Rating: Summary: A True Must See! Review: I am so bummed I did not get to see this movie while it was in the theater. It must have been competing with a huge film cause it did not get the hype it deserves! I loved it!
Rating: Summary: A job you don't get to do every day Review: The italian Job is an awesome, funny, entertaining and commotional movie!
Rating: Summary: Most Excellent Review: GREAT film. Tremendous Actors and a great flowing story. Plenty of twists and action. Even better than Ocean's Eleven.
Rating: Summary: The Italian Slob! Review: Well I have to say that this isn't a very orginal plot. The stroy is bland, vapid, and cliche. The acting is good, but we've seen this story before. I really just didn't enjoy this as many people have. The direction is great, and the shooting locations are perfect. Believe me the stunts in this movie is cool, and the ending is rather entertaining, but overall there's a better movie out there waiting for you to watch it.
Rating: Summary: Why all the rave reviews? Review: This movie is ok, but there isn't really anything spectacular about it. The plot and performances are mediocre, and it comes off without any real suspense. The boat chase and the coopers provide the only excitement. The rest of the movie puts a re-tread on popular "caper movie" devices, all of which have been better used in other films. If you want live-action stunts, an exciting story, good acting, suspense, and above all, white-knuckle car chases, check out Ronin with Robert Deniro. It will become immediately apparent that this movie falls short.
Rating: Summary: The Italian Oceans Eleven Thomas Crown Job Review: Sure this movie may have borrowed some technigues used elsewhere but it comes together as a caper adventure film unlike any others. Wahlberg and Norton are fantastic and the rest of the supporting cast are super. I was disappointed that Donald Sutherland's role was so brief, but even so he is quite effective. The story line of revenge is only marginally contrived but the director brings us around to his way of thinking. He sets us right with the incredible precision heist mechanics and the wonderful chase scenes and of course the cute Mini Coopers. Any fan of good remakes of older heist movies with above average acting like "Oceans Eleven" and "The Thomas Crown Affair" should love it. The DVD quality is unsurpassed and all the extras including a making of documentary and the Mini Cooper stunts make it well worth owning.
Rating: Summary: Sorry excuse for a movie Review: Totally predictable plot, very undeveloped characters, bad acting, despite good actors (I love Ed Norton) and in addition shameless advertisement of mini cooper cars. Forced myself to finish - very boring. I understand that original movie was much better (didn't see one myself).
Rating: Summary: My Favorite Movie of the Year! Review: I loved this movie!! It was fun, not complicated and full of action. It was funny, and very entertaining. Watch this movie if you want some fun, not if you want a deep thinker movie. Honestly, I hate Mark Whalberg, but the movie's great. I love Seth Green. You go, Napster!
Rating: Summary: fun Review: when i watched this i didn't know what to expect. well i liked it. it was a cool movie. seth green , charlize theron , mos def , and edward norton all had great performances. it was supposed to be fun. it excelled on that part.
Rating: Summary: This is The recipe... Review: There's the aw-shucks black guy who is an explosives expert; there's the nerd who can't get laid but can hack the IRS; there's the sexy dope who knows how to drive race cars; there's the salty dog who teaches the kids the ropes; there's the all-American good-lookin' boy that shoots a mean hoop; there's the super sexy chick who had to one day decide, "Should I be a supermodel or a safecracker? I know! A safecracker!" There's cutesy little mini-coopers, all hot-rodded up; there's the insipid temptation to compare it unfavorably "to the original!" And then there's Ed Norton. All that's missing is a talking monkey. Or a cute robot. Or a jive-talkin' Genie.
