Con man Danny Ocean (George Clooney) has just been released from a four-year jail term and decides that his first order of business is robbing three Las Vegas casinos owned by the slimy Terry Benedict (Andy Garcia). To pull off this nearly impossible task, he quickly assembles an eclectic crew--including a card shark (Brad Pitt), a pickpocket (Matt Damon), an explosives expert (Don Cheadle), and an aging gambler (Carl Reiner)--and seeks financial backing from a freewheeling casino mogul (Elliott Gould) who holds a grudge against Benedict. However, it soon becomes apparent that Ocean has more at stake than money and his newly found freedom--his ex-wife, Tess (Julia Roberts), just happens to be Benedict's new girlfriend. Can Ocean steal back Tess's heart and more than a hundred million dollars at the same time? Continuing an impressive streak of films that began with OUT OF SIGHT and THE LIMEY and exploded into even wider acclaim and popularity with ERIN BROCKOVICH and TRAFFIC, Steven Soderbergh helms this star-studded caper flick with a strong sense of style and humor. Clooney and Pitt, in particular, have a great rapport and both exude a suave, laid-back charm. Damon, Cheadle, Gould, and Reiner all provide excellent comic turns, while Garcia gives an appropriately sinister performance. The whole glittery package is topped off by David Holmes' engaging score, which ties together the sounds and moods of Hollywood past and present. [More]

Ocean's Eleven" is a very thin, but very slick caper movie. There is no substance to it, but it is a lot of fun to watch.

Fun but forgettable, Ocean's Eleven stays north of average by virtue of a charismatic cast, and its straightforward goal to keep things light.

There's a decent heist movie hidden under all that smarm but you have to dig pretty deep to unearth it.

Think of Ocean’s Eleven as one of those $7.99 all-you-can-eat buffet dinners featured at Vegas casino-hotels. You get a lot for the money, but the next day you’ll be hungry for something more substantial.

The only time Soderbergh attempts anything borderline Hitchcockian, he literally runs out of battery power

No one can fault Soderbergh for restoring a little dignity to the Hollywood event film. Ideally, every big budget extravaganza should be this good.

You focus on the boys, because they really seem like they love themselves and one another.

The banter is droll and dry, the action is brisk, everybody looks great, and everybody gets to do a bit.

It's a kick, it's a gas, and it gives the Rat Pack itself a run for its money.
