite sci find film ( unless your a star wars person ). J.J Abrmas does well to bring it back along with an excellent cast of newbies to the films such as Chris Pine and Zachary Quinton and the return of Leonard Nemoy to make all thwe fans cheer. The film is very pleasing with a lot of action for the mainstream but enough nervousness for the trekkys. The film does well to set up the story for the continued trilogy and is certainly very enjoyable and at some points quite funny. Nevertheless it is thoroughly interesting and entertaining and it will keep you hooked for the full run time my rating: 8.9/10 Contains violence, bad language and fantasy violence In memory of Anton yelchin (1989 - 2016)
