COFFEE Is for CLOSERS

Ankesh,

Thanks for that list.

I was thinking, Heist and CONfidence - they're on the list.

I'd like to Add a couple of movies...

The Score - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0227445/ - with Robert De Niro and Ed Norton. Another "aging crim does one last job" movie. But like Heist, it just begs for a twist.

Ronin - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0122690/ - also with Robert De Niro. A "group of people try to take something from another group of people" movie.

The Interview - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120714/ - with Hugo Weaving (played Agent Smith in the Matrix Trilogy). A guy is brought into custody on suspicion of multiple murder. This is his Interview.

V for Vendetta - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0434409/ - again with Hugo Weaving. Produced by the Matrix producers (and written by them from a Graphic Novel Adaptation). Besides having that annoying Natalie Portman in it, the movie is worth multiple watches to pick up something new at each watching. (Note: If you are ultra conservative you might get put off by what you Think is Conservative Bashing in the movie. Get over it; deal with it; and you'll see there is more to this movie. Also know, it was Originally Written during a period of hatred toward Margaret Thatcher which is why you could think there is Conservative bashing in it.)

last but not least...

Equilibrium - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0238380/ - staring the new Batman Christian Bale. Not a heist movie or Con movie. Just good "mindless violence" as I call Action Flicks. Set in the future in a rigidly government controlled time it... heck, just see it for the entertainment of it. (Here's a YouTube Film Clip Music Video made from bits of the movie and set to Evanescence's bring Me To Life http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPypRhzfiAY and another Song put to action scenes from the movie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bGqnK0mFq4 - enjoy)

Excellent list Michael!

I'll have to watch The Interview sometime soon...

I did some digging and found a list I had created long time back...

I love watching con movies and movies with unpredictible and smart twists.

There was also this other old movie about a jury where 1 person persuades the other 11 in the room... but I forget the name... that was pretty good too.
