Movie Reviews of The Italian Job [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: Seriously... "It's Not the Money!"
Summary: 4 Stars

If the Actors and Crew had as much fun making this film, as I had watching this film, they may have done it for free.

This film is seriously serious, as well as seriously funny and in both cases, they are seriously wonderful. There is a fortune in gold ingots stolen once, stolen twice and on it's way to a third (I'm sure the Russians weren't happy with their payoff).

The Actors play professional master theives who lost the fortune once, along with the death of the gang's mastermind. The rest of the gang, plus the victims daughter, join forces to take back their stolen bounty and seek revenge for the murder of thier beloved leader by an ex-gang member.

The final chase scenes are spectacular, but you don't have to wait till then. You can certainly start enjoying this film from the absolute start.

Summary of The Italian Job [Blu-ray]

The plan was flawless. The execution was perfect. Charlie Croker pulled off the crime of a lifetime. The one thing that, he didn't plan on was being double-crossed. Now he wants more than the job's payoff...he wants payback. Mark Wahlberg is electrifying as Croker in this "fast and furious action-adventure."* Along with a drop-dead gorgeous safecracker (Charlize Theron), Croker and his team take off to re-steal the loot and end up in a pulse-pounding, pedal-to-the-metal chase that careens up, down, above and below the streets of Los Angeles. With an ensemble all-star cast that also includes Edward Norton, Seth Green, Jason Statham, Mos Def, Franky G and Donald Sutherland, The Italian Job is "Hot!"
Though it bears little resemblance to the original 1969 thriller starring Michael Caine, the 2003 remake of The Italian Job stands on its own as a caper comedy that's well above average. The title's a misnomer--this time it's actually a Los Angeles job--but the action's just as exciting as it propels a breezy tale of honor and dishonor among competing thieves. Inheriting Caine's role as ace heist-planner Charlie Croker, Mark Wahlberg plays straight-man to a well-cast team of accomplices, including Mos Def, Jason Statham, and scene-stealer Seth Green in a variation of the role originally played by Noel Coward. As the daughter of Croker's ill-fated mentor (Donald Sutherland), Charlize Theron is recruited to double-cross a double-crosser (Edward Norton in oily villain mode), and once again, speedily versatile Mini Coopers play a pivotal role in director F. Gary Gray's exhilarating car-chase climax. It's perhaps the greatest product placement in movie history, and just as fun the second time around. --Jeff Shannon
