OCEANS 11                  1 1/2
Rated PG 13 for violence, sexual scenes and language.
Warner Brothers
Website: www.oceans11movie.net

      The remake of  “Ocean’s 11” has as much sparkle as yesterday’s parade glitter. George Clooney and his cast mates have gotten themselves into a high tech “score” movie that just falls in line with those that came before—“The Score,” “The Heist,” etc.  To make it simple, rent the original with Frank Sinatra and enjoy his Rat Pack, of Peter Lawford, Sammy Davis, Jr. and Angie Dickinson.

      “Ocean’s 11” concerns the adventures of one, Danny Ocean (Clooney from “O Brother, Where Art Thou”) who is fresh from prison and planning to rob three Vegas casinos on one night.  He pulls together ten men and they start planning.  Each of the group has a story, but we have so little time to perceive it, it’s not worth mentioning.  The cast is certainly all-star, there is Matt Damon (“The Legend of Bagger Vance”), Andy Garcia (“The Godfather Part III”), Brad Pitt (“Spy Game”), Julia Roberts (“The Mexican”),Casey Affleck (“To Die For”), Scott Caan (“Novocaine”), Don Cheadle (“Traffic”), Elliott Gould (television’s “Friends”), Bernie Mac (television’s “The Bernie Mac Show”), Carl Reiner (everyone knows who he is), Eddie Jemison (“The Relic”) and newcomer Shaobo Qin. Amen.

           “Ocean’s 11” has glitz (the Las Vegas strip) and glamour (a boxing match with stars at ringside), but director Steven Soderbergh runs this film like a cross between “Mission Impossible” and “Hogan’s Heroes.” Just when you think something has happened to stop the master plan, the audience discovers this obstacle has been paid off and is in on the plan.  It happens once too often.  At this rate, there won’t be any loot left for vacationing in the Bahamas.   

      Andy Garcia owns one of the casinos and it has a vault ten times better than Fort Knox.  The gang is after 160 milliondollars, give or take a few cents. Clooney plays Robert’s ex-husband and she is now dating Garcia.  So much for the love story.  The rest of the time, we see explosives being placed, people being distracted, Roberts looking thoughtful, Clooney looking tired and Carl Reiner trying not to sweat.  The only parts to hold your interest are the interplay between Caan and Affleck as two brothers in arrested development and Andy Garcia as he wears his best “Godfather Part III” demeanor. (Will Part IV ever be made?) There are a few one-liners in “Ocean’s 11” that are tossed off like discarded wrappers. Different ending than original film and this one begs for a sequel. Yawn.
