$12.99 - Ocean's Eleven [Blu-ray]
Product DescriptionDanny Ocean likes his chances. All he asks is that his handpicked squad of 10 grifters and cons play the game like they have nothing to lose. If all goes right, the payoff will be a fat $150 million. Divided by 11. You do the math.
Ocean's Eleven improves on 1960's Rat Pack original with supernova casting, a slickly updated plot, and Steven Soderbergh's graceful touch behind the camera. Soderbergh reportedly relished the opportunity "to make a movie that has no desire except to give pleasure from beginning to end," and he succeeds on those terms, blessed by the casting of George Clooney as Danny Ocean, the title role originated by Frank Sinatra. Fresh out of jail, Ocean masterminds a plot to steal $163 million from the seemingly impervious vault of Las Vegas's Bellagio casino, not just for the money but to win his ex-wife (Julia Roberts) back from the casino's ruthless owner (Andy Garcia). Soderbergh doesn't scrimp on the caper's comically intricate strategy, but he finds greater joy in assembling a stellar team (including Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Don Cheadle, and Carl Reiner) and indulging their strengths as actors. The result is a film that's as smooth as a silk suit and just as stylish. --Jeff Shannon

Summary : Great movie-Lousy Blu-ray
Bought this to watch again on my new blu-ray. Very grainy and yes i reduced the sharpness to make sure. When Tess and Daniel meet for the first time in the movie, there is so much grain that you can see it kinda move around. My rating is 5 stars for the flick, and 1 star for the blu-ray xfer.

Summary : Excellent Movie, Okay Quality
I'm not a movie critic so I won't get into too much detail about liking the movie, it is all about taste. However, the quality of the blu ray left a lot to be desired, especially towards the end where there are serious color quality issues. I had the movie initially on DVD and did not have the color issues (extreme redness in the face of Bank and the diamond critic). However, the movie was only a few dollars, which is much cheaper than what the DVD costs at my local WalMart and Target.

Summary : Great Movie with great action!
This movie is a classic remake of the old Ocean's 11. This movie has great actors in it who really hit their parts in this movie. I owned both the Blu-ray along the DVD and the Blu-ray is the way to go! Don't let the 1 and 2 star reviews fool you, anyone who says this movie was poorly written does not know anything about movies or has not seen the first Oceans 11. This movie grossed over 450 million in the theaters alone world wide and not including DVD/Blu-ray sales.

Summary : Awesome Movie!
I loved this movie so I had to buy it on blu-ray. I think it is the best of the three so it is a must. If you've ever seen a blu-ray movie than you know how great a quality they are. No complaints here.
