    Going to STRONGLY disagree with Now You See Me unless you have a room temperature IQ. It's a heist movie for idiots.

    I only remember it as fun. I don't remember the quality, the plot, the characters, the setting, or the execution. I think I was trying to get into someone else's pants. Maybe that's the fun I remember.

    I've also never felt a need for a rewatch or sequels.

    Ok, noted. No to Now You See Me.

    The Star Wars side story Solo is actually kind of a space heist. I enjoyed it and think the hate is overblown.

    The Thomas Crown Affair and After the Sunset are two Pierce Brosnan movies that both involve some fun heisting as well.

    Just remembered, Guy Ritchie loves a good heist flick. Lots of his movies qualify. I think Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels counts, Snatch, The Gentlemen, and even sort of The Man from UNCLE.

    The D&D movie was actually a pretty good heist film

    Gone in 60 Seconds is a childhood classic of mine.

    The Usual Suspects is about a heist but maybe not a 'heist movie' from memory but definitely worth watching despite having Kevin Spacey in the cast.

    I havent seen "Logan Lucky" mentioned. Thats a fun one. Plus it has Adam Driver as a one armed bartender in it. Also, "Den of Thieves" is pretty good. Violent though.

    Definitely try watching the series Money Heist (La Casa de Papel) if you haven't yet. A lot of the story is driven by a hostage situation but the scenes involving the actual heist planning/execution are really well written and interesting imo

    The TV show Leverage is basically a heist every episode.

    Another film that isn't technically a heist movie but still a crime drama that involves a heist that I really like is Sexy Beast (2000)

    If you don't like Heat then you don't like heist movies.

    As someone who absolutely loves Heat, I don't really think of it as a "heist movie". It's definitely got some heist stuff in it, but what defines that genre to me is that the whole movie is building up to and executing one big heist. Imo it's more of a cat-and-mouse crime drama, and a fantastic one at that.

    For anyone else reading this, if you haven't seen Heat, it's well worth your time for the diner scene alone.

    I watched like 10 minutes but it was too dark to see anything and the audio killed me. Also I don't like movies with dudes that look like pedophiles

    Money Plane. It's a smaller one, but definitely go in blind.
