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!
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
