Ocean's Thirteen is the third (and according to Director Steven Soderbergh, final) film in the "Ocean's" trilogy. It follows on from the 2004 sequel Ocean's Twelve and the 2001 picture Ocean's Eleven, a remake of the 1960 Rat Pack film.
When Reuben Tishkoff (Elliott Gould) makes the mistake of building a hotel with one of Las Vegas’ most hated businessmen, Willy Banks (Al Pacino), he gets cut out of the deal and ends up in the hospital after a heart attack. Danny Ocean (George Clooney) tries to help his old friend out by giving Banks a chance to restore Reuben’s share of the hotel, but the vindictive Banks dismisses him without any regard. Six months later, with Banks’ investment thriving as the richest hotel in the city and the ultimate spot for high rollers, Ocean and his crew decide to bring him down in epic fashion. With the help of their former nemesis, casino owner Terry Benedict (Andy Garcia), who is also out to settle the score against Banks, his fierce rival, they scheme to find a way to bankrupt Banks on his casino’s opening night. This time, they are not in it for the money, but rather for revenge. It will be released in America and the UK on June 8th, and Australia on June 14th.
