Movies review OCEAN'S TWELVE Tess is the new eleven. This is one great show. Mr Benedict has dug out the ones who robbed his Bellagio casino vault. He is enraged. He has his insurance covered, but he is not about to take all this lying down. He wants the eleven to pay him back; plus 106 million interest. They've got 2 weeks. But they're short of money. To pay off all that money, they'll need to pull off a job every week, and they still wouldn't have enough until a year later, probably. The eleven have elaborate plans to rob. But things aren't as rosy with Europol agent Isabel Lahiri hot on their heels. Neither is it when Midnight Fox is trying to challenge them, wanting to beat them at the job to prove he's the best thief. The first time they steal, Midnight Fox beats them to it. Then, they have to steal an egg (expensive jewellery, you idiot) in a challenge with MF. If they win, he'll pay off the money they owe Mr Benedict. After lots of effort put in and a lot of difficulty, they get the egg; and are arrested. They're looking to be put behind bars, but are miraculously let out free. It turns out Linus' mom, in the police, could save them. Even more amazing is the fact that, they had already stole the egg a long time ago. The elaborate planning stuff was just a show to put on for MF. They win the challenge and MF pays off the debt for them. But the most enjoyable is not the storyline - it's the cast and the chemistry among them. Their banter is enjoyable, the jokes are natural, some parts are silly but do not come across as being lame. There is impeccable cooperation within the cast, giving the show a great natural touch. Everyone is charming in his/her own way, and they blend together wonderfully despite their obvious differences. This is a fabulous production. Worth 5 out of 5 stars. =) posted by Yee 1:45 AM . . .
