I thought this movie was really bad! Packing a movie with stars does not necessarily make it good. There is a running gag through the whole movie about how much Julia Roberts' character (Tess) looks like Julia Roberts. This gag gets so old and downright stupid that it really frustrated me. I guess it was supposed to be cute and cheeky for Julia's character to goof on the real Julia, but the scene with Bruce Willis doing a cameo as himself is truly asinine!
The first movie has Danny Ocean's crew pulling off an elaborate con, and when it is revealed how they pulled it off, the viewer kind of has a surprised and elated "Eureka Moment." In this movie, the elaborate con is so elaborate and drawn-out the viewer is looking for the solution just to get it over with.
The most stinging con job pulled off in this movie is that the viewer loses his admission/rental cost!
Oh, one good thing I can say about the movie however is that the score kicks butt! There is a retro cool feel to it, and there's even a section that has a nice "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" riff in it. Great score! Crummy movie.
