Product Description:
A british crook robs gold ingots in italy by having a computer expert cause a traffic jam. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 01/25/2005 Starring: Michael Caine Tony Beckley Run time: 100 minutes Rating: G Director: Peter Collinson

Amazon.com essential video:
Internal countercasting is a big plus in this caper comedy: where else are you going to find Benny Hill and Michael Caine in the same movie? Peter Collinson directs those two as well as Noel Coward, Raf Vallone, Rossano Brazzi, and Irene Handl in a story about the effort to steal gold bullion from the town of Turin. Screenwriter Troy Kennedy Martin eschews heist film tradition by placing more emphasis on the gang's getaway than on the complex robbery itself. The film's main claim to comic fame is a wild chase scene set against an enormous traffic jam. The rest of the movie is less memorable, but that extended action sequence is well worth the wait. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent copy
The Italian Job, Special Collector's Edition, brings a high quality copy of the 1969 classic.
Excellent sound and image. Unfortunately without spanish subtitles.
A must for car lovers. Not just Minis but a lot of Alfa Romeos, Lamborghinis, Jaguars, Dino Fiats and Aston Martins.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Terrible! Get the remake with Mark Wahlberg
I LUV the remake of this flick, and decided to get the original. After all, most of the time, I like the original more than the remake. Boy, was I wrong. This movie was TERRIBLE! The acting was fine, but it's totally dated in script and actions of characters. And it was a slow mover. Want to see it? Get the remake with Mark Wahlberg.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not The Best But Worth A Look
I saw the 2003 remake of The Italian Job before I saw the 1969 version. The chief difference between the films is that the first film is a comedy while the second is meant as an action-drama. The first Italian Job is filled with a large number of gang members about whom we know nothing in the film concentrating on the main players - Michael Caine and Noel Coward. With the 2003 version we get to know each team member and their specialty and a lot of the fun are the different likes/dislikes Charlie's ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Italian Job
The Italian Job Let's face it, this movie and this version of it with Michael Caine and Noel Coward is a must for all MINI Cooper owners. It fulfills all the fantasies we enjoy about our grand little cars. The movie is a great romp and never pauses with its cast of wonderful unbelievable characters. Great fun from start to finish.
The quality of the DVD itself is excellent. Color, sound and visual detail are outstanding
