Part of the failure of this movie is that we learned from the forst that not all is as it seems. Like the classic Mission: Impossible television show, even the supposed mistakes and captures are all part of the plan, and so here to we are now prepared to see them get out of all scrapes.
The action was more disjointed, and my wife and I felt the need to go back and remind ourselves who some of the characters were. It didn't help that not every character is listed in the credits at the end. I'm not sure why they did that, but it was damned frustrating!
If you loved Ocean's Eleven, you may enjoy this, otherwise, it's probably a waste of time.
