Generic heist movies with high-caliber casts are trendy this year (see The Score and Heist). And for sheer extravagance and superfluousness, Ocean’s Eleven tops them all.

Reviews for Ocean's Eleven
Ocean’s Eleven seems as if it coasting by on reputation alone.

Suffice to say, Ocean's 11 is a safe bet on which you can place your chips on.

Fun, exciting, smart, and not too self-absorbed.

Takes a piece of '60s pop culture and effectively turns it into a piece of '00s pop culture.

Ocean's 11 was a sea of good times. (Okay I know that was corny...)

What does it matter if Soderbergh's a far better craftsman than Tony Scott and his ilk when he's lost his soul?
02/04/02
It can, at times, be forgettable in a fun way, especially when its funniest performers are caught in Soderbergh's spinning crosshairs.

Entretenimiento, simple, puro y duro...

The heist itself is sufficiently daunting that it’ll keep you watching long past the time when you’ve ceased to give a damn about the participants.

[Soderbergh] cleverly hews to the requirements of a thriller style and puts out a taut entertainment that doesn't disappoint.
01/07/02
Fun-loving, carefully crafted romp.
01/06/02
With the stylish Soderbergh in the driver’s seat, this is a smart, elaborate heist film with a Rat Pack pedigree, some laughs and surprises along the way.
01/05/02
One expertly made piece of pure, unpretentious popcorn entertainment.
01/03/02
It’s merely OK, but it is completely watchable, and equally forgettable.
12/18/01
Forget Oscar, Ocean's Eleven is the coolest damned thing around.
12/18/01
This one is proof that "big" movies can also be stylish and sophisticated while still being immensely entertaining.
12/16/01
As Frank, Dean, Sammy, Peter and Joey might have said, "Ocean's 11 ... it's a gas, man!"
