What is Ocean's Eleven about?
Danny Ocean and his gang attempt to rob the five biggest casinos in Las Vegas in one night.
Does it have a happy ending? (spoiler-safe)
Yes. It lands on a happy note.
A stylish crew pulls off a daring Las Vegas heist with witty banter and broad, crowd-pleasing humor.
Campy and pulpy, with dry wit. A date-night pick at a brisk pace. Emotionally it carries some weight.
