An amazing classic with iconic features

4 stars

The Italian Job is a very famous classic film that has set the standard for modern productions. A very distinguishing part of this brilliant movie is the car chase that other films have used as a template for their heists, including many features of this one. It has also used music in a very effective way, setting the scene and created the desired moods through different genres. For example, using classical music when introducing Mr Bridger, who was very posh. The plot itself is based around a gripping heist that shows the power of the Mini. These cars are used for some intense stunts that were almost entirely real and add much more excitement to the film. I think this is suitable for all ages over twelve as it is quite family friendly and appealing to most people older than that as well. The movie is ended on a literal cliffhanger that leaves you itching for more and allows an opinion on what the final outcome could be.
