I really liked the Ocean’s 11 remake from a couple of years ago, when I heard they were doing a sequel Ocean’s 12 I was a little surprised. The main premise of the film is that Terry Benedict (Andy Garcia) the bad guy from the first film has tracked down the 11 and issued them with an ultimatum which basically amounts to ‘Give me my money back or you die’. The cast again is amazing, they managed to get Catherine Zeta Jones to join the cast. She plays the Interpol agent that is assigned to the case of the Grey Fox and just happens to be Brad Pitt’s old love interest.
The story is clever, and how things pan out is not obvious so in that respect they did a good job. However some bits seemed either to fast or too slow. Also they decided to make Julia Roberts pretend to be Julia Roberts which I thought was a bit silly, Bruce Willis even made a little cameo which was kind of funny.
On the whole I did enjoy the film, if you liked the first film this will go down well.
