The Italian Job tries to capture the high-octane thrills of its movie counterpart but falls short. The driving missions, primarily centered around Mini Coopers, offer some fun moments of weaving through LA traffic and pulling off stunts. However, repetitive mission design, a frustratingly imprecise map, and lackluster presentation make the experience feel underdeveloped. While diehard fans of the film might find some enjoyment in recreating certain scenes, The Italian Job mostly feels like a rushed movie tie-in.

A short 60fps mission-based driving game like "Driver". Tight arcade controls, demanding targets, interesting env. Story mode echoes movie plot. Stunt mode involves driving elaborate scaffolded courses. Fun!
