Don't waste yer money!

Can't believe they used the name of the original for this POS.

The original was a great flick, with a great car chase... the new one... doesn't really have a car chase at all...

Looked like a Mini Promotion. Have a friend that wants to buy one, he's gonna see the movie just for the cars.

It does a better job of promoting the original mini IMO...


Got a laugh at one point where they ask a guy to make three mini's able to take a 2700lb load, and able to outrun anything...

They offer him 10,000$ lol...


The mini's look nice with the big wheels and subtle ground effects kit, but the driving scenes are real weak...  and wait til you see how they jump with 2700lbs in the back..

He'd be better off to go to a Mini dealer, they look cool on the outside, but the interior.. gotta be seen +)

You'll never beat the original.

Ya.. it was pretty weak.  No skin and no real car chase.  Pretty lousy overall... even if it did have minis in it.

Well then this film just lost my interest.  Maybe I'll wait for it to come on broadcast tv some weekend.

A better Italian job:

WTF!!! Watching this movie for the cars would be like watching a Rosanne movie and hoping for lots of skin.
