Heist [DVD] [2001]

Heist is a no nonsense thriller with Gene Hackman on top form and lifting it out of the ordinary. He has the ability to put a quiet power into his performances without the need to overact and here he gives a powerful understated show of a man at the top of his game, similar to his acting in Enemy of the State.Top notch

NOT BAD FOR AN OLD MOVIE

a chose this rating a) as a collector of Gene Hackman films, and b) as a lover of high action crime thrillers. both Hackman and DeVito play excellent roles. met all expectations, and is highly recommended.

Leagues better than most in the genre, with a top cast and cracking dialogue from Mamet. Hackman is excellent as always, and the twists and turns keep you on your toes. Well worth a watch.

This under-rated film does what it says on the tin. I saw it reviewed once as some of the greatest writing or funniest film or something and look for ages until I found it. It's awesome, great characters and a great plot. Highly recommend.

I remembered this as being a smarter snappier script than it proved to be, perhaps it has aged poorly or its just less impressive after years of seeing other smart heist movies. I still enjoyed it however, Hackman at his best and a young Sam Rockwell. If you like Mamet worth viewing.

Good tale. I love Rebecca Pigeon. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good heist movie.. Yes, I liked it.

Great film (intelligent Mamet script, wonderful performances) at good price, which arrived in excellent condition
