What to Know

Critics Consensus

Easygoing but lazy, Ocean's Eleven blithely coasts on the well-established rapport of the Rat Pack royalty.

Archer Winsten New York Post 09/22/2018
The picture is very plush... so much a display of performers who act as if a mere appearance would induce hysteria in the adoring public, that you wonder who's fooling whom. Go to Full Review Kevin Maher The Times (UK) 05/04/2018
4/5
The intrigue is in the details that initially passed you by. The men, for instance, are all army veterans. They address each other by rank and their booze-fuelled camaraderie seems to be an expression of their status. Go to Full Review Colin Kennedy Empire Magazine 06/10/2009
3/5
There are many incidental pleasures to be had. Go to Full Review Tony Sloman Radio Times 03/04/2025
4/5
It's directed in glossy Panavision by veteran Lewis Milestone, who keeps a tight lid on the Rat Pack's antics. The ending, if rather derivative, is still utterly brilliant. Go to Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy 05/05/2024
2/4
A barely functional heist tale that served mainly as an opportunity for Frank and friends to party at Warner Bros.’s expense. Go to Full Review Allan Morrison Jet Magazine 01/16/2024
Some of it is funny, but the whole piece never knits together into a believable whole because it is based on a terribly contrived screenplay and because Dir. Milestone obviously couldn’t decide whether to play it straight or satirical. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Loren H Jun 25 One of my faves. Love Soderbergh. Love this upbeat remake. A perfect film IMO See more Corey Jun 25 I love this movie! I was so happy to see it in theaters, I have them all on DVD at home. Really something magical. If I could change one thing it would be playing the original previews from 2007 but I know that's a big ask. See more Mushfiqur R Jun 25 they really don't make'm like they used to See more Michael Jun 25 So happy to see this on a big screen again. Such a fun time at the movies.
