Soderbergh's Ocean's Trilogy Is Finally Getting The 4K Blu-ray Treatment
You'll be able to watch these delightful, star-studded heist flicks in the best possible quality at the end of April.
Steven Soderbergh's Ocean's trilogy is now a couple decades old, but they've aged spectacularly well--all three of these flicks are a breeze to watch thanks to the likable ensemble cast and Soderbergh's sure hand as a filmmaker. And at the end of April, finally, you'll be able to get Ocean's Eleven, Ocean's Twelve and Ocean's Thirteen on 4K Blu-ray for the first time ever.
The 4K discs for each of these movies hit stores on April 30, and you can preorder them now from Amazon. Each disc is listed at $40 right now, but you can expect that price to come way down before they actually release, and they'll automatically adjust the price of your order downward if and when that happens.
Ocean's Eleven 4K UHD Blu-ray
This first film sees the recently-released-from-prison Danny Ocean and pals rip off a Las Vegas casino owned by Terry Benedict (Andy Garcia), who just happens to be dating Danny's ex-wife Tess (Julia Robert). But this isn't personal or anything (yes it is). While all three of these movies are a delight thanks to the immensely entertaining ensemble, that first one is still the most tightly plotted of the trilogy.
Ocean's Twelve 4K UHD Blu-ray
Danny and co. are back, and they've gotten themselves into a competition with a famous French master thief called Toulour (Vincent Cassel)--they need to steal a particularly expensive Faberge Egg before LeMarc does. This one is less straightforward than the last one, as it's got twists on top of twists as well as some significant meta humor--like having Tess, played by Julia Roberts, pretend to be Julia Roberts as a distraction. And it's the rare movie in which the climax happens without you even realizing it. Amazing.
Ocean's Thirteen 4K UHD Blu-ray
Danny and the gang return to Vegas for a new casino heist, and this time it is personal--one of their own had tried to open a casino only to get pushed out and lose everything to a nefarious fella named Willy Bank (Al Pacino) during construction. So the heist crew wants to ruin this new hotel/casino's opening, and basically everybody who's shown up in this franchise gets involved, including the villains from the first two movies, Terry Benedict and Francois Toulour. As a farewell movie, it doesn't get much better than this.
