dropped the ball

Rating: 4/10 (12 December 2004)

In my 22 years of life, I have never fallen asleep in a movie theatre, until today. I loved Ocean's Eleven, but this movie failed at every point where the previous Ocean film was successful. It was extremely boring. It was one of those movies where a lot of stuff is happening, so you have to pay attention, but the film is so boring, it is nearly impossible to pay attention to the film. One thing this film asks you to do is pretend that the characters you are watching, are not quite the same as the characters in Oceans Eleven. First off, when Benedict comes after them demanding his money, all the characters flip out, like they are completely scared to death of Benedict, but in the first film, they behaved as though they had no fear of him. It is little inconsistincies like this tha make this film a "wait for video" kind of movie. I was highly disappointed. It you want to watch a new fun sequel, go see Blade Trinity. 4/10
