History Film / TheItalianJob2003

* [[FruitCart Fruit Boat]]: During the opening heist, a pursuing boat accidentally drives up another boat, is launched into the ear, and lands in one.

The 2003 remake of ''The Italian Job'' was directed by F. Gary Gray and stars Creator/MarkWahlberg, Creator/CharlizeTheron, Creator/EdwardNorton, Creator/SethGreen, Creator/JasonStatham, MosDef, and Creator/DonaldSutherland. It was described by Gray as "[[InNameOnly an homage to]] [[TheItalianJob1969 the original]]". For this reason, fans of the original movie often dismiss it as FanonDiscontinuity. Less stuffy types, however, can take it as a quality action flick in its own right, with simple but effective trope execution, and excellent action sequences.

* MoneyDearBoy: Edward Norton made no secret he was forced to do this film as a contractual requirement with Paramount. He had signed a three-film deal with them, the first of which was ''Primal Fear'', but kept passing on scripts for the other two films until Paramount basically threatened to sue him unless he fulfilled his obligation to the studio. Accordingly, he refused to promote the film.

* TurnInYourBadge: Parodied. Handsome Rob, whilst trying to drive through the city as fast as possible to time the fastest possible escape route, is the second car in line stopped in the left turn lane at a red traffic light (note, this is a green arrow only turn signl). Unfortunately, the driver in front of him is an actor rehearsing the phrase, "Give me your badge and your weapon; I don't want to see you anywhere near this case (pretends to crush cup)" in such a variety of different voices and emphases while reading off the script itself he fails to notice there's a green arrow, until the very last second when it's turning amber and Rob starts honking at him, so he's the only one that gets to go through, with a very disgruntled Rob saying, "Unbelievable!" in disbelief. Also, bonus if you noticed that the actor copies Rob's accent and decides to use that accent for the audition.

* IronicNickname: Skinny Pete.
