Rated PG, directed by Steven Soderbergh, with George Clooney (Danny Ocean), Brad Pitt (Rusty Ryan), Matt Damon (Linus Caldwell), Andy Garcia (Terry Benedict), Julia Roberts (Tess Ocean), running time: 116 minutes.
Danny Ocean is a gambling man. But instead of trying to beat the house, he decides to put together a team of guys and rob it instead -- actually three casinos at the same time. His right-hand man, Rusty, has been idling away teaching poker to hot young actors and signs on to Ocean's plan without blinking. Ocean also has an ulterior motive: To get the attention of his ex wife, Tess, who happens to be working for and involved with the owner of the casinos he plans to heist. With security at the casinos to rival that of Fort Knox, the crew will need all the help they can get. Steven Soderberg's stylish remake has all the charm of the 1960 original, starring Frank Sinatra, and a great deal more acting talent.
