Fracture



  • Directed by Gregory Hoblit
  • Starring Anthony Hopkins, Ryan Gosling, David Strathairn
  • Anthony Hopkins's role as a successful engineer Ted Crawford is so familiar. It's like watching Dr. Hannibal Lecter playing games with the detective again. Despite solid performances of the casts, I think the twist at the end is not good enough. I had thought it would be more complicated. Had it be, it would be more fun.

Ocean's Thirteen



  • Directed by Steven Soderbergh
  • Starring George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Al Pacino, Ellen Barkin
  • The movie's only major flaw is that there are literally no real obstacles to Ocean's 13. We never get any doubt that the group wouldn't succeed. Apart from that, the talented cast supplies the movie with classy humor and charm. It would have been nice if it is more exciting, though. -Comment written by Dear.
