If you’re looking for a great heist movie, I think you’ll love Crime 101!
The performances by Halle Berry, Chris Hemsworth, and Mark Ruffalo were fantastic. And if you watched The Banshees of Inisherin (2022), Barry Keoghan plays a totally different character in Crime 101 (2026). And he’s really, really good, too!
In fact, when the movie ended, I was almost a little disappointed. Not because the movie and the ending weren’t great- I just wanted to spend a little more time with the characters. Could we extend this another hour or two? Can we make a sequel? I just really loved it! And I think you will, too.
