The original 1960 Ocean’s 11 with the Rat Pack (Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford, and Joey Bishop) plus a host of other top names of that era, is definitely worth watching.
Great reaction James, again one of the best comments ever, “well that’s not much of a gift, well it was for her” hahahhaa omg I laughed so hard. Thanks for all the fun 😊❤
I don't know if you're into REwatching movies but this is a fun one to watch again- you get to pick up on all the little things that they put in place to pull off this heist.
The "old man" is Carl Reiner, father of actor/director Rob Reiner. He and Mel Brooks were a comedy duo and released recordings in the '60s of "The 2000 Year Old Man". He also played the character Alan Brady on the old Dick VanDyke show. Elliott Gould, besides being Monica's dad on Friends, played Trapper John McIntyre in the 1970 movie version of M*A*S*H.
I love all three of Clooney’s Ocean movies. Some people are divided on 12’s meta humor, but I personally thought it was some of the funniest comedy I’ve seen.
Personally, I find 12 the most entertaining. I know I'm in the minority, but I'm a film fan, so it being a deliberate European film semi-tribute really makes it so much funnier.
I found 12 entertaining, it's just really convoluted compared to 11 and 13. It's one of the messiest movies that's otherwise very competent that I've ever seen.
29:48 the batteries for the “detonator” actually were dead. This little scene wasn’t in the script. George Clooney and Matt Damon improvised their lines. The batteries were actually used to power the little lights on a the “detonator”.
Dont ever worry about the thing with the guy in the place. We all know that is an entirely hypothetical situation that we all have plausible deniability for..... Allegedly.
Saul (the old guy who faked the heart attack) was played by the legendary Carl Reiner, comedy writer and actor, executive producer on many comedy series such as the Dick Van Dyke show (he also played Rob Petrie's boss), best friend of Mel Brooks and comedy partner of Mel's going way back, including their famous bit, the 10,000 year old man. He is also Rob Reiner's dad. Also a writer, actor, director, and producer, Rob Reiner played, among other things, Meathead on All in the Family and the documentarian in This Is Spinal Tap. He directed the latter as well as Stand By Me, The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, and more.
Should seriously watch "The Sting". One of the greatest old movies and it's like Ocean's Eleven. Very famous classic movie and it's really good. Note: I recommend the one with Paul Newman. Yeah it's a classic movie that was remade but the remake is still a classic. Ironically like Ocean's Eleven.
Won the Best Picture Oscar. It was the first grown-up (as opposed to kids or family) film I ever saw, at the movie theater with my family when I was seven. I was born and raised in Joliet, Illinois, so when the film opened with the date/place card saying it was 1936 Joliet, well, I don’t think I have ever heard a movie theater crowd just erupt in cheers like that, before or since! That film left me with a lifelong love of ragtime, grifter films, and Robert Redford. BTW, the film was only made the one time. There was a sequel with Mac Davis and I believe Jackie Gleason. I never saw it.
Brad Pitt is always eating in this film. Did you notice. 😂😂 You should see King of Thieves. It’s a gold heist movie based on a true story, the Hatton Garden heist in London, carried out by a gang of old aged robbers. Cast is excellent. Legendary old English actors in the cast including Michael Caine who was in The Italian Job in the 60’s and was on his 80’s when he made this. I know you do US movies but there are some great foreign films. Maybe watch it personally with your kids?
If you like heists, there is a tv show you should try: "Leverage" - basically a modern team of thieves--turn-Robin Hoods. Lots of fun and heist up on heist, up on heist!
I love Ocean’s 11 so much! I got my mom to watch it a few years ago and she finally understood why I like it. If you ever watch the movie The Intern, there is a scene where they go on a “mission” and one of them comments how it’s like Ocean’s 11 and the music playing over the scene is music from this movie. Such a fun little moment.
I love how excited you get but this is a REMAKE of a Frank SInitra (he was Danny Ocean) film from the 60s and that cast was fun too. Maybe IF u ha more than 3 channels u would know.
I saw you reacted to this, so I watched the movie (after wanting to for a while anyway) just so I could enjoy watching it with you a second time! Haha! Thanks for expanding my movie collection!
I'm not a big fan of heist movies, to be honest, but I really enjoyed this franchise because of the witty dialogue and the clever twists and the tongue-in-cheek storytelling!!
12:00 - I was in Las Vegas once and stayed on Freemont, Golden Nugget. No complains, one you learn where to eat cheap. Hotel is nice, cheap, and close to major hotels that you visit like an amusement park or a museum. If going again, I would probably stay in Bellagio (I want those fountains in front of me!) or Venetian (beautiful style).
I'd like to add two more to the list Contraband and Leverage although the second one isn't a movie but a tv series it's a really great watch especially for a heist and the cast really mesh well like the Ocean's 11 cast
Actually, I've already reacted to Sneakers. Right now it's a patreon exclusive. You can check it out over there, but it will be edited in the future for UA-cam.
11:55 Where do you stay when you go to Vegas? My house! Stations (who own Red Rock Casino) opened a new place called Durango. See you there! :) Also your question about MGM, it's not being demolished. but the Mirage is closing next month, it will be re-done and become the new Hard Rock.
For another heist movie with an ensemble cast (some of which you might recognize), you should watch *Logan Lucky,* which I consider a blue-collar *Ocean's 11.* And just a reminder that you should continue your *Karate Kid* quest (to recognize one more).
The earliest sale on the list below (Vase with Fifteen Sunflowers by Vincent van Gogh) is from March 1987; with a price of £24.75 million (£87.9 million in 2023 currency). This sale tripled the previous record, and introduced a new era in top art sales. IIRC, the buyer was a rich Japanese man who wanted to flex.
Used to work at Hakkasan night club. Had to go to MGM Grand to the restricted area inside the club 5 days a week for morning meetings. Don’t know if they still do that though. Might hold meetings up in the TAO offices in Venetian now that they bought all the Hakkasan properties. Saw Illenium, Steve Aoki, NGHTMRE, Crankdat, DMX among others. Had the DJ booth tables a few times. Also met Muhammed Ali at Bellagio when I was a kid. When I moved there my roommate took me to Hyde at Bellagio before they closed it, his friends had a comp table.
Some forms of slang use rhyming to get the slang term. Basher (played by Don Cheadle) would be speaking Cockney, which is the most famous examples of rhyming slang However, the idea that Barney means trouble because of "Barney Rubble" is incorrect because the slang term goes back to the 19th century, while Barney Rubble wasn't invented until the middle of the 20th.
Trivia for "Ocean's Eleven" - - Released in 2001; directed by Steven Soderbergh; written by Ted Griffin; based on the 1960 film on the same name. - In the poker scene, when Brad Pitt's character Rusty tries to teach them, it's five TV actors doing cameos as themselves: Holly Marie Combs (Charmed), Topher Grace (That '70s Show), Joshua Jackson (Dawson's Creek), Barry Watson (Seventh Heaven), and Shane West (Once and Again). - Johnny Depp, who was Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean, was considered for the role of Linus Caldwell (the Matt Damon role), and real-life brothers Luke and Owen Wilson (the leads in Old School and Marley & Me) were in consideration for the mechanic twins, the Malloys; the Wilson brothers were forced to turn it down due to scheduling conflicts. Also turning down the role due to scheduling conflicts was Bruce Willis, originally cast as Danny Ocean. - The Bellagio let the crew tap into their security system to get real footage of the casino. Producer Jerry Weintraub was friends with the owner, Kirk Kerkorian. - Andy Garcia (Terry Benedict) had a hard time doing scenes with Carl Reiner (Saul), because Reiner was always cracking jokes and making Garcia laugh so hard. - The cast did gamble in between takes. Reportedly, George Clooney lost 25 hands of blackjack in a row. - There's a scene in the trailer where Danny Ocean asks the parole board how much many they make per year; it didn't make the final cut because Ocean would have been denied parole if he asked that. - Steven Soderbergh originally wanted to shoot the film in black-and-white.
The white boxer fighting during the blackout scene is Wladimir Klitschko, brother of Vitali Klitschko, who was also a boxer and is now the mayor of Kyiv, Ukraine. Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦
They stole half the $160m. in the vault, around $80m. Which would put it at 800 lbs. (363 kg) Still... 4 men pushing 4 carts, 200 lbs. (90 kg) on each cart would be no problem. 4 men casually carrying 200 lbs. (90 kg) 100 lbs. (45 kg) in each bag. You're right, That's never gonna happen. (Missed that part completely.) Well done.
Though you didn't mention it (maybe due to editing) but as Vasher is watching the casino demolition on TV, its happening right out his picture window. All he had to do was turn around. Regarding the EMP, you mention the book "One Second Later". The USSR had just such a plane and weapon. It would launched well ahead of time, mimicking the the orbit of LEO satellite. Then at the right time, it would explode in space, just above our atmosphere, creating a massive EMP. Most all civilian electronics would be taken out. However, the US Military, being aware of threat even from a normal nuke hit on a city, had hardened all their key systems thus it really wouldn't do much to our ability to respond to an attack.
Have you seen these other Brad Pitt movies????? 1.Burn After Reading 2.Bullet Train 3.12 Monkies 4.Snatch 5.Moneyball 6.Spy Game 7.The Mexican 8.Once Upon A Time In Hollywood 9.Mr & Mrs Smith 10.Sleepers 1996
The beginning and end scenes were shot at the Rahway State Prison in NJ. Then you see Danny calling his truant officer and you see the logo from Trump Plaza casino in Atlantic City in the background. Then Danny goes up the escalator there from the Boardwalk into that casino to meet Frank dealing Blackjack. The Trump Plaza has since been demolished. Trump also previously owned the Taj Mahal casino & hotel there which is now the Hard Rock and the Trump Marina casino which is now the Golden Nugget. FYI since Steve Wynn left Las Vegas, None of the casinos are owned by any individuals. They are all owned by Corporations.
I read One Second After. It's very good at portraying what would happen to people suffering the loss of power to all electronics after an EMP, but very bad at how they portray that initial nuclear blast. Given the height the nuclear blast would have to be to cause maximum loss of power (given the effects range and needed line of sight) it would take HUNDREDS of atmospheric nuclear blasts to effect the entire country. One or two wouldn't do it.
Plus, the author is kinda a very dyed in the wool paranoid. His next book "Day of Rage" was very far into the woods. The effects in One Second were good, but i dont know about the army and the UN.
I enjoy these Ocean movies though one reoccurring theme that bugs me is that every now and then they use cryptic language when talking about how they are going to do something. This is cool if there were actual context involved. Instead it seems like a bunch of random words and we as the audience are supposed to think that they are being smart. Hope you watch the other Ocean movies.
Dont know if tou ever watched snatch. But the black guy who does elec part was the same Actor with tyrone. It's arguably a better heist movie and it's the inspiration to this.
Thi is one of my favs. Also one of the few times where the remake was better - IMHO- than the original. Yeah I’m one of those that didn’t like the next two…
Does a US release of a Chinese movie that has English subtitles count for this channel? If so please watch a movie with Jackie Chan named Armour of God 2: Operation Condor. From 1991.. Also, Strawberry flavor, good sleep! Watch the movie to get that.. 😂
@@AwesomeUSMovies Thanks for responding. I love the movies you're reacting to. FYI when you're not actually recording the content(ie the intro) mic level seems fine it's just when you're recording the actual program. I hope this helps.

Need to watch The Italian Job in honour of Donald Sutherland. Another good heist movie 🍿
The original 1960 Ocean’s 11 with the Rat Pack (Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford, and Joey Bishop) plus a host of other top names of that era, is definitely worth watching.

Small appearance in American Pie as well!

“Mom and daughter working together!!” Nepotism is alive!! 😂😂
Only in Vegas can Mother and daughter work together in a strip club lol
The Barney Rubble Trouble is cockney rhyming slang. Barney Rubble rhymes with Trouble, so you can use Barney instead of trouble.
My question is this an actual cockney slang or just one created for the movie

One of my favorite books! There's several more in the series as well, "One Year After", etc..

Great reaction! Oceans 12 and 13 are just as good!
Love this movie. so many great actors and loved the setup and execution of the movie
Great reaction as always, ocean's 12 & 13 are also pretty decent. Allround good trilogy.
13 especially strong, but all enjoyable
11:55 Where do you stay when you go to Vegas? My house! Stations (who own Red Rock Casino) opened a new place called Durango. See you there! :)
Also your question about MGM, it's not being demolished. but the Mirage is closing next month, it will be re-done and become the new Hard Rock.
I totally want your shirt!!!!
This was fun, James. I hope you'll watch the other 2 movies in this trilogy: Ocean's 12 & Ocean's 13.
🌸 this is one of my all-time favorite movies
I hope you watch the other 2 movies next! My favorite is this one and ocean 13
For another heist movie with an ensemble cast (some of which you might recognize), you should watch *Logan Lucky,* which I consider a blue-collar *Ocean's 11.*
And just a reminder that you should continue your *Karate Kid* quest (to recognize one more).
The earliest sale on the list below (Vase with Fifteen Sunflowers by Vincent van Gogh) is from March 1987; with a price of £24.75 million (£87.9 million in 2023 currency). This sale tripled the previous record, and introduced a new era in top art sales.

Heist movies are fun! Heck, there's a movie literally named HEIST that's pretty good.
MGM Grand is still here, they’re currently in the process of tearing down the Tropicana which is right across the street from it, though.
Used to work at Hakkasan night club. Had to go to MGM Grand to the restricted area inside the club 5 days a week for morning meetings. Don’t know if they still do that though. Might hold meetings up in the TAO offices in Venetian now that they bought all the Hakkasan properties. Saw Illenium, Steve Aoki, NGHTMRE, Crankdat, DMX among others. Had the DJ booth tables a few times. Also met Muhammed Ali at Bellagio when I was a kid. When I moved there my roommate took me to Hyde at Bellagio before they closed it, his friends had a comp table.
I think he means the old original MGM Grand. Yes, that one was demolished, the new one is still there.

I have read 1 second after, it sent me down a rabbit hole of research. It's accurate, they should make a decent movie true to the book.
Yeah it's scary accurate... dark thoughts on that one.
I like this whole series including the one w/ Sandra Bullock &the women. Thx for your reaction. PS I like that shirt you're wearing.
Nice shirt, I'm a Bamboo Cay fan too!

Trivia for "Ocean's Eleven" -
- Released in 2001; directed by Steven Soderbergh; written by Ted Griffin; based on the 1960 film on the same name.
- In the poker scene, when Brad Pitt's character Rusty tries to teach them, it's five TV actors doing cameos as themselves: Holly Marie Combs (Charmed), Topher Grace (That '70s Show), Joshua Jackson (Dawson's Creek), Barry Watson (Seventh Heaven), and Shane West (Once and Again).
- Johnny Depp, who was Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean, was considered for the role of Linus Caldwell (the Matt Damon role), and real-life brothers Luke and Owen Wilson (the leads in Old School and Marley & Me) were in consideration for the mechanic twins, the Malloys; the Wilson brothers were forced to turn it down due to scheduling conflicts. Also turning down the role due to scheduling conflicts was Bruce Willis, originally cast as Danny Ocean.
- The Bellagio let the crew tap into their security system to get real footage of the casino. Producer Jerry Weintraub was friends with the owner, Kirk Kerkorian.
- Andy Garcia (Terry Benedict) had a hard time doing scenes with Carl Reiner (Saul), because Reiner was always cracking jokes and making Garcia laugh so hard.
- The cast did gamble in between takes. Reportedly, George Clooney lost 25 hands of blackjack in a row.
- There's a scene in the trailer where Danny Ocean asks the parole board how much many they make per year; it didn't make the final cut because Ocean would have been denied parole if he asked that.

$150M in all $100 bills would weigh around 1,500 lbs. To me that was the least believable part of the movie and it's one of my all time favorites.
They stole half the $160m. in the vault, around $80m. Which would put it at 800 lbs. (363 kg) Still... 4 men pushing 4 carts, 200 lbs. (90 kg) on each cart would be no problem. 4 men casually carrying 200 lbs. (90 kg) 100 lbs. (45 kg) in each bag. You're right, That's never gonna happen. (Missed that part completely.) Well done.

Happy to say that the next two Ocean movies are both really good, though I think third one is better than second. But second is so much fun!

Get thru Oceans 12, but Oceans 13...is the apology for 12...😂...
Ted Nugent (75) is an American rock guitarist and songwriter, maybe you've heard some of his songs, like "Cat scratch fever".
TOWER HEIST should be the next film. Ben Stiller, Eddie Murphy, Casey Affleck, Matthew Broderick...
A surprisingly funny (and quality) movie!
Only been once and stayed at the mandalay bay. 2 of my friends where fighting there.
Just in time for this fun movie today..love ya.
I hope you watch 12, 13 and 8! They're all amazing :)
Would love to have more book recommendations to go with the movie! 😀 📽️ 🍿 📚
I did a live Q&A a few weeks ago. I did a whole section on what books I've been reading. You should check it out.
You know Elliott Gould from Friends? You should watch M*A*S*H from 1970.
Love the shirt James
Q - "Is that it?"
A - "Ocean's Twelve"
"Ocean's Thirteen"
Amazing cast, script,
story, score, and cinemetography..
Oceans 12 is ok..
But 13:seals the deal!
My book I kept trying to send you and getting sent back is about Vegas. I was a bartender on the strip for 18 years
I read One Second After. It's very good at portraying what would happen to people suffering the loss of power to all electronics after an EMP, but very bad at how they portray that initial nuclear blast. Given the height the nuclear blast would have to be to cause maximum loss of power (given the effects range and needed line of sight) it would take HUNDREDS of atmospheric nuclear blasts to effect the entire country. One or two wouldn't do it.
Plus, the author is kinda a very dyed in the wool paranoid. His next book "Day of Rage" was very far into the woods. The effects in One Second were good, but i dont know about the army and the UN.
🌸 hi, James!
HA! Pretty woman you mean gorgeous woman still to this day. I ❤ me some Julia Roberts
I enjoy these Ocean movies though one reoccurring theme that bugs me is that every now and then they use cryptic language when talking about how they are going to do something. This is cool if there were actual context involved. Instead it seems like a bunch of random words and we as the audience are supposed to think that they are being smart.
Hope you watch the other Ocean movies.
Talking about a book to us while 'watching' a movie? Can we get more of that paid for on Patreon? 😂
This is such a fun caper movie.
Dont know if tou ever watched snatch. But the black guy who does elec part was the same Actor with tyrone. It's arguably a better heist movie and it's the inspiration to this.
James knows what swag is but doesn’t know who Ted Nugent is !!!😂😂
Your editor likes to the duck quack for curse words. The $ or cha ching hasn't been used in editing. Just a suggestion for movies about a heist.
Oceans 12 is decent but 13 is my second favorite in trilogy
The sequel oceans 12 was lackluster in my opinion but oceans 13(2009) I thought was an excellent return to form and recommened
SEE the one from 1960s with the RAT PACK in it....
"I don't know who Ted Nugent is." Consider yourself lucky.
Thi is one of my favs. Also one of the few times where the remake was better - IMHO- than the original. Yeah I’m one of those that didn’t like the next two…
Does a US release of a Chinese movie that has English subtitles count for this channel? If so please watch a movie with Jackie Chan named Armour of God 2: Operation Condor. From 1991..
Also, Strawberry flavor, good sleep! Watch the movie to get that.. 😂
Ocean 12 is very good, but not quite as good, though I enjoyed it. 13 is even better than 11.
Great ensemble cast movie!
17:55 - I do not understand THAT art. Ugly collections of shapes that makes you want to look away, quickly.
Ocean’s 12 is 🗑️
I find this movie far superior to the original.
And yet it's only okayish.
Love this!
U said u don’t like boxing.
React to Mike Tyson baddest man on the planet
His life is as good as any action movie
Your mic is way too loud
I'll work on it thanks
@@AwesomeUSMovies Thanks for responding. I love the movies you're reacting to.
FYI when you're not actually recording the content(ie the intro) mic level seems fine it's just when you're recording the actual program. I hope this helps.
I like all the ocean's movies, except for ocean's 8.
First!

This movie is fantastic and still holds up perfectly after 23 years. So shut the fuck up and enjoy the movie.
