I'm probably the only one more excited about this movie than Ocean's Twelve. There's just something about this movie that makes me want to see it. As of right now (without actually watching the movie), I'm gonna rate it 4/5 simply based on interested I am in the movie.

I wanna see it too! o.o And I'm not even entirely sure what it's about. :lol:

Did anyone watch this movie? I'm wodering how it was, as it is coming out on DVD soon.

I liked it. However, I do think fans of the books would probably enjoy it more than a regular filmgoer because a lot of things might seem really obscure and weird..
The film departs from the books on certain things but there are plenty of recognizable things/scenes, etc. Jim Carrey is great in an insane way...Violet is pretty good, Sunny is cute/funny but I didn't really like Klaus. Wasn't quite as brainy as the book version :cool:

yeah hopefully he'll stick with doing caricatures which got him where he is, instead of more real-life roles.

I liked this one. Sunny was so cute :)
