Reviews for Ocean's Eleven
Top CriticIt can, at times, be forgettable in a fun way, especially when its funniest performers are caught in Soderbergh's spinning crosshairs.
01/22/02
Top CriticFun-loving, carefully crafted romp.

Top CriticForget Oscar, Ocean's Eleven is the coolest damned thing around.

Top Critic[A] triumph of style and story...
12/10/01
Top CriticDespite dashes of droll dialogue from screenwriter Ted Griffin, the remake aims for cool but instead gets chilly.
12/07/01
Top CriticBuzzes along at a mildly entertaining pitch from start to finish.
12/07/01
Top CriticSoderbergh's crisp, funny heist flick makes out like a bandit. George Clooney and Elliott Gould steal the show.
12/07/01
Top CriticDespite 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.
12/07/01
Top CriticPure Hollywood moonshine.
12/07/01
Top CriticThe new Ocean's Eleven is altogether different -- it isn't content to let star power, shtick and easy camaraderie carry the day; it works for your money.
12/07/01
Top CriticTo be sure, Soderbergh has proved his entertaining point, and done the Rat Pack one better, converting a paltry failure into a paltry success. But just how cool is that?
12/07/01
Top CriticVigorous, involving entertainment.
12/07/01
Top CriticAdmittedly, little of Ocean's Eleven is likely to hang around in your head past closing time. But that only gives you a good excuse to see it again.
12/07/01
Top CriticI think it's time for Soderbergh to be leaving Las Vegas.
12/07/01
Top CriticIt didn't shake me up and I wasn't much involved, but I liked it as a five-finger exercise.
12/07/01
Top CriticTop-of-the-line studio eye candy.
12/07/01
Top CriticA brand-new ride, complete with humor, action, explosives, good-looking men in tuxedos and high-tech toys.
12/07/01
Top CriticHappily Soderbergh's updated Ocean's Eleven, reconceived by screenwriter Ted Griffin, has only three things in common with its source: a Vegas location, a casino-heist plot, and a crew of cool cuties.
12/07/01
Top CriticFor those not so taken by the star power, this new Ocean's Eleven is the equivalent of a domineering team you can't stand that enters the Super Bowl. Even if you don't like the players, the odds are so good that it's tough to bet against them.
