Ocean's 13

Just got back a little while ago from seeing Ocean's 13. I saw it at Gator Cinemas, which seems to be a little known secret here in the Ville. I think they only have four theaters, but it only costs 5 bucks. Whenever I can I try to go there instead of Butler or Newberry. It's behind the Oaks Mall if you want to give it a shot. Anyhoo...the movie. I have to say I was disappointed. It seemed kind of slow and forced. I didn't really like the acting of Eddie Izzard. I was really, really really looking forward to seeing this movie. Allysha can tell you how excited I got when I saw the trailer for it before The Departed. (The Departed is amazing! If you haven't seen it, please please please watch it.) Ocean's 11 and Ocean's 12 are two of my favorite movies, so I've had opening weekend of Ocean's 13 marked for a while. I'm not saying it's a bad movie, it just didn't quite meet my expectations. It also didn't help that the two girls behind us talked throughout the whole entire movie. They felt the need to comment about every little thing that happened. "Oh, they're in a toy store." "Hey, it's Matt Damon." "Oooh, I saw this part in the trailer."

p.s. Right now I'm in the middle of listening to the album Back To Black by Amy Winehouse. It's really good; you should check it out. While listening to it, it's hard to believe she's British. She has a really raspy, extra soulfoul quality to her.
