Ocean's 12

I wasn't planning on seeing this, but given that the group was headed to see Blade Trinity, I convinced them all otherwise. Nobody was really expecting this to be as awesome as it was. I really can't stress enough how much I liked it...

The story didn't feel as good as the last time around, but there were some great twists thrown in for good measure, and plenty of great camerawork to boot (if not a bit shaky).

The look of the movie was stylish, the editing pace was stylish, and the whole damn presentation was flawless.


If you don't see this immediately I will vomit in rage
 
Re: Ocean's 12

I saw it, I saw it! NO VOMITING!!!

I wouldn't say flawless, though. I liked it mostly, but I thought it kind of fell apart a little at the end. Like they were showing off just how convoluted they could make it. Also, I guessed that you-know-who was what they were to that other person (trying not to spoil it for others).

Same here! Just got to find out what girl I want to take out, or which one likes me. Maybe none of them. I guess I'll take the blind girl out. ;)
 
Re: Ocean's 12

Oceans 11 had that one acrobatic asian dude, is he still going to be in it? Or are they going to cut his character out because he ain't Jackie Chan. I'm curious.
 
Re: Ocean's 12

I can answer your question bout the asian dude tomorrow night bluespider haha. I don't think he's in this one though. Yeah and he's no Jackie Chan :D

Yes indeed.

Tried to see it opening night, but even the dead theatre was packed. I'll probably catch it this weekend.
 
Re: Ocean's 12

Very cool flick. I agree with the statements on the editing, which was my favorite part of the film. I also like the dialogue between Bruce and Damon. I won't post it, but when you see it I know you guys will get a chuckle out of it. Oh, and the OST is great. I'm really digging tracks 2 and 9 right now. Track 2 is the perfect heist music.
 
Re: Ocean's 12

Glad to hear to Soderberg takes the helm again. I can't wait to see it. :)
 
Re: Ocean's 12

NO LOVE FOR TWELVE

I honestly felt

A.Weak story, tried to make it more than it was.(but have an all-star cast and who cares)

B.Ending was to easy and had no- "oh thats cool" or even any way of you looking back and saying wow that was a smart move....

C.Who could have missed the constant backlighting, hopefully it was the screen I was watching because man who was is in charge? No style points when I cant make out who is who becuase the hotel window is blown out....

D.Editing was not edgy enough for a timeline movie- they should rent hmmm SNATCH! Thats a timeline movie where things come togather.

E.They only thing they stole that night was my $9.50

F. Oh yeah they are all on the run and Andy Garcia shows up and says pay me..... than they all say OK? No fear involved or reason just because he said so.....

Sorry Guys not at all impressed with that flick!
 
Re: Ocean's 12

Seen it tonight and I personally dug it. A few plot holes but hard to find a heist movie without some.

Ya - This nagged at me the whole movie too! A little hard to swallow. ::)

Ending was a tad weak - But all in all I thought it was pretty good. 8)
 
Re: Ocean's 12

I haven't seen it yet, but I'm not expecting it to be uber-brilliant. Should be good, clean fun though ;)
 
Re: Ocean's 12

:-/ Upon further reflection on this I'm changing my vote to crap. I must have been tired...

There is a hole in the plot the size of the Grand Canyon that renders the entire movie pointless.  >:( (I wont say what it is as it's a spoiler)
 
Re: Ocean's 12

I'm going to try to see it this weekend, I want to see if I see the plot hole.
 
Re: Ocean's 12

Are you kidding me? Garcia shows up and says "Pay Me"? And they all say; "Oh gee willikers, okee dokee?"

That is lame
