Ocean's Eleven Reviews
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.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | May 5, 2024
Ocean's Eleven is pure entertainment.
| Original Score: 5/5 | Apr 28, 2024
It’s well - paced and completely entertaining and -- unlike its predecessor -- this take on Ocean's Eleven even has a semimeaningful plot.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 26, 2023
Is Ocean’s Eleven the coolest film ever made? It’s certainly a contender.
| Original Score: 4/4 | Jun 22, 2023
Steven Soderbergh and his cool cast accomplish what Lewis Milestone couldn’t with the original Vegas playboy Rat Pack back in the 1960s: they swing to the beat of the heist.

Soderbergh luxuriates in the sheer lazy pleasure of a straightforward big Hollywood vehicle. He drives it better than most, but this one stalls on him just the same.
| Original Score: C | Sep 17, 2022
Twenty years on, Ocean's 11 has become a time capsule, capturing not only the moment between Las Vegas's split identities, but also the last go-round of the Movie Star era.

It's a compulsively re-watchable, funny, exciting, and altogether fun movie, one of the best of director Steven Soderbergh's career. (20th anniversary)
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Dec 15, 2021
Ocean's Eleven was and is a film worth watching, and there is practically a laundry list of reasons why that is.
| Dec 13, 2021
One big, slick heist, dripping with style, and bobbing with energy...
| Mar 30, 2021
A big-budget, stylish heist film with an A-list cast, well-suited to match.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Nov 7, 2020
Quite possibly one of the best remakes ever made
| Sep 25, 2020
Although Soderbergh makes the audience privy to most of the Ocean crew's scheming, he keeps some details back so that the ultimate execution of the sting is a surprise for us.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 25, 2020
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.
| Mar 16, 2020
Combining enough star wattage to rival the lights of Vegas, the writing talents of Ted Griffin and Soderbergh's incredible directorial and cinematographic gifts, you've got yourself a winner that will stand the test of time.
| Nov 7, 2019
Soderbergh absolutely nailed the formula for a modern heist movie, in a fashion so satisfying that nothing (including the film's sequels) has been able to match it since.
| Original Score: 8/10 | Aug 23, 2019
Somehow this has emerged as one of the more entertaining films I've seen in months.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 22, 2018
As tight and bright a jolt of jumped-up joshing-around as you'll ever encounter.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 29, 2018
Extremely slick yet consistently entertaining...
| Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 7, 2018
One of the greatest dessert courses in contemporary cinema.
| Original Score: 10/10 | Dec 4, 2016
