Ocean's 12

Ocean's 12 is the sequel to the 2001 version of Ocean's 11. In this outing, the team is back but this time it's under pressure from Benedict to return the money stolen from the casinos... with interest. It seems that someone in the know has ratted out the team and now they have to scramble to make up the money they've spent and make some more. Unfortunately, big jobs are hard to come by.
Eventually, they discover the identity of the man who ratted them out, a formidable burglar known as the Night Fox. It seem the Night Fox got his nose out of joint because his mentor, another notoriously good burglar, praised Ocean's job over the Fox's. So, the Night Fox proposes a contest to see who pull of the best job, with the pay off of Benedict in the balance.
Unfortunately, the plot never really gets any more realistic from there (as if it were realistic before this point). Complications include a wave of arrests of Ocean's team and the investigations of a highly competent Europol detective (Catherine Zeta-Jones), a woman from team-member Rusty Ryan's (Brad Pitt) past.
While reasonably fun to watch if you switch off your brain, there's too much that just kind of makes you say "Aw, c'mon."
I'll give this movie a C.

Ocean's 11 (2001)

The 2001 remake of Ocean's 11 is a better crafted movie in general than the 1960 version. The plot hangs together better. The characters are better written and balanced into an ensemble rather than a Rat-Packer star vehicle. The plan isn't really any more realistic, but it is far more complex and interesting to watch. Overall, the 2001 version is a better movie on most counts... unless you're just a big Rat Pack fan. Which is OK.
Ocean's 11 2001 has Danny Ocean (George Clooney) as a long-time criminal, into burglaries rather than violent crime, fresh out of jail. He assembles a team of fellow professionals (rather than army buddies) for a complex heist at 3 Las Vegas casinos, all run by same ruthless man, Terry Benedict (Andy Garcia). Here, the main plot complication is Ocean's ex-wife (Julia Roberts) who happens to have become Benedict's girlfriend and might be able to blow the lid off the whole operation.
One interesting aspect of this movie compared to the first is that Las Vegas, between 1960 and 2001, has become corporate and much cleaner in general. Gone is the edge of the mob and guys skimming the till. It has been replaced by full-blown spectacle, powered by gobs and gobs of cash.
Overall, I give the movie a B.

Ocean's 11 (1960)

The original version of Ocean's 11, from 1960, stars the Rat Pack as a bunch of old army buddies (airborne specifically) who have hit upon a plan to rob 5 casinos of a load of money led by Danny Ocean (Frank Sinatra). The plan itself is fairly simple, go in and rob the places in a blackout at the ringing in of the New Year. The real trick comes in keeping the plan and the identities of the team secret as well as sneak the money out. The main plot complication comes when the casinos (remember that at this time the casinos and hotels on the strip were all run by mobsters) hire an experienced thief, with ties to one of Ocean's team, to get the money back.
The movie isn't a particularly spectacular example of a well-crafted plot or exceptional acting. Most of the actors don't seem to be playing roles in particular, those that actually have well-defined roles rather than just guys walking around in suits. The movie's charm comes from the interactions of the Rat Packers, particularly Dean Martin and Sammy Davis, Jr., with the environment around them. You get an impression of the dangerous glitz of Las Vegas at its taboo heights.
I'd give the movie a C+.

Scotland, PA

Scotland, PA is the story of MacBeth told in the setting of a 1970s small town burger joint. While capturing the slide into guilty madness of both of the MacBeths, the movie is also played up with a lot of humor, particularly with McDuff as played by Christopher Walken, the witches who are revisioned as hippies including Andy Dick, and a foul-mouthed Pat McBeth played by Maura Tierney.

I give it an A.

One Hour Photo

One Hour Photo stars Robin Williams at his creepy best as a lonely photo processor at a mall department store, obsessed for years with a young family who has pictures processed there. There are some very nice scenes dealing with his awkward over-familiarity with the family.
Given good writing, there's very little that Robin Williams can't do as a character actor. He's very impressive.
I’d give it a B+.

Breaker Morant

Breaker Morant stars Edward Woodward and Bryan Brown as Australian soldiers up for court martial during the Boer War. They and another junior officer are essentially being scapegoated by the General Staff as the war winds down to mollify German supporters of the Boers. It’s based on a true story that originally appeared as a play. Their counsel is inexperienced in defending in a court, he's a solicitor and not a barrister, yet puts up a passionate and unexpectedly strong defense. I’ve watched it several times and I have to say that it’s one of the best courtroom dramas I’ve ever seen.
After watching this movie and Gallipoli, you'll wonder why the Australians have any fondness of the British at all...
I give it an A-.
