There's really only one reason to watch this movie: Vincent Cassel's dance through the lasers. Other than that little highlight, this is a formulaic sequel that did nothing to capture the fun of the first one.The original Eleven from the first movie have been found by Terry Benedict (Andy Garcia) and now only have two weeks to come up with the money they stole from him, with interest, or he'll kill them. Adding to their dilemma is a French thief calling himself the Night Fox (Cassel) who promises to ruin all their scores unless they settle a debt of honor as to who is the better thief. Also, Rusty's (Brad Pitt) past comes back to haunt him as the beautiful Europol agent Isabel (Catherine Zeta-Jones) starts closing in on the team while they try to steal a Faberge egg.
One more little note: Robbie Coltrane who cameos as Matsui and an uncredited Albert Finney who plays Lamark also both played famous British detectives, as Cracker and Hercule Poirot respectively.
