Beautifully shot by Soderbergh himself ('Peter Andrews'), with the same rich oranges and blues as Out of Sight, which it resembles also in funky, cool way down to Stephen Mirrione's groovy cutting (though even he is not of course Anne Coates).
Rather disappointingly the team, led by Clooney and Pitt, don't appear to need any women, and instead comprises Matt Damon, Elliott Gould, Carl Reiner, Casey Affleck (brother of), Scott Caan (son of), Berni Mac and the appallingly bad cockney accent of Don Cheadle. Andy Garcia is far too colourless to be attractive to Julia Roberts - part should have been played by Mark Strong.
Good, entertaining and ingenious script by Ted Griffin, though the whole thing is all a bit pleased with itself.
