History Film / Heist2001

* OneWordTitle

* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: Honestly it may as well have been titled ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: The Movie. Bergman and Jimmy [[spoiler: and Fran]] have this so hard it borders on StupidEvil. You've already screwed Joe out of his rightful share of the jewelry job that was pulled to force him to pull another job for you, why were you surprised when Joe and his team were ready for you to double cross them again?

* FakinMacGuffin: After [[NoHonorAmongThieves betraying the others]] and stealing the van that is supposed to contain the stolen gold, Jimmy finds out that the hidden compartments are filled with metal washers. Then a second time at the finale, when the gold rods on the boat are revealed to be more fakes, [[spoiler: and then yet a THIRD TIME when the rods in the truck that Fran and Jimmy steal are ALSO fakes.]]

* FakinMacGuffin: After [[NoHonorAmongThieves betraying the others]] and stealing the van that is supposed to contain the stolen gold, Jimmy finds out that the hidden compartments are filled with metal washers.
* NoHonourAmongThieves: After the gold heist, Jimmy betrays the others to steal the gold and Fran.

* PreMortemOneLiner: One notable instance of this trope is this exchange:
-->'''Bergman''': (as he draws his dying breath) Don't you wanna hear my last words?\\
'''Joe Moore''': I just did. (shoots him dead)

'''Jimmy''': So, is he going to be cool?\\

'''Bobby''': Hand to God, that Bible stopped a bullet, would've ruined that fucker's heart. And had he had another Bible in front of his face, that man would be alive today.\\

--> '''Bobby''': Sometimes the adrenaline hits, it give you the shakes.
--> '''Jimmy''': I'm alright.
--> '''Bobby''': No, I'm just saying, sometimes adrenaline gives people the shakes, some other people mistake it for cowardice, maybe you want to pray about it.
--> '''Jimmy''': I'm not a religious man.
--> '''Bobby''': There's nothing wrong with prayer.
--> '''Jimmy''': You think so?
--> '''Bobby''': I'm in this firefight, this trooper, always carried a Bible next to his heart, we used to mock him. That Bible stopped a bullet.
--> '''Jimmy''': No shit.
--> '''Bobby''': Hand to God, that Bible stopped a bullet, would've ruined that fucker's heart. And had he had another Bible in front of his face, that man would be alive today.

--> '''Jimmy''': So, is he going to be cool?
--> '''Pinky''': My motherfucker is so cool, when he goes to bed, sheep count him.
