Classic Heist Films

I love heist movies, it's by far the best genre. This is my selection of the best, most authentic heist films.

Definition: A heist film is a film that has an intricate plot woven around a group of people trying to steal something.

Caper & Other Genre

A heist is a heist and a Caper is a heist with humour and farce.
