    Default Ocean's Twelve

    Not as good as the first one. There wasn't a real plan in this one. The Julia Roberts/Bruce Willis scenes were just lame. And what's up with Matt Damon's mom just showing up and taking him out of jail like that?

    I thought the Bruce Willis/Julia Roberts scenes were funny.

    As for Matt Damon's mom showing up and taking him out of jail. Well, he called his mom so that she can show up and take him out of jail. Simple.

    I havent seen this one but i hated the Ocean's 11.
    There was no suspense for a heist film. Everything went too smooth.
    Probably not gonna watch this in theaters but might rent it on DVD.

    The whole point of these movies ain't exactly about whether they get those stuff or not, but rather, how they get it while having fun. If you don't find the interaction between all these big-name actors infectious and fun, then it's not really your type of movie.

    As for the Julia Roberts as Julia Roberts thing. That's an in-joke.

    People in this forum are so humourless these days.

    I like the Julia Roberts pretending to be Julia Roberts thing, thought it was hilarious.

    I just don't understand how Matt Damon's mom can just take him out of jail like that ..

    Overall, this one isn't as good as Ocean's 11 but I still like it.

    I don't know. I thought Matt Damon's mom is a bigwig cop or something, so she helped out her son.

    I loved both Ocean's Eleven and Ocean's Twelve.

    I love both Oceans however, i think it's mainly due to the cast.

    Love Brad Pitt's character.

    I wanted to see it really bad... but when I saw it... It just wasn't all cracked up to be... I mean it wasn't good, but it wasn't bad... it was just something... I didn't like it a lot but my significant other did. He said it was suspenseful & all... I guess...

    i agree. i had been waiting for this moviee a lonG time. and then on the first day it came out..i went to watch iT. and weLL..i liked the movie. but it wasn't as good as i expected it to be. mayb my expectations were too high since ocean's eleven was really good. but i guess overall..it was still a pretty good movie...i still liked eleven better tho.

    Didn't watched Ocean's Eleven, but did manage to catch Ocean's Twelve. Brad Pitt was so cool and so were Catherine, she's simply georgeous!

    11 was better, but 12 was good too. All the plans seem really possible. i'm just not uses to movies where there is lots of money and not a single person died..... And all these people, anyone of them could be millionaires legally witht their skills......why not go legit?

    Most of the time part 2 of any movie is always suck. The only few movies i can thinks of it was T2, Aliens, but that movies got a good director.
