Summary: FUNNY and SATISFYING
Review: "OCEAN'S ELEVEN" is smart, funny, and satisfying. It's storyline is complex and fastpaced. The movie's casting was excellent too. but something bothered me. I haven't seen the original, but it seemed that some material in the movie was something that has been completely overused, and it made the moment seem awkward. But that's just my opinion.
Anyways, I only saw it in the theater, but the special features on the DVD look kind of interesting. I might want to rent it someday. But if you go off and buy "OCEAN'S ELEVEN" I am sure it is worth it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: So when is Oceans Eleven 2 Coming out?
Review: Pros:
The new version of the hit "rat pack" movie OCEANS ELEVEN kicks [rear]! This movie is awesome, the plot is a little out rageous, but they pull it off, and its not what your expecting. It just keeps you on the edge till the last 5 min of the movie..awesome ending!

But your like oh my goodnes! when are they coming out with a new one?!?!? Although it finishes this story..your like..what are they gonna do now? The movie finishes in the way that you know there is gonna be a sequel, and i believe its box office success secures that.

Pitt and Clooney (dont take this the wrong way) work so well together on screen, its like you want them together all the time, cause they're hilarious..almost like geere and roberts..just not in that way! I actually saw this movie for Damon, and i honestly thought he would steal the movie, but no, brad did..when he dressed up like a doctor is when i lost it.

Cons
One of the things (not a major deal) is that characters (ecspecially pitt) would just disapear from the movie for a while, and trust me, pitt could've been in this movie more!

This movie is awesome, and THE MOVIE get's 5 stars, and if i was reviewing the movie, that's what i'd give it..but im sorry the dvd [stinks]! Don't get me wrong, i bought it! But, it just would've been better if well...a little more money was put in it!

For one thing, there are two different versions (more dvd's are doing this now), instead of making it a double disk with both wide and full screen, there is the widescreen dvd, and the fullscreen dvd..so if for some reason you like fullscreen...(you do get a better picture experience from widescreen!) and then you want a widescreen..you'll just have to get 2!

There is a ton of features, but just not a lot of glitz, i know its only the movie that counts.but it gives u kinda the feel you get when you purchase one of those 7.00 dvd's from [a local store]..not to much..no flashy intros really..cool game though.

The packaging is also very poor, going back to the original cardboard and plastic case, instead of full plastic...you know what this means....SPECIAL EDITION! Look at Men In Black there wer like 3 versions...and all of them just got glitzier and glitzier....so theres hope for that..

Well there's my review...buy the movie, its awesome, you wont be disapointed!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Multifaceted Ocean's 11
Review: Excellent movie. In my opinion it is much better than the original, but then again this one does have Holly Marie Combs in it! Definately worth adding to your collection of DVD's. Action packed with a good story line. It's got something for everyone!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: In defense of...
Review: Okay, I won't repeat all the good things that everyone has said about this movie because that would be completely redundant. There are well over 100 reviews. But I do think that people have unjustly given this movie one or two stars.

The first complaint I have read concerned the dialogue. For one thing, Ocean's Eleven was written in such a fashion so as to mirror older films from Hollywood's golden era. This was the style in which their scripts were written. Watch an old movie and you'll see that this is how they talked. The dialogue is very smooth and witty. You'll hear a lot of zingers being delivered. Just because people don't get some of the jokes doesn't mean that the script was stupid. It just means that the viewer has a different taste and/or needs to catch up on his or her movie history. There, I said it. Watch an old movie now or you have no right to even be reviewing this one.

Second, the plot is all a matter of taste. Some thought it was slow. They were planning a major heist for millions of dollars in a seemingly unpenetrable vault...of course the characters are going to take the time to plan out the whole thing right! They're not idiots! And I personally thought that it was interesting to see the ingenuity that went into the theft. I'm genuinely sorry that some people have such short attention spans that they can't get out of "give me lots of action" mode. If people want lots of explosions in casinos then they can rent 3000 Miles To Graceland. Of course, some people just don't like this movie because it's really not their cup of tea, which is fine. But just because someone doesn't like a movie doesn't make it bad. I hate Casper but I recognize that it really wasn't a bad movie.

People complained about the wierd style the movie was filmed in. Again, watch an old movie. The people who made this film obviously decided to add influence from the era from which the original story was generated. The result is a film that is modern in terms of technology and pop culture but classy and clever like older films.

And finally, I've heard many unfavorable comparisons with the original Ocean's Eleven. That is strictly a matter of taste. But also, I think that some people need to remember that just because it came first doesn't mean it was better. In fact, it isn't even considered a classic except among Rat Pack fans. It was ill-received in its day and isn't recognized as a good film even today. The only reason to watch it would be to see the Rat Pack because they have that enduring coolness factor.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Entertaining, but in the usual obvious modern style
Review: Ocean's Eleven is one of the better movies released recently, but it is not to be compared with the original. It lacks the style and the subtlety that makes the original and many of the movies of that era magic....three stars (the original gets 5)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: what fun....
Review: This movie coms from the director of ' the limey'...i think. anyways. this movie was FUN.

tons of fun shots and good cast. Bernie Mac and the lil chinese dude took me by surprise but they knew their roles. they did not 'overact', which i think what most minor actors do a lot in movies....

Daniel Ocean( George Clooney), fresh out of jail decides to rob 3 most richest casinos in LasVegas owned by Andy Garcia, who stole his wife away from him. Him and his 'eleven's, with their well thought out plan, starts to work, to get their 11somethin million each....

very very VERY fun, kind of gave me a feelin of watchin SNATCH by Guy Ritchie. perfect pace, lots of laughs, awes, and yeses.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Not as exciting as I thought !
Review: I rented the movie and I thought it should be nonstop with a lot of action. The movie had too much dialogue and not that much action.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Oceans 11 Sinks
Review: The cast had such great potential, so did the plot.
Vegas was rarely seen.
People huddled in a room doesn't cut it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Ocean's 11 VHS
Review: I loved this movie! It was very funny. I saw it many times. The action packed film starred George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, and Julia Roberts. The movie was about Danny Ocean (Clooney), a just paroled criminal, who gets together 11 men to knock over three casinos. The casinos are owned by the boyfriend of Ocean's ex wife (Roberts). The acting is excellent and the special effects are spectacular. I highly recomend this movie!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Classy
Review: FANTASTIC MOVIE!! Clooney & Pitt... what a team! I rented it and bought it that same day. What an entertaining, well acted, well scripted and exciting movie!
