Stylish remake of 1960 Rat Pack classic about daring crook Daniel Ocean (Clooney) and 10 cohorts who plan to rob the casino vaults belonging Ocean's personal nemesis.
A nice effort to remake a fun (albeit not terrific) original film. The Julia Roberts character was inserted into this telling and proves a worthwhile effort. She gives an interesting edge to the film and performs well. A wonderful ensemble cast makes up Ocean's eleven thieves and fills any call for egos and personal vendettas in the movie.
Soderbergh 's cool direction style is a big plus here and is especially enjoyable when the group's elaborate plan unfolds.
Directed by Steven Soderbergh.
