I don't usually plug movies, but this time I can't resist: Ocean's Twelve has the coolest laser scene ever.

The song played during that scene - The a la Menthe by Nikkfurie from French hip-hop group La Caution - has hit peer-to-peer file-sharing services as one of the most sought after files on the internet.

Not that I'm advocating illegal downloads. Nor am I going to talk about how that particular song was conspicuously absent from the official soundtrack.

Nor will I whine about the unbearable corniness of a scene involving Julia Roberts.

Instead, I'm going to unravel the clever twists and turns of Ocean's Twelve.

What is this movie? An elaborate con within a con? A fun-filled crime caper reminiscent of the 60s? A star-studded flick?

From a more objective point of view, the movie is simply a sequel. It's also Ocean's Eleven plus the gorgeous Catherine Zeta-Jones.
