Pirates 3, Ocean's 13 and Vacancy

A great conclusion to the series, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End was terrific fun. A fairly incomprehensible plot did not spoil the frantic action and witty dialogue that made the film a joy to watch.

Not so Ocean's 13. A pathetic script and wooden characters that even the great actors could not make it anything but boring. A challenger for worst film of the year.

Vacancy was a good thriller. Although a standard man and woman in peril formulae, it was still had believable characters, sharp direction and plenty of twists and turns. Simple fodder maybe, but that's OK.
