Critics Consensus

As fast-paced, witty, and entertaining as it is star-studded and coolly stylish, Ocean's Eleven offers a well-seasoned serving of popcorn entertainment.

In These Times

As we live and breathe, Steven Soderbergh is making the best kid-stuff for adults since Howard Hawks put Cary Grant in a sombrero. It's no small achievement.

Film Frenzy

Ocean’s Eleven maintains the appropriate swagger and air of cool collectedness, but it’s hard to be impressed with its suavity as it bungles its own caper trail.

Rated: 2.5/4

The biggest heist may be the two hours this movie stole from my life. Not nearly as cool, hip, or funny as it seems to think it is. Also, there is just something about George Clooney where I don't find him believable in almost any part he plays. It's like it's George Clooney consciously playing a role/character, rather than George Clooney being a role/character.

***SPOILERS*** Ocean's Eleven is a fun, exciting heist film with the signature style of the early 2000s. The characters are quite well-written, but for the most part they're just fun to watch. The story is in focus and it's the best aspect of the writing. The twists are surprising and all of them completely worked for me. The dialogues are fun, but at the same time, unnatural. There's a lot of fun to be had with this film. The great directing creates a fun tone, but with the use of music and sound, there are a lot of tense and nerve-wracking scenes. The cinematography uses quick camera moves and zooms, which create the style of the early 2000s. The lighting is good, while the editing is extremely creative, which I'm not used to seeing these days. The production design is good, the soundtrack is fun and as I previously said, it also helps in creating the tone of the film. The casting is perfect and the acting performances are good. The charisma of these actors is insane. Ocean's Eleven is fun, stylish and it has an insane cast.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

It's a compulsively re-watchable, funny, exciting, and altogether fun movie, one of the best of director Steven Soderbergh's career.
