Ocean's Twelve
When their past catches up with them, Danny Ocean and his crew are forced to pull more jobs. Unfortuantly they are too "hot" to work in the US. So they leave the country and head to Europe, not knowing what lies ahead. When they get to Amsterdam they get jobs, money, and more suprises than they can handle.

So since I am a huge fan of Ocean's Eleven, watching Ocean's twelve was more like a rule that a wish. The entire movie seems more Steven Spielberg that Steven Soberberg. The close friend I watched the movie with remarked "it seem like a completely different director. I couldn't even tell it was him." Maybe it was becuase it was written by a completely different screenplay writer. Mostly I like the movie. But it was a tad bit too confusing. And the way the plot keeps changing is enough to make anyone go mad. The feel of the movie was more or less like The Italian Job than Ocean's Eleven. But for a sequel, it was good. And what they make Julia Roberts dress up as is enough to make your dad cry. I'm still freaking out about it...

The movie grossed over $184 million in it's entire box-office run.

I saw Ocean's Twelve last thursday. It was sweet. Everyone is right... it isn't at all like the first. I would almost argue that it is better. I love that Soderberg plays with visual styles. But, I wouldn't compare him to Speilberg. I also thought there was just enough plot twist... maybe a little on the unbelivable side, but I can dig. yeah
