caper films

Caper films are a genre focusing on clever, often daring thefts or heists, typically involving team plans, intricate schemes, and high-stakes execution. These movies emphasize suspense, ingenuity, and meticulous planning as characters devise and carry out their criminal endeavors. While rooted in crime, they often highlight wit and resourcefulness rather than violence, creating entertaining narratives about characters outsmarting authorities or rival criminals. Classic examples include films like "Ocean’s Eleven" and "The Italian Job," where the appeal lies in watching the elaborate plans unfold with twists and clever solutions.
