I love this game about as much as I loved the movies (both the 1969 Michael Caine original and the 2003 Mark Wahlberg version). I admit I have trouble getting the stunt courses completed well enough to pass, but the difficult I have just makes it more fun!

This game is so exciting.....it feels like you're in the mini cooper. It is an awesome game for action and adventure. If you own an xbox you have to own this game

Any game that enables you to speed a MINI Cooper down a flight of stairs then watch as the two cop cars chasing you crash head-on into a mangled mess can't be half bad...
The cut scenes through Story mode look like they were thrown together at the last second, however, as they are sometimes nothing more than flyover footage of a building while you listen to the voiceover...Considering this is a game cinematic based on a feature film, it's extremely disappointing, especially since the first cut scene you're given is perfectly interwoven with both footage from the game and the movie. The game developers had an awesome opportunity to incorporate more of this actual film footage to guide you through the caper, but for whatever reason (most likely time), decided to go with the shorter, cheaper scenes of buildings I already described.

When you take a turn at top speed and get your MINI on two tires as you slide between oncoming traffic, you really do feel the rush of excitement. But it's still tough to recommend The Italian Job as anything more than a rental...
