George Clooney's performance, and how Brad made it possible

Rating: 10/10 (8 December 2001)

This movie caught the wonderful suave, wit, and pure entertainment bliss that is found in this original! George Clooney successfully portrays a robber whose capers are beyond remarkably brilliant, but also incredibly easy to get caught. "Ocean's 11" had me guessing for exactly how they could not only conceive, but actually carry out, and keeps you wondering: just who is the bad guy? (Brad Pitt's ability to play the second hand man was also worth mentioning, he carried the show and the whole concept should not even be allowed into anyone's dreams without a guy like that.)
