Amazon.co.uk Review Leave it to the Chairman of the Board to rope in a great director for the first Rat Pack movie, IOcean's Eleven/I. Lewis Milestone (IAll Quiet on the Western Front/I) did indeed direct this 1960 caper movie starring Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr, Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop; but the results now seem like more of a historical artefact than a good piece of entertainment. The tone of the film is curiously serious--much more so than Steven Soderbergh's fluffy 2002 remake--one somehow expected that the Rat Pack would have made a more buoyant first picture. But it is something to see these guys together, if only for reasons of nostalgia.--ITom Keogh, Amazon.com/I

Yep,it's purely a vehicle for the Rat-Pack,a little drawn out,but if you're a fan of Sinatra and the boys,then this is a must.The new version has been described as slick and sexy,well,these guys CREATED the mould.Filmed in the days when men were men,and the stars weren't film actors but true movie stars (there's a difference),this film oozes class and style which was not manufactured or created to do so.Sure,it's not p.c,slightly chauvanistic,and the plot is lacking slightly,but just sit back and watch the guys do what they do best naturally.For me,one of the film's highlights is Dean Martin crooning 'aint that a kick in the head'.
I wish I could give it 5. February 17, 2003 10 out of 17 found this review helpful
If any movie deserves 5 stars it's this one but it just doesn't reach it. A Very good film with a good cast but the newer version just has the edge on it. What I loved about this movie was that it was different from the 2001 version. It was not as centred on Danny Ocean which is definately a good thing. I did however miss Eliot Gould, A fantastic Actor who I am glad got in on the new movie. This film has a slightly better plot line and a greater sense of why the people did this and why they all wanted to. The film also does not end in the Hero wins his girl fasion which is nice but it does make a nice change. What makes thn new one better is that it runs so smoothly and it has you fooled till the last second.brBuy both and buy them now they are both fantastic movies and are worth every penny.
The Rat Pack and a timewarp of the 1960s and Las Vegas March 10, 2002 10 out of 15 found this review helpful
Originally set up by Sinatra to provide his Rat Pack with a wild time whilst working in Vegas, most of thisa file was shot in one Take scenes as Sinatra and Co.wanted to get back to the tables.pA must see if you you plan to buy the new George Clooney version of the same film (and almost the same story), as the comparisons with the original heist on the Flamingo, the Desrt Inn, The Sands etc, with the fantastic Bellagio, MGM Grand etc is interesting.pSee both movies, and visit Las Vegas. All are a must!!!
I hate to admit it but the remake is much better May 26, 2009 1972, male, civil servant, married, 2 kids (Brussels, Belgium) It has its moments, but overall it is lousy. It also lacks coherence - the pace is uneven and the plot seems rather accidental.
