Ocean's Eleven Audience Reviews

Micransix Crappy film
Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
saru-88447 Watching it after nearly 17 years and still not bad which automatically equals to the best in those times.
alcantaraj-16594 I was never interested in seeing "Oceans Eleven," though "Ocean's 8"'s release slightly made me want to see this film as well as its sequels. One boring day, I decided to watch and I had very low expectations. After watching it, I HAD A BLAST... at the film's 2nd and 3rd acts.Acts 2 & 3 - FUN AND SMART! The planning and execution of the heist was a brilliant ride from act 2's start to act 3's end. These acts were near-perfection! (Some parts were slightly boring)ACT 1 - The film has a lot of supporting characters which, sadly, meant a lot of dragged and sometimes uninteresting introductions to said characters. If act 1 was the entire film, I'd give "Ocean's Eleven" 4 stars. Thankfully, it's not.NOTE: Though the character introductions were too long and, at times, uninteresting, the actors did their best. Their on-screen charisma made these scenes slightly better.I still have one more flaw with this film: Julia Roberts' character. Despite her amazing performance, her character was just a plot device for Danny Ocean. Yes, a plot device is important but when a character is a plot device, the film shouldn't make you feel that said character IS a plot device.Overall, I had a blast with "Ocean's Eleven!"
betty dalton Lost count of how many times I have seen it. Enjoyed it everytime. Never mind the sequels, only "Oceans Eleven" is the real deal, the gem amongst ALL heist movies. With an amazing star cast featuring George Clooney, Brad PItt and Julia Roberts this picture is an actors walhalla. Splendid direction by the man who has got the best fingerspitzengefuhl of entire Hollywood, Mister Steven Soderbergh.Eleven men rob a casino. One of them has got a Ted Nugent shirt. That's the story. Will they succeed? That's the suspense. How do they do it? That's the brilliance of this masterful story. There are so many little subtle details that are eye candy that even after having watched it over 20 times I still get surprised by it. Those who wrote this story really must have had a field day, because the plot is simple but how the story is revealed to the public is very intelligent. Highly enjoyable twists and turns.Entertaining for the masses and entertainig for the movie critics too. It is liked by everyone. "Ocean's Eleven" has got it all. It is one of those classics that will stand the test of time. A movie that you can watch at any time, with anyone for every occasion. It is the ultimate crowd pleasing heist flick, but it is done so brilliantly, it deserves nothing but praise. And a good laugh!
klheintz Ocean's Eleven follows the story of Danny Ocean putting together the biggest heist Vegas has ever seen. He enlists the help of a few close friends to help him put together an impossible team for an impossible job, and it's fun the whole way through. If you don't pay attention to some glaring plot holes.I enjoy this film, I really do. Even with the blatant plot holes, unbelievable means by which they pull of the heist, and the back-and- forth character motivations it is by no means a perfect film. But is a fun ride the whole way through and I am glad that I watched it. Ocean's Eleven wastes no time getting right into the heist, and the sequence of scenes depicting the gang being brought together is fun to watch and does a decent job of setting up some of their individual backstory. But these backstories, while serving the purpose of the film, do not give audiences much that seems very exciting except for maybe Tarr's bank heist. Steven Soderbergh utilizes more than just quick and witty dialogue to advance the plot but also takes advantage of silent storytelling with some scenes containing no dialogue whatsoever. He does this throughout not only this sequence, but various other scenes in the film as well. It's a nice upbeat way to advance the plot and break up major parts of the film.I have yet to talk about cast and this is one of my favorite aspects of this film. I have always been a fan of both Clooney and Pitt, so seeing them on screen interacting with each other is very cool. Sure, Brad Pitt's character, Rusty, kind of feels like a mat for Ocean's dialogue to bounce of, but it was enjoyable throughout. Most of the other characters don't have scenes that really stick out as fun dialogue or even good interaction except Andy Garcia as Terry Benedict.Something the film does terribly is the motivation and choices some of these characters make. Oh and the plot holes with the hooker ads somehow getting into the vault out of nowhere. Like what is that!? But back to these motivations/decisions. In what world does it make sense for Tess, who left Ocean because he was a liar, to go back to Ocean? That makes absolutely no sense to me. The better option, the option that should have happened, was for her to realize she's nothing but a trophy to them and leave. Ridiculous… like the hooker ads somehow showing up inside the vault. Overall, I believe this is a solid heist film. Yes, it has a few plot holes but, the character decisions will make you confused, and it has some weird accents but I think it is an enjoyable ride throughout and definitely one I would recommend to someone for some light viewing.
