Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend. This is about as good as the original without the historical mark. I love the alternative motive of getting revenge for a friend, this way it's not about how much you can steal, its about how much you can make someone else lose, and it's against someone might be justifiably shot, not that it would help Reuben. This movie gets every bit as complex with less over explaining than the last movie, keeping it fresh and interesting. All the same production value, good cast, and good writing with new twists and angles. A must see even if you've watched the first and are skipping the second.

73/100 After Reuben has a heart attack, because his partner, Willy Bank, reneged on a deal, the Ocean's team decides to tear down Mr. Bank's new casino. This was lots of fun and my favorite of the Ocean films. There's so many tiny pieces and moving parts that my wife and I were completely befuddled most of the time but watching them all come together in the final act was magic. The characters, the acting, the writing, the direction.. everything worked to present a highly entertaining caper of epic proportions. Al Pacino was perfect as the villian, as well.
