Heist movies/dramas

Yes! In fact, my son is the one who asked me to watch The Fiery Priest with him. I enjoyed both. You and I seem to have similar taste in shows. I just now created a collection called “Lovable Con Artists” so that I can add some of these titles to recommend them to my kids and their friends.

Have you watched “Now You See Me” and “Now You See Me2” I love the magician con-artists. Not Korean of course. Or “21” I think its 2008 movie. Counting card con-artists I like that one too.




My brain started thinking of these. I like heist shows also!

Yep, watched both Now You See Me movies with my kids. I have to check out 21.

I love the heist/ con-artist genre!! This one has such an awesome team…no romance, but lovely family-like bond. Watched it for Song Seung Hoon and Krystal :heart_eyes: Loved everyone

@vivi_1485, I really enjoyed The Player too, and it’s already been added to my collection. I think I enjoy heist/con artist genre because there is less of the predictable romance and more of camaraderie and game of wits.

@mirjam_465, I saw the cover a while ago but had dismissed it because I thought it was just another revenge type of show but I just read the synopsis and it sounds good. Thank you! By the way, there is another movie (not exactly a heist) that has a similar “locker switch” theme and it’s worth checking out.

I’ve watched so many that I sometimes can’t remember them all when I get asked for recommendations. This way they are all in one place.:blush: Check out the “Underrated Gems” collection, too.

Just started watching a heist/thriller series called Lupin (on NF) with the boys and it’s very promising.

I was thinking of watching that one. I heard it’s similar to La Casa de Papel (Money Heist) which is one of my favourite shows.

We only saw the first episode but I really like it. We will probably finish the rest of first season this weekend. I heard the season 2 will come out in December.
