Product ReviewsThe Italian Job (DVD, 1969)

Good movie, flawed ending.

Michael Caine is fun in this movie. Much lighter in tone than the remake. Just wish the ending was different--i.e. that it had actually BEEN an ending. The cliffhanger leaves the cast (literally) and audience (figuratively) hanging. I understand they were hoping for a sequel, but it never happened, so there's no wrap-up to the story. Too bad. Definitely would have given it a higher rating otherwise.Read full review...

Haunting Song Leads to Robbery and Fast Paced Car Chase.

Movie opens with Matt Monroe's 'On Days Like These' set against

a sports car traveling through high snow covered mountains.

Pleasantly haunting. Hotel worker; beautiful. Crafty robbery<br>
plan to jam the cities traffic leads to police/robber car

chase involving tiny sports cars. Michael Caine is aloof,

flighty and serious. Noel Coward is commanding. The movie

takes you away to another place and time. Worth watching.

Both movie and song are rare.Read full review...

More than just a car chase movie

Michael Caine is just one of the stars in this movie that does such a wonderful job of storytelling... The movie starts with a positively orgasmic uplifting drive through the Alps in a Miura and goes on to pit the English underworld against the Italian mafia (who played themselves in the movie and had the "extra" roles in Turin's plaza)... The escape after the heist is a legendary car chase and the main reason people buy the movie but the non "car people" will enjoy it as well because of the fine character development throughout...Read full review...

The itiia. Job 1969

Product played perfectly

The Italian Job (Original)

I bought this movie because i am obsessed with the classic mini. sadly, I was dissapointed with the movie. it is very poorly made. if this movie was suppossed to promote the classic mini, they could have put a lot more work into the car chase scene. it doesnt look like they put that much effort into the car chase. i found the ending quite entertaining, although i was flabbergasted at the fact that they destroy the minis, not to mention the ferarris alfa romeos and i think a lamborguini as well...and that song...great little tune, gets stuck in your head though...Read full review...

Very Unique Movie

If you enjoy mob films, this will be an excellent addition to your collection. It is similar to the Transporter and other suspense movies. The camera angles were well done and special effect sparkled.

4 out of 5 for the Italian Job
