Too disjointed story structure. Tried to be too smart. Never equalled the brilliant smoothness of the terrific original.

Rating: 7/10 (10 February 2020)

They tried to make a great sequel and they failed. BUT nevertheless it is still a mildly enjoyable heist movie, despite being less good than the original Ocean's Eleven, which was absolutely brilliant.
The bad: too disjointed story structure. The story basically is a mess and almost incomprehensible and silly near the end. There are simply too many loose scenes that dont add anything to the story. There are 2 villains now instead of one. There are 2 romances now instead of 1. There are 2 heists now instead of 1. Double cross upon double cross. They multiplied everything, they added things and added even more things on top of that, but that made the story only more chaotic and less coherent. What a mess...
The good: judged by each of the scenes individually, they are often still funny and well acted by terrific actors. I mean, what a dream cast of stars! Lots of good tongue in cheek jokes. Seductive female powerplay with Catherine Zeta Jones added to the mix, next to Julia Roberts.
I would still NOT recommend it to anyone, unless you wanna pass the time and you have nothing better to watch...Simply REwatch the original, because the original is heavenly, this movie though is only a failed copycat...
