54 free Ocean's Eleven trivia questions with answers. Ocean's Eleven is the heist movie everyone else gets measured against, and it has a whole family around it. This quiz covers the 2001 Soderbergh film in detail: the three casinos, the vault, the pinch, the fake SWAT team, the missing Bellagio logo, the poker-lesson cameos and the casting near-misses from Mark Wahlberg to the Wilson brothers. It then widens out to the 1960 Rat Pack original with Sinatra and five casinos on New Year's Eve, Ocean's Twelve with the Night Fox and the Fabergé egg, Ocean's Thirteen with Al Pacino's Willy Bank and the Channel Tunnel drill, Ocean's 8 with Debbie Ocean at the Met Gala, and the prequel and sequel now in the works. Easy questions for anyone who has seen the films once, hard ones for the people who can quote the Bruiser scene. Every answer was checked against the Wikipedia articles on the films and the franchise, and each question shows the sentence that supports it once you answer. Free, no signup.
