Can you find the original Italian Job somewhere?  Rented the DVD and loved
the Mini's but would put this one in the category of light entertainment.
'Did like minimal on screen violence and the gratuitous sex scene.  Charlize
Theron is also terrific in Trial and Error,  with Seinfeld veteran Michael
Richards.
