I search for movies like Inside Man and posts recommended Heat.

But there’s pretty much just 2 robberies? In the bank scene, they wear masks but have their faces seen before they even put them on and just open the safe.

Reviews also mention this as a heist movie.

Is there a distinction between heist and robbery? I thought heists were like complex thefts that the people didn’t even know that the money is gone

    Are you envisioning a Payday 2 stealth run as a heist, but a loud run as a robbery?

    Are you looking for like, Mission Impossible type stuff? Dancing through lasers, using masks and fake fingerprints to get into a vault?

    Hilariously, I think the Now You See Me movies, featuring completely absurd magic that does not make sense in its own universe, I think those feature more ‘totally undetected heists’ than what are commonly considered classic heist movies.
