The end result of the production leaves the viewer stunned by the complexities and degree of difficulty the protagonist heroes were able to overcome to amass great personal fortunes. Oceans Eleven neglects uniquely characteristic elements of the neo-noir sub-genre by rejecting darker or potentially more sinister factors from inclusion within the storyline. This instant classic sets the bar high, distinguishing itself among others in the sub-genre, by romanticizing virtually every aspect of the film.Įlegant settings and costumes, and his ability to capture the wonderful naturally developed relationships between characters, allow for Soderbergh to create a film that transcends a few traditional aspects of the Heist sub-genre as a whole. Steven Soderbergh’s 2001 remake of the hugely popular Ocean’s Eleven film derives its large-scale praise from a delightful and brilliant combination of strong lead and supporting characters, witty dialogue, wonderfully incorporated musical-score and a creatively complex woven masterpiece of ingenuity and flawless precision.
