Seeing Clooney in this kind of a film was definitely entertaining.

The film sees Clooney give one of his most inspired performances ever, and the movie itself is a rewarding watch.

Ocean’s Eleven

The Ocean’s films are some of the most witty and entertaining heist films ever made, and in the trilogy, the first is still the best. Focusing on a group of thieves that stage a heist to steal money from a casino owner, Ocean’s Eleven is made all the more entertaining by its all-star cast that’s lead by Clooney’s effortless charm. George Clooney Reveals the Famous People Who Denied Offers for Ocean’s Eleven and Even Told Them to ‘F*** Right Off’.
