Ocean’s 3/8 – 4.5

I say 3/8 because I only last 45 minutes. When a plot is so formulaic, not to say stupid, you count on enjoyable performances to keep you interested. Unfortunately, the all-star cast was as flat and unconvincing as the plot. Sandra Bullock is a fine actress, but a compulsively criminal mastermind she is not. Cate Blanchett is rarely my favorite, and her shaggy hairdo, a la Jennifer Lawrence in Red Sparrow, did not a character make. Little spark anywhere, lot of absurdity everywhere.
