Any movie critic can tell you what a newly released DVD is about & spoil the ending for you. I plan to ruin your entire DVD watching experience by highlighting it's flaws, it's missteps, it's examples of poor editing, casting, and point out the ridiculous holes in the plot. If you're cynical, you'll appreciate this valuable service I'm providing. If you're easily impressed, then don't say I didn't warn you.  - Mean Jean

Ocean's Twelve

Finally, a movie for the true aficionado, the discerning critic who delights in spotting & wallowing in incredibly complicated plots, unbelievably unbelievable couplings, totally stupid, far fetched, predictable & ridiculous plot �twists� that surprise only children, maybe, if they�re dull witted enough.

Yes, this movie is truly a marvel of every bad aspect of film making for the last 200 years. It also breaks new ground, not only for the ferocity with which it sucks, but for the zany, wacky, back tracking at critical moments, as though the director did everything in his massive power to direct a movie for the irretrievably stupid. Wonder what some on screen character means by their obscure reference to his movie character�s past? Wonder no more! Flash! Right before your eyes is the scene that will bring you up to speed! No sense starting the movie at the beginning, and making your way through it to the end, obviously since this is a movie made by the stupid for the stupid, there has to be many concessions & allowances for the diminished intellects the writers or producers or whoever wanted to attract. After then weighting this movie down heavily to compensate for the moronic audience being sought & pandered to, the writers promptly forget who the target audience is & and weave the most complex ending in the history of movie making. No, not the obvious �surprise� ending, that a rabid tortoise with his tail caught in a bear trap while his kids fight over who gets the last bit of ice cream could predict while he did his taxes & juggled live porcupines, but all the junk about the double heists....  forget it, directions on how to build a perpetual motion machine would not only be easier, it�d be far more lucrative for us all.

Mean Jean sez, wait 6 months, get 4 or 5 of your friends together, everybody kick in a quarter & rent this then. Ocean�s 13 is supposedly in the works, though for then life of me I can�t understand why. For the first time, I just don�t care about this formerly amusing crew.  After this cinematic theft of my time, I hope 13 is about how their characters all get busted & gang raped in the big house.
