In These Times

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.

Film Frenzy

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.

Rated: 2.5/4

Jace E I have never met a single person who didn't enjoy Ocean's Eleven. The movie is fast paced, clever and fun from start to finish. The cast is incredible, with enough charm to fill the Bellagio vault. There is a sleekness to this movie that I wish was more prevalent in modern crime films. There are some clunky moments and Julia Roberts' Tess is very one-dimensional, but those complaints are minor. That being said, I absolutely hate when Tess says "You'll never win me back." It's just poor dialogue. What Ocean's Eleven does well is give us the pieces to put the heist together, but leave us in the dark just slightly. The film is endlessly rewatchable and one of the best crime/heist movies of all time. Best Character: RustyBest Quote: - Rusty: Been practicing that speech, haven't you?- Danny: Little bit. Did I rush it? Felt like I rushed it.- Rusty: No, it was good, I liked it. "Teen Beat" thing was harsh.Best Scene: At the FountainBest Piece of Score: "Clair de Lune" Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/16/24 Full Review Mason M Ocean's Eleven is a good film, but not all too entertaining and a bit hard to follow. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/14/24 Full Review Faiz D One of the coolest crime/thrillers ever made. Excellent story and brilliant performances. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/29/24 Full Review Margaret C Watched this while playing blackjack in the middle of a thunderstorm. I have no idea what happened Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/26/24 Full Review Cohen V Oceans 13 is better. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/22/24 Full Review Sara G Watching this in 2024 for the first time. After seeing movies like Now You See Me I am finding this movie very slow passed. I love all of the actors in this movie but even for a 2001 movie I was expecting more. I don’t know that I would watch this again. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/10/24 Full Review Read all reviews
