Product Description: Paramount The Italian Job - HD-DVD The plan was flawless.The execution was perfect. Charlie Croker pulled off the crime of a lifetime. The one thing that hedidn't plan on was being double-crossed. Now he wants more than the job's payoff... he wants payback. Mark Wahlberg is electrifying as Croker in this"fast and furious action-adventure." Along with adrop-dead gorgeous safecracker (Charlize Theron),Croker and his team take off to re-steal the lootand end up in a pulse-pounding, pedal-to-the-metal chase that careens up, down and below the streets of Los Angeles. With an ensemble all-star cast that also includes Edward Norton, Seth Green, JasonStatham, Mos Def, Franky G and Donald Sutherland,"The Italian Job" is hot!
Amazon.com: Though it bears little resemblance to the original 1969 thriller starring Michael Caine, the 2003 remake of The Italian Job stands on its own as a caper comedy that's well above average. The title's a misnomer--this time it's actually a Los Angeles job--but the action's just as exciting as it propels a breezy tale of honor and dishonor among competing thieves. Inheriting Caine's role as ace heist-planner Charlie Croker, Mark Wahlberg plays straight-man to a well-cast team of accomplices, including Mos Def, Jason Statham, and scene-stealer Seth Green in a variation of the role originally played by Noel Coward. As the daughter of Croker's ill-fated mentor (Donald Sutherland), Charlize Theron is recruited to double-cross a double-crosser (Edward Norton in oily villain mode), and once again, speedily versatile Mini Coopers play a pivotal role in director F. Gary Gray's exhilarating car-chase climax. It's perhaps the greatest product placement in movie history, and just as fun the second time around. --Jeff Shannon
Good action movie High action movie keeps you at the end of the seat. Its one of the best collection in my library.
The Italian Job This is a real "thriller". The plot moves right along and the acting is excellent. We watch this movie frequently.
The Italian Job in HD Although HD DVD lost the HD war, I still love it. The Italian Job looks great on a 1080p TV.
