Plot : Just out of prison Danny Ocean (George Clooney) assembles a team of 11 to rob a highly secured casino vault. -------- Story : Fast paced story telling with quickly developed characters makes for a fun - but not incredible story. Danny's team slowly goes through the casino making their escape and entrance breach by breach - over the course of a couple days I assume : which is for the most part really fun to watch and as the big day of the heist gets closer - your prone to expect a couple twists. None of the characters have any motives in this movie aside from getting the money : with the exception of Danny , who is trying to get his wife back from the man running the casino. You never have to dig deep into this film's characters though the story goes so fast - but it defintly wouldn't have been a challenge for the films huge star cast. -------- Music : The majority of the film is played out with great beats and melodies - which always fit right in place with the rest of the picture. Along with a very different classical score at the end which is incredibly effective. -------- Visuals : Though the images are never lacking here , they just don't touch that eye candy quality. The settings are mostly small , with tons of focus on the characters - but they get the job done for what they're used for. -------- Synopsis : Some small character fast paced fun - backed up by a great soundtrack and cast. --------

I was really suprise how good this movie was. Not only it had a great cast, but it had an excellent storyline of how these guys plan to walk away without being caught while robbing one of Vegas cosino. It's really a good movie. I give it 4 1/2 stars.

A superbly done and masterful remake of the original (which I hadn't been born yet to see) but I have to say it does entertain in its fun, cocky and funny style. An impossible heist made possible with the collaboration of eleven master thieves, an ex-wife to win back, and about 160 million dollars to be stolen...if that doesn't sound good, then I don't know what will.

Ocean's 11 is about 11 guys who plan to rob 3 very well guarded casinos, lead by Danny Ocean each member contributes to the cause, and if they succeed they will make out with a lot of money, a lot. Ocean's 11 has an all-star cast, with George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Andy Garcia, Mat Damon, and Julia Roberts to name a few.

The story is very well done, they made it believable that these casinos can be robbed and they aren't easy.

One aspect of the movie I enjoyed was the subtle bits of comedy from Brad Pitt's character always eating, to Danny pick pocketing; Matt Damon's character after he pick-pocked Danny.

I didn't think I would like this movie at first but I'm glad I gave it a chance.

A great movie, it's just what a crime, action/adventure movie should have. It has a great plot and the movie is constructed in a very entertaining way. The things they do make you believe that the robbery could be done and that those "thieves" are the best in the world and have great minds. The comedy in the movie is also great, it is a great spice for it. Watch the movie, you will love it.

This is a great movie and I only found out after I watched it that it's a remake. It literally has an all star cast with the best of the best which really helps. Some bits are a little bit boring but overall its an excellent, enjoyable movie.

Flashy. Funky. Fascinating. Fascilitating.

Ocean's 11 is a triple A movie. Bringing to you everything you want in a movie, without complicating things too much. Besides. Las Vegas. I mean, come on. You've got to love the settings. Las Vegas, the city of everything I love about America. It has the ability to provide a good setting for any movie, and Ocean's 11, being set in a casino, was naturally going to kick ass.


Las Vegas could've made this movie amazing even without the superb cast. Numbering God knows how many actors, Ocean's 11 provided a wide scala of various types of acting, all brought together in a delicious cake. With a cherry on top!
