Advantages: Cleverly made

Disadvantages: Maybe not for very young kids

This is a very well made remark of the original Ocean's Eleven, a heist movie staring Frank Sinatra. The main character of this film is Daniel Ocean, who recently released from prison, decides he will rob a casino (moreover the vault for three casinos). The first part of the film sees him assembling his team of 11 (including himself). This is well done, with each person being propositioned and picked up individually (except for a set of twins). The music helps drive the recruitment process and by the time he has all his people assembled you really feel into the film and ready for the heist.

It is very slickly put together, with suspense mixed in with romance mixed in with comedy. The acting is superb (except for Don Cheadle's cockney accent which is at least comical) as is the music choice- particularly 'A Little Less Conversation'.

Perhaps one slight annoyance is the use of the 'f-word' twice which is what pushes the rating up. If you think your kids won't notice or you don't mind this then it will make for a great family night of entertainment. Regardless of this it is a great film to watch at any age.

Summary: Great fun
