Saul asked Ocean if they were supposed to walk out of the casino with the 160M on them without getting stopped, and Ocean said "yes". Your comment was that he didn't explained how would they leave the casino. Well, he did. They literally walked out with the money, just like Saul said. 😂

[@LordVolkov]

All 4 modern Oceans (11,12,13,8) are fun and worth the watch for the cast chemistry, fun heists, and slick soundtracks. I think Scott Caan is one of the more underrated members of the crew. I think he's so funny when he bickers with Casey Affleck, and the intro when he laughs after crushing the RC car always makes me grin. For more of his movies - Varsity Blues and Into the Blue, both with Paul Walker (RIP).

[@rdramos13]

There is no Ocean's 8...no one speaks of Ocean's 8. There's a reason why it's poorly rated, and no sequel has been planned. The original Ocean's 11 (1960) with Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr, Dean Martin, and the rest of the Rat Pack might be a watch.

[@juliusperseus8612]

There's 3 Movie NOT 4.

[@Karadjanov]

Oceans 8? O.o Really!?! 11 12 and 13 are the Only Ocean's movies worth watching!

Imma watch the 1960 version soon

[@TheWizardsTales]

They weren't just using the young actors' at the poker game's real names, they were playing themselves... it's mentioned that Russ has been teaching Hollywood stars to play. Also, here is my best interpretation of the roles Rusty says they'll need for the heist: -"A Boesky:" A reference to Ivan Boesky, who was arrested for insider trading. This indicates an Inside Man, or someone who works at the casinos they'll be robbing. This is Bernie Mac's character, Frank Catton. -"A Jim Brown:" Jim Brown was an American football player who transitioned to acting. This is likely indicative of someone who can create a diversion. In this case, I believe Saul was their Jim Brown. -"Two Jethros:" Jethro Bodine, from The Beverly Hillbillies, was a bit of a dumb-bum but was a very skilled mechanic. The two Mormon brothers are the Jethros. -"A Miss Daisy:" Referencing "Driving Miss Daisy," where Morgan Freeman plays a driver. The meaning for this one is obvious. I don't know that they got a dedicated driver, but the Mormon brothers may also fulfill this role. (EDIT: I forgot, they do mention specifically the Malloys are to be the drivers). -"A Leon Spinks:" A professional boker. In the end the crew doesn't have a traditional "muscle," but this could mean Rusty, Linus, or Bruiser (who admittedly isn't counted as one of the eleven main crew).

Excellent rundown but let's not forget the biggest Ella Fitzgerald: Is it live or is it Memorex?

This is one of the most rewatchable movies ever made. I can't get tired of it. So much fun.

[@steved1135]

Yep, it is fun. I love a movie that delivers, and doesn't pretend to be anything else. A great heist flick with tons of character and charm.

[@zbennalley]

My favorite improv moment is Clooney's line saying,"Terry." And Garcia staying in character responding,"Danny???" Without taking his eyes off Tess but in a condensing manner was just beautiful.

[@cjohn64]

Actors have their agents negotiate with the studios/producers on their names in the credits. And they negotiate for poster positions as well. When a big name actor is in a small role they are usually at the end of the main actor credits listed as "with Actor A". You saw this with Samuel L. Jackson for the Avengers movies.

[@deanna9808]

And a famous example of how petty this can get, is Towering Inferno with Steve McQueen & Paul Newman. I think the negotiation led to them both credited on the same frame but one on the lower left and the other upper right, so one was first left to right and the other was first top to bottom. And then some films just to do 'In Order of Appearance' or 'In Alphabetical Order'

[@snowdenwyatt6276]

That's amusing. I just realized that this film features Don Cheadle and a "pinch" used to knock out electricity. About 15 years later, Captain America: Civil War featured Don Cheadle and a "pinch" used to knock out electricity...

[@jwcyrus81]

Great reaction! As always. All 4 of the Oceans movies are definitely worth a watch! Two of my favorite heist-style movies, aside from this one, are The Score (2001) and The Italian Job (2003). This was way funnier than those 2, but they're still worth a watch if you consider them. :)

[@georger.3489]

Fun movie with a fantastic cast. Clooney and Pitt are really great together. Thank you for the amazing reaction :)

What's amazing is that not only were Topher Grace, Holly Marie Combs et al weren't just playing themselves - they all went uncredited in the movie.

[@tylerfoster6267]

Ocean's Eleven was directed by Steven Soderbergh, who was one of the notable names to come out of the same indie wave in the late '80s and early '90s that also included Richard Linklater and Kevin Smith. In 1989, his film s*x, lies, and videotape (censored just in case KZbin doesn't like that title) became one of the movies that cemented the reputation of the Sundance Film Festival as a launching pad for up-and-coming filmmakers, and scored him an Oscar nomination. He continued to make increasingly large movies through the '90s, and in 2000s he directed Julia Roberts in an Oscar-winning performance as Erin Brockovich. Ocean's Eleven marks his full graduation from one kind of studio movie to a full-on commercial venture. One thing people don't necessarily mention that often is that Ocean's Eleven is also a remake, of a 1960 movie that starred Frank Sinatra and his Rat Pack. Other than the basic plot about a heist involving Las Vegas casinos, the films don't bear any similarities to each other (that I can remember). Don't think the original would be good for KZbin, but it might be enjoyable to watch on your own. There's one thing in particular that makes it very memorable (in fact, it's the only real thing I remember about it having not seen it in something like twenty years, but those who have seen the movie can probably guess what part I'm talking about). Rewatching this movie, I think the thing that stuck out to me, just like you, is the cast. Similar to Dazed and Confused, most of the cast here actually became as cool as they're recognized for being now because of or just after this movie. Back in the '90s and '00s, there was still a significant division between being a movie star and a TV star, and while Clooney was a hugely popular actor thanks to "ER", which turned him into a household name, I'd say it was the one-two punch of O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000) and this that made him into an A-lister. Matt Damon had an Oscar for writing Good Will Hunting, but he wouldn't appear in The Bourne Identity (2002) until the year after this movie. Similarly, Bernie Mac's popular sitcom "The Bernie Mac Show" premiered in November 2001, after he would've shot this film. Don Cheadle's biggest roles were previous collaborations with Soderbergh, Casey Affleck and Scott Caan were both actors standing in the shadow of more-famous relatives (Ben and James, respectively), Andy Garcia brings a certain vibe thanks to his key supporting roles in notable movies from Brian De Palma, Francis Ford Coppola, and Ridley Scott, among others, and Carl Reiner and Elliott Gould were both cast as a hat-tip to their heyday in the 1970s. It's a very savvy group of people, and Soderbergh deserves a lot of credit for assembling such a perfect crew. On one of the commentaries, they joke about how funny it is to them that Topher, as he's playing himself, exits the club at the beginning and is "recognized" by the crowd of extras, but George Clooney and Brad Pitt are ignored. It probably wasn't worth watching for, but speaking of credits, there's a little joke at the end of the initial rundown where they say "introducing Julia Roberts." (In general, I might recommend watching most movies until the scrolling credits start, because the early part of the credit, especially in more contemporary movies, often have some interesting visuals or stuff to watch. For example, I know you've seen Knives Out, and that early part of the credit has hand-painted portraits of the cast.) In addition to Twelve (which I would, perhaps controversially, say is the best one, for reasons I'll explain if/when you watch it), Thirteen, and 8, I have to agree with one of the other commenters that you should definitely check out Soderbergh's later heist movie Logan Lucky (2017), and his earlier heist-ish movie Out of Sight (1998). Out of Sight is also an adaptation of a book by a famous crime author named Elmore Leonard, and so if/when you watch it, you should plan on watching it right after you watch Quentin Tarantino's Jackie Brown (1997), which is also a Leonard adaptation. Not only do I think that will be a Tarantino movie you love, but it shares a fun connection with Out of Sight because of the books they're both based on, but I won't spoil what it is. 💸

[@portalina]

You kind of overstated a lot of their roles after this movie. Clooney had done some big movies, not the least of which was Rob Rodriguez’s From Dusk til Dawn along side Tarantino. Not to mention he was literally Batman and he was in the Perfect Storm, Out of Sight (which you mentioned later, lol), The Peacemaker, The Thin Red Line, Three Kings, and the chick flick One Fine Day. He was in Oscar winning movies long before he did Ocean’s. Like 5-6 years before Ocean’s. As for Matt Damon he did SAVING PRIVATE RYAN before this, forget Bourne. Not to mention The Talented Mr. Ripley, The Rainmaker, Rounders, mystic pizza (with Julia), Dogma, and The legend of Bagger Vance all before Ocean’s, so again, this did not “make” him. Don Cheadle did Boogie Nights, Rush Hour 2, Swordfish, Mission to Mars, Traffic, The Family Man, The Rat Pack, Out of Sight (again with Clooney),Bullworth, Volcano, Rosewood, Things to Do in Denver when you’re dead(with Andy Garcia), Devil in a Blue Dress, Meteor Man, and Colors all before Ocean’s. Scott Caan was in Gone in 60 Seconds, Varsity Blues (as you said), Enemy of the State, Gotti, as well as a half a dozen college comedies. Bernie Mac was a superstar in the late 90’s for his regular standup, but then went mega viral for the Kings of Comedy tour and Special, (along with DL Hugley, Steve Harvey and Cedric the Entertainer.) he was of course in Friday, as well as Life (with Martin Lawrence and Eddie Murphy), now to mention Above the Rim, What’s the Worst That Could Happen? (With Martin Lawrence, DeVito, John Leguinzamo), B.A.P.S with Halle Berry, Don King: Only in America, Mo Money, Get on the Bus, etc. Most of the cast wasn’t really “made” by this movie. The reason they were in it is because they had all proved themselves, and most of them had worked together a lot already. They all have connections to each other. Only one or two degrees of separation.

[@tylerfoster6267]

@@portalina What you're misunderstanding here is the difference between being a respected actor and being a household name, a movie star, an A-lister. "ER" makes Clooney a household name, but remember that it was a huge deal to "graduate" from TV to movies, and Batman & Robin was a punchline for decades. From Dusk Till Dawn was a success but not, like, a runaway success; both Rodriguez and Tarantino would respectively be coming off of much more successful movies (Desperado and Pulp Fiction, respectively), and at the time FDTD may have even been considered a flop. Damon was notable for SPR, he had already won an Oscar for GWH, but he is who he is now because of the Bourne movies, which were after Ocean's. So on and so forth. If you know movies, you know all these titles, yeah, but I would also be inclined to say that movie reactors -- an easy analogue for the kind of general viewer I was talking about here -- will tell you that Ocean's Eleven is a more well-known title than almost anything in your entire comment other than SPR and maybe Rush Hour and Gone in 60 Seconds, and quite a few of them were notable commercial and critical failures (Bagger Vance, for example, was about as dumped on as Batman & Robin). To me, it's like you're telling me Richard Dreyfuss and Harrison Ford were famous for American Graffiti. Yeah, okay, and that's a great, respected movie, but there's still a big difference between how famous they were for that in 1973 and how famous they became afterward for Jaws and Star Wars.

Please watch 12 and 13, they’re so much fun too! Great Reaction!!!

[@swordmonkey6635]

The "pinch" is an EMP device that sends out an electromagnetic burst that overrides almost all electronics by shorting them out with a high spike of electric energy. EMP are usually tied to nuclear explosions since they are a natural occurrence that happens during an nuclear explosion done in atmosphere. They whole "but without the mess of mass destruction and death" line is about a device that creates an EMP on its own.

[@swordmonkey6635]

Ocean's 12 and 13 are good. Get bigger as they go along. Still clever and stylish.

[@deanfranklin6465]

Yes you should definitely watch all of the Ocean's movies! Yes watch more heist movies!

Oh just hearing that means I won't skip it!! Thank you.

[@T0xiikGaz14]

I mean first of all Marvel themselves called it the M-She-U lmao, but most importantly the first 3 are a real trilogy and realised by Soderbergh, when Ocean's 8 is pretty much just a soft reboot years later made only to make a few bucks surfing on the feminist wave, and you can't really denied that with the number of bad remake that have been done replacing the whole cast with women in this period.

A great reaction! This is one of the few remakes that I think is better than the original. The 1960 version is still good, starring Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. Another brilliant film you'll definitely like is The Sting (1973), a great plan executed beautifully, with charismatic leads as well. I think it won several Oscars too

[@kevinbrown7306]

You mentioned not knowing poker... the game early in the movie is actually telling a lot about the characters. They were taking the opportunity to run a quick scam on the "actors" learning the game... Brad was goading the bets up because Clooney had the winning hand, and it was all improvised. It showed they knew each other well and enjoyed outsmarting others. The table talk also subtly stated their priorities that would apply to the larger job.

When the team is loading the 💰money💰 and several of the others are watching it on camera, Saul just pipes in with, “That is the sexiest thing I have ever seen.” I don’t know why, but I crack up at that line every time, the delivery is just perfect.

Other heist movies for your reference: The Italian Job (1969) with Michael Caine, and its remake from 2003 with Mark Wahlberg; The Thomas Crown Affair (1968) with Steve McQueen and Faye Dunaway and its remake (1999) with Pierce Brosnan and Rene Russo. You can also throw in The Sting (1973) with Robert Redford and Paul Newman, Entrapment (1999) with Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta-Jones, and the grandaddy of heist movies, the French film Rififi (1955), which features an amazing heist sequence with no music and no dialogue. 🤑🤑🤑

Great movie and reaction! I haven't seen 13 but the others are all great too (be wary of advice to avoid the last one; there was a predictable response to its female cast 🤦‍♂). Re Don Cheadle, I suspect he actually pulled his credit when he realized how bad his accent sounded 😁

[@petercofrancesco9812]

Oceans 11 is a classic. Saying that ironically this is actually a remake of the original from 1960. Never seen it but might be fun to watch that. The other sequels are not as good but probably would make sense clickwise to watch them all. Don Cheatle story I learned about the same way. What it reveals there are ego and money fights behind the scenes even in the movies we love. It's still a business after all. What's amazing is when movie magic happens in spite of all that.

[@1wwtom]

The beginning and end scenes were shot at the Rahway State Prison in NJ. While they were there in NJ the scene with Clooney on the phone with his truant officer, you can see the logo of the Trump Plaza casino in Atlantic City NJ. The scene of Clooney going up the escalator to meet Frank was there going up from the Boardwalk. The Donald once owned 3 casinos in AC. The Trump Plaza has since been demolished, The Taj Mahal casino which is now the Hard Rock and the Trump Marina casino is now the Golden Nugget. I've stayed in all of them at times in the past. FYI since Steve Wynn left Las Vegas, none of the casinos are owned by any individuals. All of them are owned by Corporations.

[@zombiepicnic9683]

I totally understand what you mean about Brad Pitt's attractiveness. In the late 90s/early 2000s he was the go-to "hottest" guy celebrity, the "hottest" woman celeb from that time was Pam Anderson. My reaction to her was the same as yours to Pitt, and I always caught flack for it. Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder. Also, Anderson being Canadian had no bearing on my opinion. My celeb crush from that era was Ontario's own Neve Campbell.

[@IDLERACER]

😎 Freeze the frame at 24:24. That actress is Angie Dickenson who, in the original version of Ocean's Eleven from 1960, played the approximate equivalent of Julia Roberts' part. 😄 I'm always amused whenever I hear young people like yourself say "Elliott Gould will always be such and such's father from Friends." 😁 Old people like me remember the period from 1968 through 1974 when he was an A-list leading man. In "Getting Straight" (1970), one of his co-stars was a young (and extremely stoned) Harrison Ford. In "The Long Goodbye" (1973) you can catch a glimpse of an even younger Arnold Schwarzenegger. 🥸 As for heist movies, a really great one is "Now You See Me" (2013). It includes a similarly stacked cast: Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Mark Ruffalo, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman and Isla Fisher among others. 😉👍

💰💰💰 It's a fun movie. My wife enjoys it. Although, it's not actually her favorite heist movie. She really likes The Italian Job. The new one. Not the old one. Actually... there's an old one of Ocean's Eleven, also. I like the pacing of the newer movies. Yeah... I guess I just got used to the faster editing, quick cuts, and such. Long, slow shots nowadays seem so... long... and slow... At any rate, I guess what I like about this movie is the easy chemistry between all the folks. I don't know what it was like on set, but they seemed to all get along. I hadn't heard that about Don Cheadle. But... I guess it's what it is. I think your agent does those negotiations with the producers of the movie. Or, their representatives. Yeah... I have no desire to be an actor, nor to be a public figure. I'm content to do my work quietly, without fanfare. The highest compliment I am paid is whenever I take some time off for vacation, when I get back, my coworkers, who have to work my shift, tell me, "I'm so glad your back!" Ah, but when the customer tells me, "We're so glad you're back." Makes me feel appreciated. And, I appreciate you. When did you change the name of your channel? I only just now noticed. KL? I guess that's easier to spell than Kaiielle. But, "Movies with KL" is more descriptive. I'm just glad that you're still on my subscription list! Thank you, as always, for the watch.

When u mentioned the style of filming when Matt Damon was introduced…I never noticed it till u said something…and now, and I may be wrong…but isn’t it the similar style to certain scenes from Bourne Identity? If so…that’s a nice lil Easter egg/tip of the hat to that film and to Damon being in this (I’m not sure of timeline of which came out first so I may be totally off depending on release dates lol)

Although you didn't show it, there is part where Saul is start to see of Daniel & Russ and he says, "I owe from the thing with the guy in the place and I'll never forget it." And of course, the exposition of how it was done as Terry realizes what happened. Also, you said you couldn't be with guy who was always in jail but Daniel wasn't. The only time he got caught was after Tess left and he wasn't in the best frame of mind to a heist. Yes, Terry helped get him violated on a parole issue but that was only a short time. Other than that, is only allegations with no arrests or convictions.

One of my favorite heist movies that feels a lot like this but not quite as much humor is The Italian Job. Hardly any reactors have reacted to it.

[@havok6280]

This is my second favorite heist movie after The Italian Job...

Your information is so thorough and detailed that I probably missed it during my search of your channel/website but do you have a document or excel of all the movies/shows you have seen (on and off YT) so we know what not to recommend? Some of my favourite moments are: the celebrities playing poker in the beginning and getting conned by Danny and Rusty; The scene where Rusty gets Basher out of getting arrested; and fountain scene at the end. Such a great movie. 💰💰💰

💸 It took me an embarrasingly long time to realize that this movie wasn't about the money. The heist was winning back Tess. Makes you wonder... how far would you go to win your love back? Yeah it's not perfect, but I love this movie. I can't decide whether I like this one more than Ocean's 12. If you're into the old films, Ocean's 11 from 1960 might tickle your fancy. Sinatra, Deano, Sammy Davis Jr... plenty of old school cool in old Vegas.

26:13 That's what she said. (Sorry, it was too good to pass up)

[@orangewarm1]

the last scene come from the end of The Right Stuff

[@Compuman202]

11,12,& 13 are good. 8 was done much later and includes no one from these movies but it’s all girls and was a decent watch but these 3 the chemistry was great.

[@Raven5150]

Thing about Vegas, they will comp you a buffet if you ask, cause they know they make there money in many other ways

The original Ocean's 11 with The Rat Pack is pretty slow and not great with the one glaring exception being that it contains one of the all time classic twist endings to a Hollywood motion picture in the entire history of cinema. George Clooney had said his whole reason for wanting to remake the original was for that banger of a finale rug pull on the audience at the end. But, it was the director Steven Sodenburg who vetoed this saying they needed their own surprise twist ending so anyone old enough that remembered the Rat Pack version from the 60's would be surprised too. That said, the original ending is awesome and has a kind of old Rod Serling's Twilight Zone sense of a morality play poetry to its climax and greed of the main characters who are our 'heroes.' Outside of that, this movie improves on the original in every other possible way and then some. Movie stars getting to be movie stars. Julia Roberts is the honorary 12th Ocean. She is just so timelessly freakin' cool

Ah, back when it used to just be a fun, entertaining night at the theater

[@robertfalcon6083]

All fun movies! Though 11 and 13 are my fave

[@PatrickPrejusa]

ALL THE OCEANS MOVIES ARE WORTH WATCHING. CERTAINLY WATCH OTHER HEIST MOVIES. THE SAINT AND THOMAS CROWN FFAIR.

[@adaddinsane]

I love a good heist movie, and this is a GREAT heist movie. I even tolerate Don Cheadle's "Cockney" accent - I guess it was just impossible to find a British actor in Hollywood. We know how hard that is. 💲💲💲

[@christiansabotta6368]

Highly recommend The Italian Job, heist movie.

[@deenormus1975]

Btw, mama - that bold red lip is fabulous on u. Perfection.

[@Cobinja]
