The Italian Job is
a blast from start to finish, filled with thrilling chase scenes,
clever robbery plans, and funny characters at beautiful locations
around the world.
What really captured my attention was
the souped-up little British Mini Cooper cars. They were as big
as hits as any of the stars. (I want one!)
This movie understands what makes a picture
work and does not overpopulate it with too many characters and
twists, and throws a little something for everyone.
Watching this film was a heck of a lot
of fun. |
The Italian Job
is a formula heist film, full of double revenge, full of double
crosses, and a few triple crosses as well.
As remakes go, this one is better than
the original, and although the Mini Cooper sequence runs into
maximum time on screen, it's still a well-executed, pretty entertaining
movie that is well worth seeing. |
The Italian Job
is a fascinating, fresh fun ride. It's full of double crosses,
and wild getaway stunts--a fast and furious action adventure
film.
The picture isn't quite a masterpiece about
a team of safecrackers and con artists, but it gets the job done
very well for a caper/heist movie. |
