Ocean’s Twelve

The incredible success of Ocean's Eleven naturally landed itself a sequel – Ocean's Twelve.  The incredibly cool crew returns with Pitt and Clooney reprising their roles. Danny Ocean gathers up his complete gang of con artists and thieves from the first film in New York City before they all jet off to Amsterdam, Rome, and Paris to pull off three separate heists.
