My Christmas has now officially been fulfilled. I watched the (original) Italian Job for the 1000th time and every time I watch it I love it. Probably the best film where the cars star ever made - unless you know better! |

the remake wasn't too bad either in my opinion, but you can't beat the original.. |

Agree it's an excellent film! The recent remake wasn't too bad either as a piece of entertainment, but lost the spirit of the original. Have you literally seen it 1000 times? |

Kam - sorry but I really didn't like the re-make, it lost it's raw appeal and was too americanised. |

Was too americanised and if i remember right the ending was crap.. but the new minis looked brilliant and the driving was quite impressive..

When my wife was working in Turin in the summer of this year I went out a few times to see her, one weekend we went looking for Italian Job landmarks, and got to the old Fiat factory, where they filmed the scenes on the rooftop racetrack - called the Lingoto Track.
