Director Steven Soderbergh updates the '60s "Rat Pack" classic Ocean's 11 into a modern day star-studded caper. Warner has done an excellent job on this 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer. Sporting sharp colors, detailed black levels, and solid fleshtones, this picture looks very clean without nary an imperfection to be found. The audio is presented in Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround in English and French and is a very solid mix. This soundtrack features many instances of directional sound usage in both the front and rear speakers. All aspects of the dialogue, effects, and music are free of any excessive distortion or hiss. Also included on this disc are subtitles in English, French, and Spanish. Ocean's 11 features a nice load of special features, even if they are a tad meager by today's blockbuster DVD standards. First up there are two commentary tracks, the first by director Steven Soderbergh and screenwriter Ted Griffin and a second by actors Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, and Andy Garcia. Both of these tracks are fun and engaging with the second track by the actors leaning more towards entertaining while the first track tends to be much more on the technical side. "The Making of Ocean's 11" is a 15-minute featurette that includes interviews with many of the cast and crew members who worked on the film. This is a typically bland promotional short that doesn't give much insight into the making of the film. "The Look of the Con" is a ten-minute featurette that includes interviews with costume designer Jeffrey Kurland and a few sketches of the wardrobes and costumes. Finally there are a few short resumes on the cast and crew, a theatrical trailer, and two teaser trailers for the film.
