The Italian Job Mike Gadd   $2 theater   13 September 2003 Very good movie overall. Nothing really to complain about. Solid acting, good story, car chases with tiny cars. What more could you ask for?

The Italian Job Steve Gadd   DVD   26 October 2003 Very entertaining execution of the career-ending-heist-spoiled-by-turncoat-partner-sweet-revenge formula. Includes a one-hour and fifty minute commercial for the Mini Cooper.

The Italian Job Kristin Schrock   DVD--Marky Mark Double Feature   04 January 2004 A fun romp that didn't have nearly enough kissing. When you have two attractive leads, it only seems logical that they should lock lips. But, this did continue the tradition of featuring Edward Norton in his underwear.

The Italian Job A Bennett   DVD rental for 2004 "Marky-thon"   04 January 2004 Sort of disposeable, date-type film. Probably more car chases than I care to pay attention to (some with boats, but it's all the same). The female role was handled well, and I will remain a sucker for the training/preparation for a big heist sequences. A sin, though, that not only was Marky Mark's upper body imprisoned in clothing throughout, but he and Charlize Theron didn't even get to share any love moments. A chase and chaste film, sans even kissing. Wah.

The Italian Job (1969) Ray Hunley   Netflix DVD   31 March 2005 Third in the "originals" series. This film lacks the revenge angle of its successor, which I haven't decided yet is a feature or a bug. However, it gets at least one full point for casting Benny Hill as a concupiscent computer expert with an eye for the rubenesque. The cliff-hanger ending gives the nod to this movie over the 2003 version.
