Too many people are commenting on the wrong version. This version stars Mark Wahlberg. Once Donald Sutherland is out of the picture, the chemistry just isn't there with the team and Mark can't carry this as the leading man, not really the…

Now how on Earth is Noel Coward in a movie made in 2003 when he died in 1973?? I guess all aspects of America are broken including our libraries

(1969 original) Caine stars as the mastermind of a gold robbery in Turin, ducking both the police and the Mafia to get the loot out of town. Noël Coward does some slumming as Caine’s backer, an incarcerated crime lord who has the run of…

2003. Heist movie. Great chases, explosions and routing. The rest bit silly. 2010: same premise different plot. Found boring start

That final chase scene is absolutely worth it! The end song was weird but didn't detract from the enjoyment of the chase. Far better than the modern remake.

An absolute classic of the genre which set the standard and is still revered by car enthusiasts. FIAT product placements abound and great use is made of the company's rooftop test track. Just remember that it is also a product of its…

Just couldn’t get into it. Michael Caine has always had smarmy acting style which some would say is what makes it his work charming, but here it was a bit too much for me.

Stunt drivers were fantastic with the power boats and Mini Cooper cars. There is no honor among thieves. Crooks stealing from crooks.

A good but rather formulaic heist film. The Chicago Reader rates it thumbs up, but also says "mindless fun." That truly describes this film.

Lots of action, but has a very predictable and plain story

This is an excellent movie worth watching. I had forgot I had seen in the past and I once again found it very entertaining.

This movie is full of action and has many twists. The characters are witty and find a way to get justice for what wronged them.

I love a good heist movie, and this one does not disappoint. It races along, gives you some good laughs, and keeps your attention the entire time.

This crime/action movie is as much about spectacular car, speedboat, and helicopter chase scenes as about safe-cracking. It illustrates the role of luck (unexpected events) in the success or failure of a crime. The movie warns of the…

I never saw the original movie with Michael Caine, so I can't compare the two versions. I can say that this one is fast-paced and enjoyable, with some great action scenes.

This is a well-made film, but the original film was far more fun. I strongly see you see the original film too and then form your own judgement.

It's aging, and not well, but it's still better than the remake.

I seen this movie at least a couple of times now. Each time I watch this film I love it more because of the interesting chase scenes, Italians, mobs ,heist film, and action. Nonetheless, Michael Caine plays Charlie Croker very well I…

The original Italian Job with the latest 1969 technologies and hardwares to rob a gold delivery from China to Italy. Super escape car chases through Turin and the Alpine of that era: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Italian_Job
