Movies In Your Spare Time #5: The Italian Job

For my last MYST I decided to do another Mark Wahlberg movie because there has not been one of his movies that I have not liked. So when I saw this on TV and it said Mark Wahlberg I decided to watch it and I am very glad I did.  This movie is about 6 guys who are trying to pull off a 35 million dollar heist of gold in Venice, Italy. When they succesfully complete the heist, A jealous member of the team (Edward Norton) decides to steal the gold for himself and leave the rest of the team for dead. He succesfully kills the teams leader ('Donald Sutherland'). So now Charlie (Mark Wahlberg) wants revenge, so they follow Steve to L.A and start planning the next job to steal the money that was "rightfully theres". This movie was exciting and
there all kind of twists and turns that are going to leave you breathless.
  Mark Wahlberg plays the same kind of character he plays in Four Brothers. A tough nosed guy that is not going to stop until he gets what he wants.Its the same thing in The Fighter, he was not going to stop until he was the number 1 boxer in the world and he did just that. He always plays a dedicated character and that is why he is such a great actor.
  One key scene in the movie is the ending scene where John Bridges ('Donald Sutherland') daughter walks up to Steve (Edward Norton) and says "This was never about the money. You know that right?) and That was true because she just wanted to do something for her father that she barely knew because he was always on the job. It was a great time to say that line because you could feel like you were in that situation and you woulld do the same thing.
  The Carmera Work was always directly at the actor/ actress. I think it was because they were not trying to hide anything from you. They wanted the audience to know exactly what was going on. I loved that about the movie because then there were no secrets being kept from you about the plot.
   All in all, I give this movie 9 out of 10 stars. I have done 3 MArk Wahlberg films and I have given all of them 9 out of 10 stars because he is so good at making you feel connected to the movie.
