after watching the remake i had to see this. The cinematography is breathtaking and the cars make you want to cry when they crash. and for being a british film it is amazing
Movie Review: Italian Job - Original
Summary: 3 Stars
It was interesting. The remake is definitely more exciting. It is different than the remake and the ending keeps you hanging.Movie Review: What?!?
Summary: 2 Stars
Maybe I just don't get it but this movie was choppy and difficult to follow. And the ending was quite a let-down. The remake (2003-4?) was much much better.
Get the original Ocean's 11 (with the Rat Pack) instead!
Movie Review: The best British film ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
A wonderful British caper, Michael Caine at his best and a funny, if not too short appearance by Benny Hill. A wonderful Quincy Jones music score but the stars of this film are the Minis. Well worth seeing proving the original is always the best. Movie Review: Enjoyable, mesmerizing and genial picture!
Summary: 5 Stars
Following the essential canons of the golden ages of the British comedy in the Fifties, this light thriller is masked with a set of memorable vignettes and suggestive flashes of acidic humor a la English way; where two brilliant minds (each one in its field) are planning to rob four millions $ in pure gold, thanks to the biggest traffic jam that Turin ever knew thanks to the collapse of the breakthrough of the computation system that rules the traffic signals.
There is big difference between this first op. and the remake of 2003. On one hand, we have a sinister challenge to a respectable mob' s executives who made disappear to the pioneer of the idea; so it's not a simple match; the revenge spirit underlies. On the other hand, the leading acting of Michael Caine (one of his best performances); the spectacular locations, the brilliant chases and the disturbing and ironic finale that to my mind is a very smart homage to "Wages of fear."
Under any circumstance you should not miss this singular and amusing film.
