Reviews for Ocean's Eleven
It's got a to-die-for cast, a great caper, smart dialogue, lots of laughs and a slick production design.
12/08/01
A hip, joyfully contemporary retelling of its vintage predecessor, but someone of director Steven Soderbergh's caliber deserves slightly better than this material.
12/07/01
A simple plan with a straightforward execution.
12/07/01
A triumph of style over substance, swagger over common sense, and it's almost impossible not to get jazzed by the sheer audacity of the plotters and their plot.
12/07/01
Good acting and clever dialogue do not ultimately prevail over the formula plot and all of the cliches and stereotypes.
12/07/01
A great looking film.
12/07/01
A fun, intelligent caper film.
12/07/01
It's the kind of movie you really like, but not as much as you want to.
12/07/01
Sin City never looked so beautiful.
12/07/01
The heist comes off clean, and the twist is satisfying.
12/07/01
The hippest and coolest thing about Ocean's Eleven, both old and new, is that it brings together such high-wattage personalities, and it's fun to see so many of them on screen at the same time.
12/07/01
Despite dashes of droll dialogue from screenwriter Ted Griffin, the remake aims for cool but instead gets chilly.
12/07/01
For all its gloss and marquee power, the new flick feels calculated. The original Ocean's Eleven was cool. The new one is cold.
12/07/01
Buzzes along at a mildly entertaining pitch from start to finish.
12/07/01
All glitz and glibness, the film makes 1960's ego party, which had the mock substance of happy-hour celebrity, seem rather deep.
12/07/01
Soderbergh's crisp, funny heist flick makes out like a bandit. George Clooney and Elliott Gould steal the show.
12/07/01
The perfect movie for New Year's Eve.
12/07/01
At its best when it forgets about personalities and focuses on the mechanics of high-tech plunder.
12/07/01
Despite a lot of snappy dialogue supplied by screenwriter Ted Griffin, Ocean's Eleven bogs down in technological minutiae, pointless set pieces that aren't very funny and by indulging the urge to constantly sell itself.
