Film Review: Ocean's Eleven


Ocean's Eleven
2001
1 hr 50 min
Directed by Steven Soderbergh
Starring George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Julia Roberts

Plot: Danny Ocean and his ten accomplices plan to rob three Las Vegas casinos simultaneously.

I'll try to keep this one short, because I didn't feel there was much to say about this film. Not that it's a bad movie...in fact it was quite entertaining. It was just fluff entertainment. I thought it was a fairly entertaining heist movie with an unnesessary and annoying love story. The gluttony of stars was interesting, but I really don't like George Clooney or Brad Pitt. I just find them annoying in everything they're in. Anyway, I guess that's it. I don't have much to say about this flick. Overall, a good way to kill a couple hours, but I wouldn't put it on any 'great films' list.

Another surprise attack on two of America's male sweethearts! Marxistgopher and attractive actors are oil and water. ASPIRING ACTORS HEED!
The only way to be accepted in marxistgopher land is to have acid poured on your face as torture and punishment for attempting to overthrow a corrupt Dole fruits controled Central American nation. Only after you activism changes to propaganda phase through acting and you are financially unsuccessful through eight straight obscure movies, does marxistgopher deem you to be quality...
Good actors are hard to find when the film industry is rank with stinky capitalist...
