| non-stop action film
I enjoyed the movie very much. Everything in The Italian Job is simple. An explosive guy, a safe-cracker, a computer genius, a wheel-man and a man with a spectacular plan of stealing 35 million without using a gun. This film is entertaining although it has no central idea. It is a non-stop movie with lots of actions. All the stunt work is gorgeous. From the speedboat chase in Venice at the beginning to the chase on the busy roads in Los Angeles involving three mini coopers and even a helicopter. The best boast chase I have ever seen. I like the mini coopers. The expert thieves used mini coopers for the getaway cars. The chase between the mini coopers and the motor-bikes is amazing. They chased underground. I can say there was not a moment I was bored. Mark Wahlberg (Charlie Croker), Charlize Theron (Stella Bridger), Donald Sutherland (John Bridger), Jason Statham (Handsome Rob), Seth Green (Lyle), Mos Def (Left Ear) and Edwin Norton (Steve) really did a good job. I like the actors in this film. I have seen a lot of heist movie but The Italian Job& is one of my favourites. A great Hollywood action movie without a drop of blood. After all, I do love this kind of movie.

Trivia

32 MINI Coopers were used throughout the shooting.

Quotes

Stella: Hello.
John Bridger: Hello, sweetie.
Stella: Daddy, it's early.

Goofs

The crew sets off a charge and the armored truck falls through Hollywood Blvd directly into the subway tunnel. In reality, the subway tunnels underneath Los Angeles are at least 6 stories underground. That means it would have to travel through at least 60 feet of reinforced concrete, soil, and more reinforced concrete before it would land on the station floor.

Crazy Credits

At the very end of the credits, the sound of coins falling and tinkling can be heard.

Alternate Versions

For the US television version, Steve's line "What the fuck happened to my truck?" has been replaced with alternate footage of him saying "What happened to my truck?". It is not an overdub; it is a complete replacement.
