'''''Ocean's Twelve''''' is a 2004 American [[heist film|heist]] [[comedy film]] directed by [[Steven Soderbergh]] and written by [[George Nolfi]]. The second installment in the [[Ocean's (film series)|''Ocean's'' film trilogy]] franchise and the sequel to ''[[Ocean's Eleven]]'' (2001), the film features an [[ensemble cast]] including [[George Clooney]], [[Brad Pitt]], [[Matt Damon]], [[Catherine Zeta-Jones]], [[Andy García]], [[Don Cheadle]], [[Bernie Mac]], [[Julia Roberts]], [[Casey Affleck]], [[Scott Caan]], [[Vincent Cassel]], [[Eddie Jemison]], [[Carl Reiner]], and [[Elliott Gould]].


''Ocean's Twelve'' was released theatrically in the United States on December 10, 2004, by [[Warner Bros. Pictures]]. The film received mixed reviews from critics and grossed $362.9 million worldwide, becoming the [[2004 in film#Highest-grossing films|tenth-highest-grossing film of 2004]]. It was followed by ''[[Ocean's Thirteen]]'' (2007), with Soderbergh and most of the cast again returning.
'''''Ocean's Twelve''''' is a 2004 [[film]] that takes place after the events of the 2001 movie ''[[Ocean's Eleven (2001 film)|Ocean's Eleven]]''. Like its predecessor, the film is directed by [[Steven Soderbergh]] and stars [[George Clooney]], [[Julia Roberts]], [[Brad Pitt]], and [[Matt Damon]]. The film was released in the United States on [[December 10]], [[2004 in film|2004]].


== Plot ==
The film is rated [[PG-13]] in the U.S., [[12A]] in the [[United Kingdom]], [[OFLC|M]] in [[Australia]] and [[PG]] in [[Canada]]. As with the first film, there is no sex, violence or strong subject matter and it was the inclusion of a few choice sexual swear words uttered in a non-sexual context that upped the film to a more commercial rating. A sequel, ''[[Ocean's Thirteen]]'', is set to follow in June, 2007.
<!-- Per WP:FILMPLOT, plot summary should be between 400 to 700 words. -->
Terry Benedict locates all eleven members of [[Danny Ocean (character)|Danny Ocean]]'s crew, demanding they return the $160 million [[Ocean's Eleven|they stole from his casinos]] plus $38 million in interest. He gives them a two-week deadline to return it or he will either get them all arrested or killed.


Short by half the amount, the group schemes to stage a heist in [[Amsterdam]] to avoid problems with U.S. authorities. Saul decides not to participate since he is too old for another grand heist. They are tipped off by an informant named Matsui about the location of the first [[stock certificate]] ever issued. After a complex series of schemes, they find the document has already been stolen by master thief the "Night Fox".
'''Tag line:''' ''Twelve is the new eleven''


[[Europol]] detective Isabel Lahiri is called in to investigate the theft and realizes that she gave Rusty the idea of how to solve a complication of the heist with a description of a similar burglary during their earlier relationship. Surprising the group at their accommodation, she warns them they cannot beat the Night Fox or his mentor, the mysterious master thief "LeMarc",<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.dailyscript.com/scripts/oceans-12_roughdraft1.pdf|title=Spelling of "LeMarc" from the script}}</ref> both of whom excel in the "long con", and steals Rusty's phone. She has been hunting both for years.

Danny and his crew discover that the Night Fox is François Toulour, a wealthy French [[baron]] and [[gentleman thief]] with a villa on [[Lake Como]]. Danny goes to the villa and steals Toulour's paintings. Confronting Toulour, Ocean learns that Toulour exposed their identities to Benedict (breaking the code of silence among thieves) and hired Matsui to inform the crew about the stock certificate so as to meet with Danny. Toulour is outraged when LeMarc suggested Danny may be a better thief than him, so he challenges him to steal the [[Imperial Coronation (Fabergé egg)|Imperial Coronation Fabergé egg]]. If Danny and his crew win, he will pay off their debt to Benedict.
==Plot synopsis==
{{spoiler}}
At the opening of ''Ocean's Twelve'', the eleven members of ''Ocean's Eleven'' are living their lives separately off the fortunes of their [[Las Vegas, Nevada|Vegas]] [[casino]] heist in the first film. Terry Benedict ([[Andy Garcia|Garcia]]), the owner of the three casinos, confronts each member of the team in turn, demanding the team return his money, with interest. Benedict gives the team two weeks to come up with the money, which amounts to the original $160 million plus $38 million interest for a total of $198 million. The Oceans Eleven members don't have enough and are short 97 million which they must get in 14 days or they are "dead men".


The crew begin to plan an elaborate heist to swap the egg for a [[Holography|holographic recreation]], but Toulour gives the camera recordings from his villa to Lahiri, who deduces that they want to steal the egg through an intercepted phone call to Rusty. She then captures most of the crew except Linus, Tarr, Turk, and Saul.
Ocean and the team decide to stage another heist to pay off the debt. Being too hot to work in the United States, they pick a European target: the world's oldest [[scripophily|stock certificate]], which was issued by the [[Dutch East India Company]] in 1602, and is kept in [[Amsterdam]]. Ocean's Eleven manages to breach the security around the certificate, but a rival thief, the "Night Fox" ([[Vincent Cassel|Cassel]]), beats them to the document.


Linus comes up with a second plan involving Danny's wife, Tess, posing as a pregnant [[Julia Roberts]] in order to get close to the egg and swap it. They are foiled by Lahiri and a coincidentally present [[Bruce Willis]], and the rest of the group members are captured. Lahiri is told that they are to be [[extradition|extradited]] to the U.S., while Linus is chosen first to be interrogated by the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] agent assigned to collect them. The agent is actually Linus's mother, who organizes the release of the whole gang. She points out to Lahiri that she will face consequences for forging a signature on a Europol form to obtain the necessary arrest warrants for Ocean's gang.
As it turns out, The Night Fox is the one who revealed the identities of the Eleven to Benedict. The Fox is incensed that his mentor, the retired thief Gaspar LeMarc ([[Albert Finney|Finney]]), failed to correct a businessman who claimed that Ocean's Eleven casino theft as one of the best thefts ever committed. The Fox breaks "rule number one" (revealing another thief's identity) in order to lure the team to Europe, where he can propose a challenge: the theft of a [[Fabergé egg]]. Both Ocean's Eleven and the Night Fox will attempt to steal the famous [[Coronation (Fabergé egg)|Coronation Egg]] within a week; the first to succeed will be declared the better thief. If Ocean's team wins, the Fox will pay off the team's debt. With no other options, Ocean accepts the challenge.


Sometime later, Danny and Tess return to Toulour's villa, where Toulour expresses glee at their failure. He explains that he stole the egg at night using his agility and dancing skills to evade the museum's heavy security. Toulour's celebration is short-lived when Danny reveals that his group stole the real egg while it was in transit to the museum, and Toulour realizes they were tipped off by LeMarc.
Meanwhile, a [[Europol]] detective, Agent Isabel Lahiri ([[Catherine Zeta-Jones|Zeta-Jones]]), hears of the increased theft activity in Amsterdam. She forges her superior's signature on a request form in order to procure enough resources to track down the Eleven. Eventually all eleven members are captured, but are released when Linus' mother, masquerading as a U.S. official, manages their extradition.


A flashback reveals that Danny and Rusty had met LeMarc earlier when he revealed his [[confidence trick]] intended to humiliate Toulour and, at the same time, restore to himself the Fabergé egg that he had stolen years ago but returned following his wife's wishes. Toulour is forced to admit that Danny won the bet and gives him the money for the debt to Benedict.
Later, at the Fox's home, he delights in explaining how he was able to steal the egg. Ocean then reveals the truth: the contest was over before it began, and the egg that Fox stole was a fake. Ocean and associate Rusty Ryan ([[Brad Pitt|Pitt]]) had previously visited LeMarc and learned the location of the real egg: traveling by courier to the museum exhibition. Using a scuffle to stage a distraction, the team steals the egg in transit and replaces it with a replica, however they go through the motions of a museum heist to throw off the Fox's surveillance. The Fox is crestfallen, and Ocean gets the money that The Night Fox had given to LeMarc to hold in confidence when the competition was first proposed.


As the crew pay back Benedict and promise not to perform any more heists in his casinos, Toulour is seen in the background spying on them. Rusty takes Lahiri to a safe house that he claims has been lent to him by LeMarc. There, she is reunited with her father, who is revealed to be the man she has been pursuing for years: LeMarc.
It is not until the end that the viewers realize that LeMarc was actually the mastermind behind the entire operation. By deliberately making the Night Fox feel inferior to Ocean's Eleven, he manipulates the Night Fox so that he enters into a competition with Ocean's Eleven. This is "the solution to all our problems" that he alludes to in the meeting with Daniel and Rusty. The Night Fox is the mark, and Ocean's team are essentially the pawns of LeMarc. Their task is to acquire the egg relatively simply, and then get caught. This convinces the Night Fox that he has won, although the contest is just misdirection. Another goal of LeMarc is to be re-united with his daughter, Agent Lahiri, who had thought her father had died over a decade previously.


==Cast==
The result of the entire adventure is that Ocean's Eleven is now in the clear with Terry Benedict; the extraordinarily talented Night Fox is disgraced (both in fortune and in reputation), and LeMarc is reunited both with his daughter and with the Fabergé egg he had stolen years earlier. This illustrates the artistry of LeMarc, and why he is regarded so highly amongst those who perform the [[long con]]; This is the reason LeMarc is so apologetic to Daniel and Rusty, and he claims "I'm still getting the better of you" at the end of their meeting.

==Running gags==
===The Twelve===
{{cast list|
This film is considered a form of [[metafilm]]. One of the [[running gag]]s in the film and an example of the metafilm idea is Frank's character, played by [[Bernie Mac]]. In both movies Bernie Mac's character likes to have both manicures and pedicures with nail polish in nail salons.
* [[George Clooney]] as [[Danny Ocean (character)|Danny Ocean]], an ex-con who leads his group in a heist across Europe
Another running joke is that other characters remark that Tess Ocean bears a striking resemblance to a famous person who is not mentioned until near the end of the film ([[Julia Roberts]]). In one scene, Linus talks with Rusty and starts to say "Don't you believe Tess looks like. .." and Rusty stops him before he can say more, simply replying "look, it's not in my nature to be mysterious, but I can't talk about it and I can't talk about why." To take the joke further, Tess later impersonates her; this breaks the [[fourth wall]], as Tess is actually played by Julia Roberts. This is brought home when Julia Roberts, playing Tess, is complaining about the Julia Roberts role she is expected to perform and tells Matt Damon's character, Linus, "No, you're playing a role, I'm apparently playing a real person!" When the group encounter [[Bruce Willis]] (playing himself), Bruce gives Tess (impersonating Julia Roberts) his mobile phone to call her house, and the "real" Julia Roberts picks up the phone at the house. To take it one step further, the film's credits read "and Introducing Tess as Julia Roberts."
* [[Brad Pitt]] as Robert "Rusty" Ryan, Danny's friend and second-in-command
* [[Matt Damon]] as Linus Caldwell, a known pickpocket
* [[Bernie Mac]] as Frank Catton, an ex-[[croupier]]
* [[Elliott Gould]] as Reuben Tishkoff, a wealthy friend of Danny
* [[Casey Affleck]] as Virgil Malloy, an expert mechanic
* [[Scott Caan]] as Turk Malloy, an expert mechanic and the brother of Virgil
* [[Eddie Jemison]] as Livingston Dell, a surveillance expert
* [[Don Cheadle]] as Basher Tarr, an explosives expert
* [[Qin Shaobo]] as "The Amazing" Yen, an acrobat
* [[Carl Reiner]] as Saul Bloom, an elderly con man
* [[Julia Roberts]] as Tess Ocean, the wife of Danny
** Roberts also portrays herself in the film in a scene where Tess is impersonating Julia Roberts as part of the con and her character is talking on the phone with her real self.
}}


===Others===
[[Matt Damon]] also breaks the fourth wall, when in reference to Julia's career, he says to Bruce Willis "You know, that little [[Academy Award|Oscar]] statue on the mantle starts smirking at you after a while. You know what I mean?" to which Bruce Willis replies: "Not really, Glen, no." Matt Damon shared a Best Original Screenplay Oscar with [[Ben Affleck]] in 1997 for ''[[Good Will Hunting]]'', while Julia Roberts won a Best Actress Oscar for ''[[Erin Brockovich]]'' in 2000, another movie directed by Steven Soderbergh. Willis has yet to win an Oscar.

==Production==
Another running gag is despite the fact that Yen only speaks [[Mandarin]], most of the characters seem to be having little to no problems understanding him. Benedict even converses with Yen in Mandarin when confronting him.
The script was reworked when [[Julia Roberts]] learned she was pregnant with twins.<ref>{{cite web|title=OCEANS 12 - Production notes - Twelve Is The New Eleven|url=http://www.cinemareview.com/production.asp?prodid=2805|publisher=CinemaReview.com|access-date=December 1, 2013|archive-date=December 3, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131203020130/http://www.cinemareview.com/production.asp?prodid=2805|url-status=dead}}</ref>


The film was shot in 2004 in [[Atlantic City, New Jersey]]; in [[St. Petersburg, Florida]]; and in [[Las Vegas]] at the [[Bellagio (resort and casino)|Bellagio Hotel]]. Filming also took place in [[Chicago]], [[Amsterdam]], [[Paris]], [[Monte Carlo]], [[Lake Como]] (at Clooney's villa in [[Laglio]]), [[Rome]], and [[Castellammare del Golfo]] in [[Sicily]]. The production spent three weeks in the Netherlands; scenes were filmed in the [[KattenKabinet]], the [[Hotel Pulitzer]], the [[Haarlem railway station]], and [[The Hague City Hall]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.sceen-it.com/sceen/382/Ocean-s-Twelve/City-Hall|title = Ocean's Twelve at City Hall - filming location}}</ref> In Paris, scenes were shot at the [[Sorbonne (building)|Sorbonne]], the [[Embassy of Australia, Paris|Australian Embassy]], and the [[Gare du Nord]]. Afterwards, filming moved to Italy. The [[Monte Carlo Casino]] and the [[Villa Erba]] (on Lake Como) also served as filming locations.<ref>{{cite web|title=OCEANS 12 - Production notes - About the production|url=http://www.cinemareview.com/production.asp?prodid=2807|publisher=CinemaReview.com|access-date=December 1, 2013}}</ref>
Yet another running joke continued through both ''Ocean's Eleven'' and to this movie is that [[Brad Pitt]]'s character, Rusty, is eating some sort of food in nearly all of his non-stunt scenes.


== Reception ==
In each film so far, Oceans Eleven and this one, whenever Daniel Ocean winds up in prison he is wearing a formal dinner suit, leading to his release from prison where he must again wear the dinner suit.
On review aggregation website [[Rotten Tomatoes]], the film holds an approval rating of {{RT data|score}} based on {{RT data|count}} reviews, and an average rating of {{RT data|average}}. The website's critical consensus reads, "While some have found the latest star-studded heist flick to be a fun, glossy star vehicle, others declare it's lazy, self-satisfied and illogical."<ref>{{cite Rotten Tomatoes |id=oceans_twelve |title=Ocean's Twelve |type=movie |access-date={{RT data|access-date}}}}{{RT data|edit}}</ref> On [[Metacritic]], the film has a weighted average score of 58 out of 100, based on 39 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".<ref>{{cite Metacritic |id=oceans-twelve |title=Ocean's Twelve |type=movie |access-date=May 3, 2022}}</ref> Audiences polled by [[CinemaScore]] gave the film an average grade of "B−" on an A+ to F scale.<ref>{{cite web |last1=D'Alessandro |first1=Anthony |title='Ocean's 8' Steals Franchise Record With $41.5M Opening – Final Sunday Update |url=https://deadline.com/2018/06/oceans-8-sandra-bullock-box-office-hereditary-hotel-artemis-1202406200/ |website=[[Deadline Hollywood]] |access-date=May 3, 2022 |date=June 10, 2018}}</ref>


The film was criticized for its slow start, its complex plot and a final twist that negated much of the preceding action.

Like the first films use of a series of oddly named cons, this film mentions the "swinging priest", "crazy larry", "soft shoulder", "baker's dozen", and "hell in a handbasket", none of which are described except that "baker's dozen" requires a woman and "hell in a handbasket" requires a trained cat. They finally decide to use a "lookie-loo with a bundle of joy". In this con, they use Tess, who looks like Julia Roberts, to get close to the egg, then use her pregnancy, what is commonly called a bundle of joy, as an excuse to leave quickly.


In a positive review for the ''[[Chicago Sun-Times]]'', [[Roger Ebert]] gave the film three out of four stars and applauded its cleverness: "The movie takes inventory of its characters with the same droll wit it does everything else ... The movie is all about behavior, dialogue, star power and wiseass in-jokes. I really sort of liked it."<ref>{{cite news|last=Ebert|first=Roger|author-link=Roger Ebert|date=December 9, 2004|url=https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/oceans-twelve-2004|title=Ocean's Twelve|newspaper=[[Chicago Sun-Times]]|access-date=September 4, 2018}}</ref> Steven Soderbergh has stated that it is his favorite of the then-three ''Ocean's'' films.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/movies/news/a148048/steven-soderbergh-defends-oceans-twelve.html|title=Steven Soderbergh defends 'Ocean's Twelve'|author=Nissim, Mayer|date=16 November 2009|publisher=Digital Spy|access-date=10 June 2013}}</ref>

The original soundtrack to ''Ocean's Twelve'' was released by [[Warner Bros. Records]] on December 7, 2004. [[David Holmes (musician)|David Holmes]] returned to compose the music for the film and won a [[Broadcast Music Incorporated|BMI]] award.


Holmes' songs "Amsterdam" and "I Love Art...Really!" were released as singles and do not appear on the commercial soundtrack LP.<ref>{{cite web |title=Amsterdam/I Love Art...

==Reception==
In spite of extremely high [[box office]] expectations and a promising opening weekend, ''Ocean's Twelve'' was not a very big box office hit, at least not compared to ''Ocean's Eleven''. The movie grossed about $125 million in the [[United States]]. ''Ocean's Eleven'' made about $184 million in the same region, and $444,200,000 worldwide in its entire box office run. ''Ocean's Twelve'' grossed only $351,331,634 after its worldwide theatrical run.

==Additional notes==
*Matt Damon's character quotes the lyrics to the classic [[Led Zeppelin]] song "[[Kashmir (song)|Kashmir]]" in a scene with George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and Robbie Coltrane. The other three men say seemingly nonsensical phrases, and Matt Damon doesn't know what to say on his turn, so he quotes the song, saying, "Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dream, I am a traveler of both time and space, to be where I have been."
* The sequel was based on and produced spec script by [[George Nolfi]] called ''Honor Among Thieves'' that was originally intended to be directed by [[John Woo]].
* The music Benedict plays on the piano when he comes to visit Basher is called "Requiem for a Dead". It was written and performed by [[Andy Garcia]].
* The real [[Coronation (Fabergé egg)|Coronation Egg]] by [[Peter Carl Fabergé]] was made in 1897 and is kept in the [[Hermitage Museum]] in [[Saint Petersburg|St. Petersburg]], [[Russia]]. It was bought in [[1979]] for $2.2 million by the [[Forbes family (publishers)|Forbes Magazine Collection]] and was on display in [[New York]] &mdash; along with eight other eggs and 180 miscellaneous articles by Carl Faberge &mdash; for 25 years. On [[February 4]], [[2004]], [[Russia|Russian]] [[petroleum|oil]] tycoon [[Viktor Vekselberg]] bought the whole collection back for [[Russia]] for about $90 million. The 1897 egg was valued at between $18 and $24 million. The replica seen in the film was made by the jewelers Vivian Alexander and is worth over $4,000.
* When he meets Tess at the Rome hotel, [[Bruce Willis]] asks about Danny. [[Julia Robert]]'s husband's name is Danny Moder. Linus also refers to Tess as "J-Ro".

Ocean's Twelve is a 2004 American heist comedy film directed by Steven Soderbergh and written by George Nolfi. The second installment in the Ocean's film trilogy franchise and the sequel to Ocean's Eleven (2001), the film features an ensemble cast including George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Andy García, Don Cheadle, Bernie Mac, Julia Roberts, Casey Affleck, Scott Caan, Vincent Cassel, Eddie Jemison, Carl Reiner, and Elliott Gould.

Ocean's Twelve was released theatrically in the United States on December 10, 2004, by Warner Bros. Pictures. The film received mixed reviews from critics and grossed $362.9 million worldwide, becoming the tenth-highest-grossing film of 2004. It was followed by Ocean's Thirteen (2007), with Soderbergh and most of the cast again returning.

Plot

[edit]

Terry Benedict locates all eleven members of Danny Ocean's crew, demanding they return the $160 million they stole from his casinos plus $38 million in interest. He gives them a two-week deadline to return it or he will either get them all arrested or killed.

Short by half the amount, the group schemes to stage a heist in Amsterdam to avoid problems with U.S. authorities. Saul decides not to participate since he is too old for another grand heist. They are tipped off by an informant named Matsui about the location of the first stock certificate ever issued. After a complex series of schemes, they find the document has already been stolen by master thief the "Night Fox".

Europol detective Isabel Lahiri is called in to investigate the theft and realizes that she gave Rusty the idea of how to solve a complication of the heist with a description of a similar burglary during their earlier relationship. Surprising the group at their accommodation, she warns them they cannot beat the Night Fox or his mentor, the mysterious master thief "LeMarc",[2] both of whom excel in the "long con", and steals Rusty's phone. She has been hunting both for years.

Danny and his crew discover that the Night Fox is François Toulour, a wealthy French baron and gentleman thief with a villa on Lake Como. Danny goes to the villa and steals Toulour's paintings. Confronting Toulour, Ocean learns that Toulour exposed their identities to Benedict (breaking the code of silence among thieves) and hired Matsui to inform the crew about the stock certificate so as to meet with Danny. Toulour is outraged when LeMarc suggested Danny may be a better thief than him, so he challenges him to steal the Imperial Coronation Fabergé egg. If Danny and his crew win, he will pay off their debt to Benedict.

The crew begin to plan an elaborate heist to swap the egg for a holographic recreation, but Toulour gives the camera recordings from his villa to Lahiri, who deduces that they want to steal the egg through an intercepted phone call to Rusty. She then captures most of the crew except Linus, Tarr, Turk, and Saul.

Linus comes up with a second plan involving Danny's wife, Tess, posing as a pregnant Julia Roberts in order to get close to the egg and swap it. They are foiled by Lahiri and a coincidentally present Bruce Willis, and the rest of the group members are captured. Lahiri is told that they are to be extradited to the U.S., while Linus is chosen first to be interrogated by the FBI agent assigned to collect them. The agent is actually Linus's mother, who organizes the release of the whole gang. She points out to Lahiri that she will face consequences for forging a signature on a Europol form to obtain the necessary arrest warrants for Ocean's gang.

Sometime later, Danny and Tess return to Toulour's villa, where Toulour expresses glee at their failure. He explains that he stole the egg at night using his agility and dancing skills to evade the museum's heavy security. Toulour's celebration is short-lived when Danny reveals that his group stole the real egg while it was in transit to the museum, and Toulour realizes they were tipped off by LeMarc.

A flashback reveals that Danny and Rusty had met LeMarc earlier when he revealed his confidence trick intended to humiliate Toulour and, at the same time, restore to himself the Fabergé egg that he had stolen years ago but returned following his wife's wishes. Toulour is forced to admit that Danny won the bet and gives him the money for the debt to Benedict.

As the crew pay back Benedict and promise not to perform any more heists in his casinos, Toulour is seen in the background spying on them. Rusty takes Lahiri to a safe house that he claims has been lent to him by LeMarc. There, she is reunited with her father, who is revealed to be the man she has been pursuing for years: LeMarc.

Production

[edit]

The script was reworked when Julia Roberts learned she was pregnant with twins.[3]

The film was shot in 2004 in Atlantic City, New Jersey; in St. Petersburg, Florida; and in Las Vegas at the Bellagio Hotel. Filming also took place in Chicago, Amsterdam, Paris, Monte Carlo, Lake Como (at Clooney's villa in Laglio), Rome, and Castellammare del Golfo in Sicily. The production spent three weeks in the Netherlands; scenes were filmed in the KattenKabinet, the Hotel Pulitzer, the Haarlem railway station, and The Hague City Hall.[4] In Paris, scenes were shot at the Sorbonne, the Australian Embassy, and the Gare du Nord. Afterwards, filming moved to Italy. The Monte Carlo Casino and the Villa Erba (on Lake Como) also served as filming locations.[5]

Reception

[edit]

On review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 55% based on 185 reviews, and an average rating of 5.9/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "While some have found the latest star-studded heist flick to be a fun, glossy star vehicle, others declare it's lazy, self-satisfied and illogical."[6] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 58 out of 100, based on 39 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[7] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B−" on an A+ to F scale.[8]

The film was criticized for its slow start, its complex plot and a final twist that negated much of the preceding action. The Washington Post's Stephen Hunter said that "it all ends on one of those infuriatingly sloppy notes where, having dramatized narrative events WXYZ for us, which we have taken on good faith, it suddenly and arbitrarily delivers narrative events STUV, which completely invalidate events WXYZ."[9] Newsweek said that "while it looks like the cast is having a blast and a half, the studied hipness can get so pleased with itself it borders on the smug."[10] Claudia Puig with USA Today remarked, "At the rate things are going, all of Hollywood will put in about a day's work on Ocean's Seventeen."[11] Ocean's Twelve was rated by Entertainment Weekly as one of "The 25 Worst Sequels Ever Made".[12]

In a positive review for the Chicago Sun-Times, Roger Ebert gave the film three out of four stars and applauded its cleverness: "The movie takes inventory of its characters with the same droll wit it does everything else ... The movie is all about behavior, dialogue, star power and wiseass in-jokes. I really sort of liked it."[13] Steven Soderbergh has stated that it is his favorite of the then-three Ocean's films.[14]

The original soundtrack to Ocean's Twelve was released by Warner Bros. Records on December 7, 2004. David Holmes returned to compose the music for the film and won a BMI award.

Holmes' songs "Amsterdam" and "I Love Art...Really!" were released as singles and do not appear on the commercial soundtrack LP.[15] "The Real Story" is different in the film, which uses "Rito a Los Angeles" by Peppino de Luca, featuring part of the main riff of "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida". The album also lacks "Thé à la Menthe" performed by La Caution, used during the Night Fox "laser-dance" sequence, "Margaret" by Giuseppe De Luca, which plays as the group are escorted from the police station, and "El Capitalismo Foraneo" by Gotan Project, which plays as Lahiri cracks Matsui.

"Ascension to Virginity" was taken from the soundtrack of the 1968 movie Candy, where it likewise appeared in the epilogue.
