Their scheme involves causing a major traffic jam in the middle of Turin, Italy, which allows them to steal gold ingots from an armored car. The gold is then stashed in a bus, and the predictable chase ensues.

Charlie is a newly free man with a “job” to do: create a traffic jam in Torino, Italy, in order to allow a team of thieves to steal a shipment of gold from the mafia and slip away undetected. A comedy caper film featuring car chases and chaos galore.

Slant Magazine by Eric Henderson
The Italian Job isn’t the first movie to take car chases into strange and new environments, but it sure is creative.
As a comic heist film, The Italian Job is diverting, though slight. As a feature-length advertisement for the MINI Cooper, however, it's an unqualified triumph.
The Guardian by Peter Bradshaw
The brio and ambition of The Italian Job can’t be doubted and Caine has enormous charisma.
The New York Times by Vincent Canby
The film is technically sophisticated and emotionally retarded.
