Consensus: Even though Oscar-bearers Nicolas Cage, Angelina Jolie, and Robert Duval came aboard for this project, the quality of Gone in 60 Seconds is disappointingly low. The plot line is nonsensical, and even the promised car-chase scenes are boring.

Synopsis: Memphis Raines (Nicholas Cage) is a former car thief who is forced to come out of retirement when his younger brother, Kip (Giovanni Ribisi), is unable to deliver 50 expensive cars to dangerous... Memphis Raines (Nicholas Cage) is a former car thief who is forced to come out of retirement when his younger brother, Kip (Giovanni Ribisi), is unable to deliver 50 expensive cars to dangerous smuggler Raymond Calitri (Christopher Eccleston). With his brother's life on the line, Memphis must enlist his old car-stealing partners for help in order to pull off the ultimate crime. His team includes his mentor, Otto (Robert Duvall), and an old flame (Angelina Jolie), plus a crew of other colorful characters. Once he gets them all together, Memphis has to do the impossible: organize the theft of 50 cars from all over Los Angeles in a single night, hampered by rivals, security systems, and the best efforts of the LAPD detective (Delroy Lindo) who is out to get him. GONE IN 60 SECONDS is a fun, action-packed movie featuring producer Jerry Bruckheimer's trademarks: a simple, heartfelt story, comedy, spectacular action, an excellent cast of stars and character actors, and an amazing car chase through the crowded streets of Los Angeles. This film is based on the cult classic 1974 movie of the same name, and it's a must-see for lovers of classic cars or action fans of any stripe. Dominic Sena, the director of KALIFORNIA, directed this fast-moving crime-adventure extravaganza. [More]

Reviews for Gone in 60 Seconds
Fans might buy a new edition, but they might feel ripped off by how little extra material there is
It's impossible to care about Cage's mission, Ribisi is an arsehole who deserves to get crushed, Eccleston a creep who doesn't deserve the cars, and the car-owners are anonymous rich types -- rather like the executives who greenlit this film, perhaps?
Gone In Sixty Seconds describes the time it takes to get out of the theater or hit the power button on your remote.
It gives good action, but also takes the time to play around a bit in the interstices too.
Aside from the nine extra minutes of pre-chase chatter, there's literally nothing on this new DVD that's not on the first one.
The new, unrated Director's Cut contains nine more minutes than the original edition. Can nine minutes make a difference? I dunno. In this case, not much.
