What are some good "heist" movies?

[BobombETA]

I love this movie.

3 kings was good, saw it in theater when i was a kid, my dad and i liked it my mom hated it. :) While there not really true "heist" movies, the "Transporter" movies, were good imo, but for true hiest ones, I cant think of any that havent been posted already.

french connection, great train robbery, butch cassidy and the sundance kid, any of the clint eastwood spaghetti westerns, the killing (black and white but awesome), i'll think of some more.

I do recommend watching the older/original versions (60's&70's) of the thomas crown affair, the italian job, and while not a heist but similar genre "the jackal". Bruce willis' version is cool, but the original is much better and darker.

I LOVE heist films. My favorite kind of action film, along with spy/espionage types (ie; Bourne).

we need a whole other thread for it... there's only a dozen 007 films alone.

What's the Worst That Could Happen? was also a decent and funny one.
