Ocean’s Thirteen Movie

Posted on 02.25.09 9:48PM under Fun and Games

Ocean’s Thirteen was released in June 8, 2007 which was known as World Ocean Day in the United States. It was one of my favorite Hollywood movies. It was such a star-studded film where some of the best actors in Hollywood have come together to be a part of a great movie. It starred George Clooney (Danny Ocean), Brad Pitt (Rusty Ryan), Matt Damon (Linus Caldwell), Andy Garcia (Terry Benedict), Don Cheadle (Basher Tarr), Bernie Mac (Frank Catton), Ellen Berkin (Abigail Sponder), Al Pacino (Willy Bank), Casey Affleck (Virgil Malloy), Scott Caan (Turk Malloy), Eddie Izzard (Roman Nagel), Eddie Jemison (Livingston Dell), Shaobo Qin (”The Amazing” Yen), Carl Reiner (Saul Bloom) and Elliott Gould (Reuben Tishkoff ). It was directed by Steven Soderbergh.

The plot was basically to avenge the injustice committed against Reuben Tishkoff. Reuben and Willy Bank, the most hated businessman of Las Vegas, made a deal to build a new hotel and casino in Las Vegas. Danny Ocean warned Reuben about his dealings with Bank but Reuben never listened. After securing his deals for Bank, Reuben was asked to sign off his share to Bank leaving him with only a $10,000 poker chip. When he looked at the chip, the name on it was no longer “The Midas” as what they agreed but was replaced with “The Bank”. Reuben suffered a heart attack due to the stress he experienced from his financial loss. “The Thirteen” then gathered to plan the revenge against Bank.

Other hotels of Bank have already been awarded the Five Diamond Award, the highest honor granted to a hotel. Part of the plan was to prevent The Bank from winning it. They also rigged slot machines, progressive jackpots and blackjack dealing machines.
