Steven Soderbergh's 2001 remake of the 1960 Rat Pack pseudo-classic "Ocean's Eleven" spins the tale of Danny Ocean, a con man ten feet out of prison brewing his best scheme yet. He gathers up ten specifically chosen accomplices to pull off a very profitable, perfect crime that involves simultaneously ripping off three major Las Vegas casinos. George Clooney heads up a film that is busting at the seams with familiar faces. This is modern-day heist movie-making at its sharpest and most stylish, written by the screenwriter of "Matchstick Men" and directed by the prolific filmmaker behind the likes of "Out of Sight". It's one of those highly entertaining movies with so many intricate pieces flying through the air that predictably fall into place by the end. "Ocean's Eleven" is just great, satisfying fun!
