Plot: The plan was flawless...the job was executed perfectly...the escape was clean. The only threat mastermind thief Charlie Croker never saw coming was from a member of his own crew. After pulling off an ...( read more read more... )amazing gold bullion heist from a heavily guarded palazzo in Venice, Italy, Charlie and his gang -- inside man Steve, computer genius Lyle, wheelman Handsome Rob, explosives expert Left-Ear and veteran safecracker John Bridger -- can't believe it when one of them turns out to be a double-crosser. Now the job isn't about the payoff, it's about payback! Enter Stella, a beautiful nerves-of-steel safecracker, who joins Charlie and his former gang when they follow the backstabber to California, where they plan to re-steal the gold by tapping into Los Angeles' traffic control system, manipulating signals and creating one of the biggest traffic jams in L.A. history!

    One point for Edward Norton, one for Charlize Theron, one for the jokes of Mos Def and Seth Green and one for the plans of the team.

    Truely awsome!! I love this movie so much that I think it is the reason I fell in love with Mini Cooper.
    It has an amazing story with great actors. Very captivating to the very end.
    An intelligent movie! Definitely one of my all time favourite!

    I was captivated from the first to the last second, and that rarely happens to me. Charlize Theron is perfect, and so is the story.

    Indeed a very interesting and amusing movie. It shows that eventually truth and honesty win and everyone gets what s/he deserved. I know it almost by heart. My favourite quote is: "Trust ever
    yone, just don't trust a devil inside them." It's really worth seeng.

    Was a realy good action movie, I'm a bit disapointed to find Norton was the bady. But he played it pretty well. Mark played his lead role great, as usual

    From the gitgo, this is an excellent movie. There were spots where it appeared to have been cut, but were done smoothly. I am always amazed at the amount of ammo that gets shot off in some of these films with so few casualties. But, it is done well. Highly recommended to all action fans. Leaves you wanting the sequel.

    Superb movie...the kind you watch over and over. Lots and lots of action with a great unexpected twist at the end. Wahlberg doesn't have to act, and Mos Def is comical. Of course, I can't stand Norton, though he's a great actor. Love the Minis!!!! Get ready for a while ride.

    Crime thriller set in Italy and Los Angeles pits hacker crackerjack bad guys against everyone in this thriller. Not a bad movie actually. Has one of the coolest chase scenes ever, thanks to it being in little mini coopers. (Topped in Bourne Ultimadum). Somehow the bad guys hack into the LA traffic system, which itself would be a logistical nightmare to do. Still, fun flick. Remake of a Britism movie. (Not viewed).

    I will say this, as an individual film, because it isn't really like The Italian Job except for the Mini's, it is a good film. I was disappointed somewhat as they made references to the original film as well as the main character having the same name. A high point would be Charlize Theron in the bra scene and Seth Green as he is brilliant

    Ocean's 11 anyone? Just like that movie, this was also a remake of an earlier film, with a surprisingly similar plot line. Aside from that, this was an enjoyable ride of a movie.

    A highly entertaining heist movie.

    Even though it was a remake of the 1968 original of the same name, it should have been called The L.A Job as most of the film takes place in Los Angeles.

    All the actors were great, I esp. loved Jason Statham as Handsome Rob and Seth Green as Lyle aka The Napster. I don't think the role of Steve was made for Ed Norton but then again, he was forced to participate in the movie because of a contract with Paramount, he was great as the bad guy nevertheless.

    Also as many people on Flixster have already mentioned already, I LOVE the Mini Cooper's too!

    It was good but there wa just a little something missing. Where was the good steamy love scene that usually occurs in a bank plotted robbery?

    FYI~~ The Brazilian Job MIGHT be coming out in 2009. They don't even have a script yet....

    IF it does come out, I highly doubt it will be as The Italian Job (2001).

    This film was MUCH better than the original Italian Job starring Micheal Caine and Noel Coward...
