Joshua Rothkopf In These Times Mar 16, 2020
As we live and breathe, Steven Soderbergh is making the best kid-stuff for adults since Howard Hawks put Cary Grant in a sombrero. It's no small achievement. Go to Full Review

5/5
Soderbergh plots and pulls off the gold standard for the modern heist movie, and does it via a film that doesn't have a mean-spirited bone in its body. Go to Full Review

2.5/4
Ocean’s Eleven maintains the appropriate swagger and air of cool collectedness, but it’s hard to be impressed with its suavity as it bungles its own caper trail. Go to Full Review

Abraham W Mar 28, 2019 OCEANS ELEVEN REVIEW BY DAVID DOMINI The first Oceanâ(TM)s Eleven movie came out in 2001. Since then there have been three more Oceans movies including: Oceans Twelve, Oceans Thirteen, Oceans 8 but I think the original movie is the best. Firstly, because Oceanâ(TM)s Eleven has good actors. Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Matt Damon Julia Roberts and Don Cheadle are very good in the film. Career criminals Danny Ocean (Clooney) and Rusty Ryan (Brad Pitt) get together to plan a heist at three casinos owned by Terry Benedict (Andy Garcia). They put together a team of eleven people and hope to steal $150 million. âSo, Danny starts to hire professionals from all over the country: There's the card magician Rusty Ryan, the perfect pickpocket Linus Caldwell and the ingenious pyrotechnician Basher Tarr. Reuben Tishkoff, who lost a casino to Benedict, provides funding, the brothers Virgil and Turk Malloy will drive and help, and Frank Catton, a professional card dealer, gets a job at the casino to watch the routines. Saul Bloom, already retired, will play the rich heavy weaponry dealer and live in the hotel, while Livingston Dell bugs the place to have a look over the shoulders of the security personnel. Finally, the chinese acrobat artist Yen will be the one to move inside the safe before the motion detectors are turned off. There are three rules to be followedâ? What could possibly go wrong???? Matt Damon was very good as Linus Caldwell (why) See more
Hagrid W Mar 20, 2019 this was great, thoroughly entertaining. great characters and great fun
Ron G Feb 25, 2019 Steven Soderberg is not just a great filmmaker he also happens to be one of my favorite cinematographer. Every film he has made, without fail, has some of the best lighting and look. Ocean's 11 is one of the best examples of fantastic subtle lighting used to create an atmosphere. This is a remake of an older film featuring a bunch of stud criminals who decide to swindle a Las Vegas casino. Ocean's 11 is fun and light hearted. There are moments of suspension of disbelief, but one must ignore them to truly enjoy the film. All the actors from Pitt, Clooney and Damon to Elliot Gould and Bernie Mac seem to be having a great time both on and off the screen. This is a fun, breezy movie that needs to be enjoyed for what it is. (Great lighting, better camaraderie make Ocean's 11 a good watch). See more
Abraham S Feb 12, 2019 It's definitely a good movie.
Harry M Dec 30, 2018 Good film for cheering on the criminals and is well worth the watch. Sets the standard for the "explain what happens after" genre. See more
Anakin S Dec 29, 2018 great movie, but it is a one-time watch.
