Pros: Cast. Entertaining movie. Cons: Jerky camera work in places. Some of the cast not used enough.
In December of 2001, a new version of Oc
ean's
Eleven was released. The movie featured several big names like George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and Julia Roberts. I saw the movie in the theater, have the DVD, and have watched ...

Pros: Lots of big name stars, a few really funny parts, Matt Damon's Character Cons: Just way to many actors involved, flat story, could have been funnier
Ocean's Eleven came out in 2001, and was jam packed with the stars of Hollywood. Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Julia Roberts, and Matt Damon were just a few of the stars that graced the screen in this film, and it drew in a wide-ranging audience of people. ...

Pros: The actors remember what they're supposed to do Cons: The writer and director are clueless
The Steven Soderbergh version of "Ocean's Eleven" ended as so many movies these days do. He left open the possibility of sequel. "Ocean's Twelve" catches up to the gang three years after robbing the hotels and casinos owned by Terry Benedict (Andy ...

Pros: some fun moments, Pitt, Zeta-Jones, some clever lines, nice scenery Cons: PLOT, Julia Roberts, pacing
It's appropriate that a hologram is one of the central concepts in Ocean's 12 because the film is all image and no substance. Steven Soderbergh's latest release is messy, self-indulgent, and, at times, just plain boring. Leaving the theater, I ...

Pros: Entertaining cast with actors having a lot of fun Cons: Not in Las Vegas and a slightly flawed plot
Oceans
Eleven will always have a special place in my heart. It's a funny and entertaining film set in my home away from home, Las Vegas. Apparently plenty of other people agreed as the film grossed upwards ...

Pros: interesting, funny in parts, interesting capers Cons: forced, predictable in parts, annoyingly directed
Ocean's Twelve may be the Empire Strikes Back of the Ocean's Eleven universe. If, by that, you think I mean it has better production values than the original, think again. If you think the action is light years ahead of the first run, think again ...

Pros: Great Acting, Beautiful Scenes and People all set to great music Cons: I've seen better writing on a men's room wall
Oceans Eleven disappointed me the first time I saw it in the theater, but has since become a minor favorite of mine through multiple viewings on cable. It's the kind of movie I won't buy on DVD, but I'll usually stop and watch for a bit when I'm ...

Pros: Enjoyable with the same key players and a sense of fun. Cons: A little choppy; not at slick and cohesive as the first.
Ocean's Eleven is one of my fav
orite
recent movies, as it seamlessly excels in nearly every aspect of filmmaking. So of course I eagerly anticipated the release of this sequel, Ocean's Twelve, although I ...

Pros: Pitt, Soderbergh tries really really hard Cons: Not enough room for the entire cast to roam
Three years after robbing the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas, and, more importantly, getting away with it, Danny Ocean and his crew are living high on the hog, enjoying the fruits of their labours. Though not completely. In the back of their collective ...

Pros: … Cons: …
Warning: I give away a lot of details about this movie as well as the ending of Ocean’s Eleven. If you haven’t seen either of the movies, you might want to wait before reading this review. I generally don’t like sequels. There are ...

Pros: humorous, many good ideas... Cons: ...many good ideas not executed well enough, too long, too slow etc
The Hollywood heist movie has been revitalized in recent years. With films like Snatch, The Italian Job, and The Ladykillers, humor and fast paced action/storytelling combined to form an extremely enjoyable blueprint. But none of ...

Pros: Returning cast; Vincent Cassel; funny and some inspired moments
Cons: Resolution is too far fetched to be believed; some inspired moments too heavy handed
If ever a director needed a hit, it's Steven Soderbergh. Two years after the one-two setback of his ambiguous arthouse flop "Full Frontal" and the godawful, existential sci-fi black hole "Solaris," the Oscar winning auteur returns to safe, commercially ...

Pros: Cool opening and story, the cast is back along with first one's filmmaking style Cons: Confusing subplots, More characters, Less cast screentime, less humor, STINKER DVD
Ocean's Twelve is where Ocean's Eleven left off, with Danny Ocean's eleven man crew having pulled off a successful heist in Las Vegas. Now, the gang has met up again to pull off more heists, only this time it's all over Europe. This is due to the fact, ...

Pros: All the cast are good, nice costuming, funny at times Cons: Direction, score, so-so plot, hard to follow at times
Not being much of a fan of Oceans Eleven, you can imagine the struggle that emerged when I learned my family (and apparentely me aswell) were going to see what would surely be a sub-par sequel. I fought the good fight, but in light of it being the ...

Pros: Great cast, visually entertaining, clever script Cons: Not enough of certain cast members
You knew that it couldnt be that easy to get away with $165 million right? After three years of living life quietly, Terry Benedict (Andy Garcia) has caught up with the eleven who out smarted him and made off with his money. Terry has a heart; ...
