Not as bad as some people make it out to be

Rating: 9/10 (1 July 2012)

This is one that I recently watched again and I watched it right after re-watching the first.
This film stand up as a solid sequel to a great film, sure the first one (well, the re-make I should say) was the better of the three, but does that mean that this one isn't good? No, it doesn't.
The story picks up some time after the first and focuses on the 11 trying to gather up money to repay their old nemesis Terry Benedict, who's still angry at them for robbing his casinos.
While working in Europe, they encounter a fellow thief who wants to compete in a heist, stating that if Ocean and his team out smart him and beat him in an almost impossible heist, he would pay off their debt.
I found the story to be intriguing enough and it held my interest. I enjoyed the fact that the entire cast of the first returned in this one. It seemed weird that it focused on some of the characters much less this time around, but it also focused on others more, such as Linus and the Malloy brothers which I'll admit I did enjoy.
If you liked the first one with George Cloony and the gang, I highly suggest this one. Don't expect it be JUST like the first, but at the same time don't go in expecting a bomb, because this one was actually pretty good.
