A rag-tag group of con artists and ex-cons team up for the heist to end all heists in this high-profile remake of the 1960 Rat Pack favorite. As with its predecessor, Ocean's Eleven opens with its titular hero Danny Ocean (George Clooney stepping into the Frank Sinatra role) eager for a new challenge. The similarities to the original end there, as Ocean conspires with his old pal Rusty Ryan (Brad Pitt) to rob 150 million dollars from an underground vault that serves three of Las Vegas' biggest

A lark for everybody concerned, including the audience.
It can, at times, be forgettable in a fun way, especially when its funniest performers are caught in Soderbergh's spinning crosshairs.
Fun-loving, carefully crafted romp.
Forget Oscar, Ocean's Eleven is the coolest damned thing around.
[A] triumph of style and story...
Despite dashes of droll dialogue from screenwriter Ted Griffin, the remake aims for cool but instead gets chilly.
Soderbergh's most commercial film to date is a star-driven, semi-successful, slightly better remake of the 1960 origianl feature.
Fun heist movie for older kids and their families.
A perfect example of smart, fun mainstream entertainment. David Holmes' mod-jazz score pulses with pep, and even with the star power, Steven Soderbergh makes room for winning supporting turns from Eddie Jemison, Shaobo Qin and Carl Reiner.
I expected a pretty big turkey and ended up getting an entertaining witty, funny, and well acted piece of comedy heist.
...the new film emphasizes plot and character over sheer star power. (HD DVD Edition)
Whatever you do, don't pay attention.
Soderbergh and Griffin concoct a doozy of a robbery, seemingly impossible with a new hitch around every corner. The cast, headed by Clooney, never loses its cool and never gives away a surprise beforehand.
This wholly enjoyable entertainment sees Soderbergh setting himself a new challenge - the hi-tech robbery procedural - and relishing the clichés even as he freshens them with a dab of polish, wit, pace and a light touch of irony.
A fast paced, enjoyable flick, stylishly filmed, filled with great, or at least well-known actors, that doesn't disappoint, but doesn't make a lasting impression either.
We're not talking about reinventing the genre here. This is just a Big Mac and fries of a movie, and those movies, like the food, can hit the spot sometimes, especially when you're hung over.
L'humour est raffiné et subtil, le scénario est bien construit et rempli d'invraisemblances que l'on ne prend jamais au sérieux.
I'm left feeling like I went to the All-Star Game and only got to see them shoot free-throws.
A crowd pleaser of enormous star magnitude.
When all the cards have been turned over, nothing seems to be at stake in this movie...Has the feel of a put-on. It put me off.
Aside from the title character, there are no backstories and relatively few private moments or one-on-one interaction
Soderbergh continues the roll that he's been on ...
It's more of a novelty item than a film, really, and most of the fun comes from seeing just about all of Hollywood's most well-known faces show up in the span of two hours.
An instant classic of the heist genre with a very classy and sophisticated ensemble cast. Also, the comedy doesn't take charge of the very thought out plot, not distracting you from the thrils of the caper. That said, Ocean's Eleven is near perfect popcorn entertainment that's witty, clever, stands out from the rest of

Its Sodenburgh gone mainstream so this based on your preference, this could be good or bad. Personally I find this a great film to watch on a friday night with some friends. Theres a review that says this film is a polished turd...I agree with him. But its a polished turd by sodenburgh so you'll now its watchable.
