  18. The Italian Job (2003) Review by Roger Ebert “…we do, after all, sometimes go to the movies just to have a good time and not to be mired in a slough of existential despond.” “There are a couple of nice dialogue touches; Edward Norton is not the first actor to say, “I liked him right up until the moment I shot him,” but he is certainly the latest.” “This is just the movie for two hours of mindless escapism on a relatively skilled professional level.”

  19. The Italian Job (2003) • Climax: Charlie and his crew enact the final plan to get revenge on Steve, using the Minis and stealing the gold by dropping the truck through the ground, similar to the Italian job at the beginning of the film.

  20. The Italian Job (2003) • Falling Action & Resolution: Charlie makes a deal with Mashkov, giving him a portion of the gold stolen from Steve. Each member of the crew is shown enjoying their new fortune.
