Summary: You cant not like it!
Review: Okay.... its hard to write about such a brilliant film without feeling silly. Sometimes the sheer power of the movie says enough. This is one of those movies. Every scene is done so well, every detail is thought out so well, every character is performed so well... you cant say anything bad about it. Everytime I show this movie to a friend they say the same things. They say it because they too are amazed. The plot, the cars -minis and alfas-(the brits vs. italia), the actors, the raw energy, everything! is perfect. A must have! I cant believe you dont already :P

Summary: The Best Movie of All Time!
Review: I saw this movie for the first time in a Dickensian home in Cardiff, Wales, and it has never left my mind. Until recently I had believed that in fact this fil was a figment of my imagination and all the details were jumbled.I first remembered that Michael Caine was in it and then it was just a matter of time. I believed it was all about Monaco and then I heard Mr. Caine interviewed and he mentioned this film. I ordered it here. I watched it and thirty years after it was filmed its even more stylish, hip, sexy, and dashing than it was even ten years ago. Buy it. Own it. Don't wait for serendipity. It needs to be yours.

Summary: Why can't all movies be like this?
Review: This is one of the finest heist films ever committed to celluloid. This is one of the finest ensemble performances assembled. This is, without question, one of the finest films of its genre. Michael Caine is, as always, smooth and calculating and funny in his subtle, English way. The heist and the set up to the heist are handled brilliantly. I am a longtime fan of all heist films and this has to be, alongside "The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3", the best. From Caine's dead associate talking to him from beyond the grave on reels of black and white film...outlining the whole heist....to the flawless execution of the plan, the pure excitement of the chase scene (The BEST CAR CHASE SCENE EVER)and the twists and turns and even the theme song....everything is pure magnificence. Oh man. Get this movie. Love this movie. Cherish this movie and then watch it again and again. Never before have you seen the things you'll see in this movie. NEVER. I fear that any review I give will be more convoluted and uninforming than actually watching this movie. So that is what you must do. I guarantee you will be grinning from ear to ear and dancing that happy dance you dance when you discover a film as good as this one.... thank your lucky stars...

Summary: The Italian Job
Review: The Italian Job The classic which made minis popular, this excellent film benefits from an enjoyable plot and brilliantly hilarious characters, brought to life by an accomplished, Brit-led, cast, headed by Michael Cane. If I had to make a criticism it would be the lack of musical accompaniment during the climax of the film, making the gripping activities appear somewhat everyday. But the films' ability to create intelligent humour in a wholly believable situation means that it is a highly enjoyable film, well deserving of its classic status. 8 out of 10.

Summary: An out and out all time fave.
Review: It sounds trite to say 'it's an all time fave', but it's true. Very few of the 99 minutes are wasted, the plot perky, the setting, London in the late 60's, by mere definition is FAB. Michael Caine is brilliant in the lead, and when he's on, there are few better. Both Noel Coward and Benny Hill (yes, kids, Benny Hill) are just about as funny as is humanly possible. Aside from Alfred Molina in Boogie Nights I can't think of more enjoying supporting (limited) roles in film. And who doesn't like a good caper movie? The crooks a collection of misfits who bungle most every facet of the heist? Grab the microwave popcorn, the dill pickles and sit back. You're in for a treat with this one.

Summary: Caine Crime Caper Classic
Review: I grew up with The Italian Job in the UK. It was one of those films the BBC used to show all the time. My friends and I have been watching the video for years - we put it on whenever a boozed-up night of shouting out the classic lines is required, e.g. "He was put away for doing something disgusting with a net." Just typing it in makes me laugh, see the film and you'll see what I mean. Add to that a bizarre Mini car chase, a singalong Cockney soundtrack and an authentic swinging London 60s setting and it's a must-see.

Summary: Humorous Crime Film with Delightful Chase Sequence
Review: Humerous crime movie with Michael Caine as the master thief, stealing a fortune of gold mint in Turin, Italy, and escaping with the prize in an entertaining chase sequence featuring souped-up Mini-Cooper autos. Fantastic stunts, with the little cars driven through plazas and tunnels, and leaping across some impressive obstacles to avoid the massive traffic jam created by Caine's crew as a diversion. Almost makes any viewer to rush out and purchase a Mini-Cooper. Overall an entertaining show with good characters, great stunts and a unique storyline.

Summary: BRILLIANT
Review: Surely one of the finest films ever made. Michael Caine in his best London lad role. Plus the line "you were only supposed to blow the bleedin' doors off" spawns a whole host of blow job related gags.......

Summary: The finest film ever made
Review: The Italian Job is the finest film ever made, without a shadow of a doubt. Usually, I agree with Leonard Maltin, but sometimes he's way off the scale and he most certainly is in this case. Okay, you might feel that the characterisation is poor - but they're meant to be stereotypes. This film was ironic way before Kevin Williamson and his kind were even born. It's worth knowing that the UK censors in 1968 would not allow any film to be released which made it appear that crime pays so the ending was tied to that one condition. If you only buy one video from amazon ever (and that would not be good - they have a huge range of fine quality films - might i personally recommend The Quiet Man, for instance?) make it this one.
