The Best Movie Franchises To Binge-Watch

Binge the "Ocean's" movies, and you'll come out cooler on the other side. And possibly prepared to commit some daring, stylish heists that we can't legally endorse.

If you want to include the original "Ocean's 11" from 1960, you're looking at a five-movie marathon, starting with the immortal Rat Pack and ending with a glamorous eight-woman heist during the Met Gala. This is a guaranteed good time, as the "Ocean's" films are pure entertainment and some of the best fun you can have at the movies. You're looking at a terrific cast too, one full of star power and inimitable charm. In addition to the Rat Pack, we have George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Julia Roberts, Don Cheadle, Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Anne Hathaway, Rihanna, Helena Bonham Carter ... and so many others that it's impossible to name them all. Just trust us that those numbers in the titles involve some of our favorite actors.

And the films are winners. As Diego Crespo at Audiences Everywhere describes the beloved 2001 caper, "[Steven] Soderbergh's remake is ... one of the quintessential heist movies of the modern age. An all-star cast utilizes expert chemistry that is so cool you could store perishables via close proximity to them." And while the sequels maybe can't technically improve on an already perfect execution of the heist movie, they add appeal of their own, from the meta playfulness of "Ocean's Twelve" to the cast change-up of "Ocean's 8."
