The title is a bit misleading, since the current job takes place in LA, but it was spurred by "The Italian Job". Mark Walhburg does a great job as Charlie Croker, out to avenge the death of his mentor (played by Donald Sutherland). Along with him is a great team and the dead man's daughter. This was a great movie, and I'm sure the team wasn't motivated by the thirty million dollars stolen.

Anyone who likes mini-coopers. Shoot, those suckers are SMALL! It's also a good action piece, very well done.

The fast driving and the great planning. I was very impressed by the way the Italian Job was pulled off. Very cool.

See the original. I didn't even know this was based on an older movie, but I should have guessed. Seems like all the newer movies are.

Hyped up and excited. I laughed all through it and the daring and ingenuity.

Did a fantastic job of supporting one another.

It is really fun to watch. Tons of action and adventure, a great crime twist, and super-smart criminals!

Well, it does sort of condone crime by making the heros career criminals.
