oceans 11
Oceans' Eleven was made in 1960. The major stars in the movie were Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., Dean Martin, Peter Lawford, Richard Conte, and Caesar Romero. This was a great movie and was good at reflecting it's time, the 50's and early 60's. Forty one years later, this movie is remade. The major stars in the new film were George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Andy Garcia, Matt Damon, and Bernie Mac. This Movie was also great and also was an excellent reflection of it's time, the new millennium. There are many differences and similarities between the two movies, yet it is still hard for me to say which one I like better. Both movies had a common theme. A group of very smart men get a way with crime. Both movies have guys in suits that are good talkers, good with the ladies, and are very smart and cunning. One main difference in the theme is that in the first one a group of war heroes use there training for crime. Throughout the movie, they refer to the heist as a mission, they move as if they are always covering each other's backs, and they even refer the city as the combat zone. The army trains our men to have skills that they can abuse after the war. That was the message the first movie was trying to relay.
Every time I saw Brad Pitt doing a lot of thinking, he was eating something. The audience really got to know each character and watch how they were all gathered up. I did not notice anything in either movie that had to do with lighting. (EXEPT I'M NOT A CRIMINAL) There are distinct differences in the plot, the cinematography, the acting, the theme, and even the tone. The Second movie was made in a completely different era. I thought this was very well executed. The first one starts out with awesome character developments. I thought theses two movies were equally entertaining. Every thing was just normal lighting. They all knew each other before hand in the first one, where as in the second, only a few knew each other. They all walk away without a trace and with all the money. They were always in nice suits and were always well mannered. I like to think of myself as cool and slick. The rat pack was a group of cool guys and all they did was play themselves.
