December 4, 2009Not a remake as a reinterpretation of the original classic. They knew they just couldn't re-do the brilliant cheekiness of Collinson's '69 original. Basically aweful - you can live a happy comfortable life without ever having to view this. Avoid unless hospitalized!

A pandering, debased, generic little nothing of a movie. And I'm still trying to figure out why I loved it so inordinately. full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
This is pure entertainment but smart entertainment, plotted and executed with invention and humor and acted by a winning cast radiating good-movie energy. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
This is just the movie for two hours of mindless escapism on a relatively skilled professional level. full review

Small and steady, it wins the race with brains, not brawn. full review

The Italian Job zooms along with confidence, smarts, and some of the coolest car chases this side of the Indy 500. full review

Nick Schager, Slant Magazine
Like Norton's unbelievably dull villain, the film has about as much imagination as a Mini has trunk space. full review

September 28, 2009This is one of the smoothest movies. It's was cool to see the one that thought he had it goin on, actually get out witted right in his face. In my opinion, "THEY DID THAT."

June 26, 2007FYI~~ The Brazilian Job MIGHT be coming out in 2009. They don't even have a script yet....
IF it does come out, I highly doubt it will be as The Italian Job (2001).
This film was MUCH better than the original Italian Job starring Micheal Caine and Noel Coward... -
April 9, 2007OMG! i loved this movie i want everyone to see it! i can't wait for the second one the brazilian Job! Out next year !
