Big Deal on Madonna Street Ratings & Reviews
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...because the characters are so likable and their plan for breaking into the safe is genuinely interesting, it's easy enough to overlook the few dull spots.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A devilish black comedy about an inept gang of thieves in Rome that turned out to be a big influence in spoof heist films.
Antagony & Ecstasy
Tim Brayton
One of the cases where the first of its kind got everything just about perfect, right out of the gate.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
a non-too-subtle satire on ... the crime genre, with especially good pokes at Jules Dassin's heist masterpiece Rififi
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Monicelli's seminal Italian comedy, a spoof of heist movies with great performances by Gassman, Mastroianni, Toto, and Cardinale, had major impact on many American satires, past and present.

The only really outstanding element is Piero Umiliani's cool jazz score.
