Heist

Few things are more exciting than watching the ultimate heist unfold . For years , directors and writers have worked inexhaustibly to produce the perfect notional heist . With so many broker that make a good heist view ,   it ’s certainly no soft task . The scene   ca n’t just be exciting , it has to be clever as well since the   plan for the heist is just as important as the armed robbery itself . There are a ton of great heists over the class such as the immaculately project and fulfil savings bank heist in Spike Lee’sInside Man .

Not all heists are created equal , however , as some may focalise more on the pickup than the actual looting . With so many iterations of everyone ’s favorite bank robber fantasy , there   have been   plenty of different heist with vary level of naive realism but even an unbelievable holdup can still be a joyousness to watch .

Army Of The Dead - Casino Heist

Zack Snyder ’s zombi - filled heist quiver drive is already becoming one of the most - watched movies ever on Netflix , however , even within the   raving mad assumption of a zombi - infested Las Vegas , the armed robbery itself does n’t make a whole lot of good sense . Before it even begins the team has to first count on out what kind of boob traps are obscure in the prospicient hall between the lift and the burial vault door .

Complete with dart , machine shooter , and a wall that simply slams exclude any would - be stealer , the security on this vault seems like something one might find in an ancient temple , rather than a casino vault .   It ’s all honorable playfulness but it seems a little flake goofy , even for this movie .

The Dark Knight - Joker’s Bank Heist

Although this aspect does get plenty   of kudos for having one of the coolest part introduction ever consider in a superhero movie , there ’s plenty wrong with this aspect in terms of realism . For starters , it seems unexpended that a bank that massive and with that much cash in it could have their entire alarm clock system accessed by nothing more than a golf stroke of a mallet .

There is also the issue of a henchman cracking a monolithic depository financial institution vault door using only a pair of sneakers on his hands . Perhaps the biggest issuing in this picture is a charabanc slamming through a concrete wall without so much as a prick on it . Still , the scene is an infrangible masterclass in how to premise a villain .

Oceans 11 - Casino Heist

Oceans 11is aclassic in terms of heist movies , reimagining the idea of a " star - studded , " cast the total movie is loads of fun . The armed robbery however is a little bit ridiculous at time , especially when it comes to the execution . Although they go through the naturalistic process of case the gambling casino , getting inside info , etc . there is a very simple problem with their plan ; It ’s too delicate .

middling much every single piece of this highly intricate plan could go wrong at any moment , with so much at stake and so many people involved , at least one thing would n’t work out perfectly , causing their plan to crumble and   their   concealment to be blown .

Now You See Me - Bank Robbery

Now You See Me , is n’t supposed to be the most serious film in the world , even though it does attempt to be at times . One of the biggest issues with this movie , as well as its sequel , is that the premise is ground on deception , just like it is with real magic , but then the movie relies on what can only be real magic to move the plot .

This is especially true   when the Horsemen   overcharge a man in the crew that the group on the Q.T. performed hypnosis on to convert him to go to Las Vegas , and attend their show . Although the conjuring trick is afterward " explain , " there are still a lot   of aspects that are simply impossible .

National Treasure - Stealing The Declaration Of Independence

Nicolas Cage stating that he ’s going to steal the Declaration of Independence might just be one of the capital and well - know lines in movie history . Similar to theOceans 11casino heist , the plan for   this give the conjuration of being well - thought - out but give in lots of silly plot holes . For starters , the whole plan relies a pile on what they assume would befall in sealed situation as well as leave too much up to chance .

That include   knowing a unripe laser would cause the document to be taken into the hurdle for examination , or that the written document would be left wholly unattended while a monumental political party was go bad on on a higher floor . Do n’t forget that Ben Gates brought his billfold with him on a mission where he was trespass and using a fake name , which seems odd for someone as saucy as him .

Den Of Thieves - Bank Heist

Produced by 50 Cent , Den of Thievesis seems to be one partHeatand one partThe Usual Suspects . Still , it ’s a typical thriller complete with a   wild gunplay , a group of loveable misfit , and of course , plenty of plot holes . There ’s not one thing peculiarly incorrect with the flick ’s giant   money box heist decision that sees the chemical group secretly rob the federal reserve .

However , there are a long ton of things that will have audiences involve question , such as why Donnie did n’t apply the drivel parachute to get into the construction if it was so easy to use it to die . Also , the whole picture show is free-base on the premiss that a ton of these important employees like motortruck drivers and federal taciturnity employees only spill about the hunky-dory details of their job when they get drunk at a bar , which just seems unbelievable .

The Fast And The Furious - Highway Robbery

The movie that start one of the large film franchises in the humankind , has an absurd heist that takes position on a main road at high speeds . Attempting to rob a hand truck at high speeds seems easy enough , except in this slip the squad   does n’t attempt to get the truck to simply stop where they would then outnumber the solo driver 4 to 1 .

alternatively , their plans involve harpoon , cables , and jumping from moving car to move gondola , all while traveling at top speeding . It just seems unnecessary but still , it gets flock of style point .

Logan Lucky - The Racetrack Heist

Even without know that the film was directed by thesame director of the Oceans trilogy , this can find the same at some points . It feature a wacky plaster bandage of fictitious character pulling off a ostensibly impossible heist all because one of them has the perfect architectural plan . The film ’s main heist suffer from many of the issues as theOceansmovies , as it relies too much on chance .

Knowing the jumbo vacuum would work out in a room that large , knowing   the communications protocol for the cashiers in a situation where the electronics went down , etc . There is a lot that could go wrong in this rip-off , not to mention Jimmy left a everlasting lead to make him the prime suspect by rob a place using data he got from a job where he was just arouse .

Oceans 8 - The Diamond Heist

TheOceansmovies are n’t average to be realistic , but still , with a movie in which the whole   premise trust on a perfect plan , you think the plan would be a little more perfect . The biggest in this all - female person - led corps de ballet is once again , leave too much up to chance .

How did no one see the necklace when the busboy had it on his tray ? Why did no one inquiry Tammy after she mysteriously found the necklace ? And at long last , why did no one follow Daphne while she was weary the creation ’s most worthful necklace ? Still , the movie does have a hearty braid that makes up for some other evildoing .

Now You See Me 2 - The Computer Chip Heist

Just like the first motion-picture show in the series , Now You See Me 2relies heavily on magic , sleight of hand , and suggestion so as to complete their heists . After being kidnapped , the team is pull to slip a worthful electronic computer chip that is under some of thebest security in the man .

Although all passingly plausible up to this level , the motion-picture show then dig into the country of shoddy physics in guild to prevent the chip from being find while the thieves are patted down . What ensues is a scene that involves so much bill of fare throwing and sleight of mitt that the card seems like it ’s in a strand , rather than being throw cautiously as the movie suggests .
