    Any Oceans Movie fans?

    I really dig this little trilogy of sorts. I usually do not like Clooney, but this is just fantastic stuff. The actors really play off eachother and some of the improved stuff is priceless. The editing and pacing keeping each character in the story with multi-panelled shots is perfect. THe second movie was a little bit dull, but I love them all. I just recently got Netflix streaming so I'll have to check out if they're on there.
    I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

    If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

      I love all the Ocean's movies...very cool vibe to them...however...Julia Roberts got on my nerves in the second one (Ocean's 12)...she playing in character...plus the "celebrity" Julia Roberts...that was self-indulgent and rather obnoxious...other than that...Ocean's flicks rules.

            The original is good (very suave)...but the remakes are better...better acting for one thing, lol.



            P.S. Al Pacino plays a great villain in the third one (Ocean's 13).

              I agree.

              Every character she plays is obnoxious. She might be my least favorite actress of our generation.

              Elliot Gould's character is one of my faves.

                  Love the original, just watched it again. Not a big fan of the remakes at all.

                    I just watched the original with Sinatra and thought it was awful, the first 45 minutes of the film is really bad.

                    I have not seen the remakes but the first one is supposed to be a good film.

                        I've seen the original and the remakes, and like them all. I'd also recommend 'Robin and the 7 Hoods' to anyone who wants to see more Rat Pack.

                          I really like the Rat Pack version, I've only ever seen the first remake and I thought it was a decent updating.

                              As much as I love the original (I am a big Rat Pack fan), the remake was much better. I did not care for the 2 new sequels.
