terrible... so disappointed.

Just perfect...

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

I'd say Ocean's Twelve is a decent film in my opinion. But here's one major issue I noticed.I feel like the reason why this movie didn't do as well as Ocean's Eleven was because the story focused so much on the romance between Rusty and Isabel. The audience were expecting to see more of the crew to carry out a clever heist and steal the most valuable item locked inside a fancy location. Sadly, it was a lot less than what we wanted.

Ocean's Twelve is the weakest film in the Oceans trilogy. However, despite the move to Europe, this film has most of the ingredients the first one had, making it still an entertaining viewing. It just didn't feel right when watching it, but does become a key part of the continuous storyline that plays throughout the three films; making it a must watch for fans of the first. I have to mention the Julia Roberts/Julia Roberts scene was just bad. It probably seemed like a good idea at the time, but the fourth wall break was unnecessary for a quick laugh that really just throws the film momentarily off par.

One of the reasons that the first "Ocean's" movie was such a success was that it was full of "Vegas Style" that really gave it an edge. While this second effort lacks that suave style, it still manages to be exciting and keeps you guessing until the very end.For a basic plot summary, "Ocean's 12" begins with Terry Benedict (Andy Garcia) wanting his money back. In order to come up with those kind of funds, the now-infamous thieving gang led by Danny Ocean (George Clooney) and Rusty (Brad Pitt) must take their act overseas and face off against a formidable foe in the burglary business. This time, however, Ocean's wife (played by Julia Roberts) has a bigger role in the proceedings.The reason this film manages to still hold up under the huge success of its predecessors is two- fold:1. The interplay between the characters is still excellent and quite funny. It must have been a hoot to film this one, as it sure seems as if all the main players had a great time with each other.2. The plot continues to move forward and never gets predictable or stale. It might not quite have the "flash" of the first one, but it still is entertaining (especially as it gears up for the climax).Overall, "Ocean's 12" is a solid (if less spectacular) follow-up to the glitzy original. A 3.5 star ranking would be more accurate, but it is closer to four stars than three.

Ocean's Twelve is the sequel to the hit film Ocean's Eleven released in 2001. Starting into the film, it takes place where the crew flies to Europe in an attempt to pull off quick heists in order to pay off Benedict. There, they find out they are up against a mysterious character who is thwarting their plans for some unknown reason. They have to find this person and stop him before Benedict's deadline. They are also being pursued by a clever detective, Isabel Lahiri (Catherine Zeta-Jones), who is close to arresting them. I was willing to put up with this unbelievable nonsense for a time, but my breaking point came when the film actually has Julia Roberts portraying Tess Ocean, who, in turn is portraying Julia Roberts as part of a plot to get close to a guarded treasure in a museum. I don't think this could ever work, but in order for it to have a chance, wouldn't Julia Roberts have to at least establish the character of Tess Ocean first? It ruined the film as a whole and became quite over the top and silly at this point.One of the things you need in order to have a successful heist movie is a good heist, or a good confidence scheme. Here, the big heist at the end of the movie turns out to be an afterthought. It is a throwaway heist shown as a flashback. The acting is casual, at best. The big problem is screen time. There is only enough of it for Clooney, Pitt and Matt Damon. Most of the others in the all-star cast, like Bernie Mac, Don Cheadle, Elliott Gould, Carl Reiner, Andy Garcia and Roberts, have very limited roles.
