This box set contains both versions of The Italian Job--the original 60s classic starring Michael Caine and the 2003 remake, featuring Mark Wahlberg.
very good first film and an ok 2nd film!

The dvd boxset is great and for the price is worth it! The first film is excellent and is played out well by the actors and actresses! It is a fun film with the Classic best british car to date, the Mini! Shame that the sequal to it was never produced, but the re make of the film I thought was just average and the story line could've been made better. I thought the car scenes could've been longer and the ending a little better, but still, it was decent enough to watch!

A remake with potential
Review date: 2005-01-05 Rating: 8 out of 10
The original Italian Job is without doubt a classic piece of British acting, worthy of enternal praise. The remake isn't! However, no remake of a classic is going to live up to the original (although Oceans 11 is close), and this new film is still entertaining and does a reasonable job at keeping true to the original intent and story line. Ok, so Hollywood has gotten involved and made this a big picture production, but the limited cast and action sequences are still good and mostly believable (although the helicopter chase scene does go ott).
I liked it, and the box set offers you the chance to see both films in one evening. Not bad and worth a look
