Oh yeah, I'm familiar. I fell in love with con and heist movies with the George Clooney Oceans movie as a kid. Have raided that genre for all its worth lol

Weirdly? I think my favorites might be the Now You See Me movies. They're so fucking stupid but my god do I enjoy them.

If you haven't, watch The Spanish Prisoner. It turns the genre on it's head by telling the story from the perspective of the guy being conned.

Or Nine Queens. Really good Argentinian movie.

Not a con movie, but too much fun...
