Three Thirds

Summer is always an important time when it comes to movies, but this summer takes the cake for me. One of the big attention grabbers is the number of trilogies that will finally come full circle with the release of their third and final parts. Three of these have me really excited.


I love cartoons, and this is by far one of my favorites. I have already made plans to see it this Friday.


Any movie that seats George Clooney next to Matt Damon and Brad Pitt already has my vote for best movie of the summer. The first two Ocean movies kept me laughing and on my toes (especially the museum scene with Julia Roberts. Priceless!) and from what I can see of the final Ocean movie, it will be just as entertaining as the first two movies, which is quite a feat for the third film in any trilogy.


Last and MOST DEFINITELY NOT least is the Bourne Ultimatum. If you have a man in your house, then you have probably seen the Bourne movies over and over. They are a favorite of my dad's and at any given time one of them is probably playing on the TV in my living room. As I said before, I am a huge fan of Matt Damon, and the Bourne Ultimatum also includes Julia Stiles, my favorite actress.

So as you can see, it's going to be a great summer for trilogies! Take some time to get your kids out of the house or sneak your sweetheart away to share some popcorn and great laughs while watching one of these great movies.

Oh, and while you're shopping for great thirds, make sure not to see Spider Man 3. It's definitely more of a rent it later movie.
