Oh my ***.....has anyone seen the ad?

It looks absolutely terrible!!! Not least is it based in the states (rather than Turin) but it simply just looks poor !!!

I was so looking forward to it as well :(

Yeah, i saw the advert too...

Basically, still called the Italian Job, even though its set in LA....

I havent heard one good thing about it..

I have it,its not a bad film if you watch it without the other one in mind,but it still doesnt compare.i was expecting the "your only spose to blow the bloody doors off" quote all movie but alas.......it never came.

"contains one use of a strong word" 12a rating

Yeah I saw that - did chuckle!!

To be honest, I watched the entire advert, and only at the end when it said the name of the film did I actually realise what it was about !!!

I'll go see it, but only just so that I see it (as opposed to an intent want to see it !)

I think it looks bloody great!!!

Edward Norton, Mark Whalberg great... Jason Statham but GUYS!!!

CHARLIZE THERON

and remember, its only a mini adventure...

Think of it as a long BMW advert :winky:

:zee:

those long BMW adds you can download are amazing 10 mins of pure action !

the one with madogga in it is very funny :) I guess Guy Richie enjoied making her look a fool in that one :)

Mat Wildernes has them on CD.. I loved them all. Clive Owen is very good at the dead pan stuff. The Z4 chase is good. the X5 is really moving. I loved that one. Have you Seen Clive Owen in Gosford Park. He is not better or worse in either. Brilliant actor.

Not gonna buy a beemer though.... EVER.

for the younger people who aren't caught up in the nostalgia of the old film the latest version is very entertaining

saw it from kazaa and will go and see it at the pictures if i get a chance too

any film with cars in it is a good thing :o

I believe he's going to be the next James Bond...

...I mean Clive Owen, not Loz... though I hear Loz's Lex may feature: the next film has an evil meglomaniac taking control of the world's supply of Nos, from then on, only he can get that extra boost to beat everyone away at the lights - from there it's a small step to world domination.

Needless to say, in that car, the baddy has no problem attracting an entourage of Bond girls
