"Variety"s Robert Koehler compared "The Italian Job" to "The Score" (2001), another "finely tuned heist pic" which also featured Edward Norton in a similar role. David Denby, writing for "The New Yorker", praised Norton's performance, as well as those of Seth Green and Mos Def, and the lack of digital effects in the action sequences. Owen Gleiberman of "Entertainment Weekly" gave the film a B− grade, comparing it positively to the 2000 remake of "Gone in 60 Seconds", as well as the 2001 remake of "Ocean's Eleven".
