No. 3 - The Italian Job

Michael Caine charmed the audience in his portrayal of the savvy cockney mastermind behind a daring heist in Italy in the 1969 film The Italian Job.

 

In 2003, director of the reboot F Gary Gray did his best to upgrade the vintage version with shiny new parts (Charlize Theron and Mark Whalberg). However, with a change in storyline and without Michael Caine the only favourable comparison to the original film was the use of Minis as the getaway car.

 

The countdown continues... No. 2

... and No. 4
