Caper movies?

Post by Gawdzilla Sama » Mon Feb 18, 2013 6:33 pm

Which ones do you like? (I'm currently watching "Fast Five", which differs somewhat from "The Italian Job" in small details.)

I prefer salt-preserved capers over vinegar preserved. Bit of a job to soak them, though.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Movies, not moves. I don't care how you acquire your diarrhea.

The League Of Gentlemen (1960) is one of my faves

Yep. Kinda primitive by today's standards, but cool when I saw it in the theater.

I thought it was brilliant in my teens when i saw it in the cinema. Would be interesting to see how it has held up.

The Pink Panther - a caper move wrapped in a farce. The original Italian Job was great, the remake was OK. Oceans 11, the 1960 version with the Rat Pack.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Caper = Robbery on a grand scale. Usually accompanied by short cons, tech guys (hackers), at least one beautiful woman (who is probably connected to the mark in someway), and usually little to no violence.
