    • Goofs
      At 53:20, after Elyse leaves the craps table, the dice roller calls for a drink. Then he picks up the dice and turns to accept the drink. The dice in his right-hand breaks the plane of the table. If this were to happen in a real casino, the croupier would be all over the player and would be required to change the dice.

      [first lines]

      Ivan Warding: [narrating] The accomplished bank robber and escape artist, Willie Sutton, was once asked by a reporter why he robbed banks. Sutton remarked, "because that's where the money is".

      Ivan Warding: [narrating] Of course if Willie Sutton was alive today... he wouldn't be robbing banks... he'd be robbing the rich

    Not the best heist movie but it wasn't bad either.

    Lying And Stealing might not be the best heist movie ever but it doesn't pretend to be the best heist movie so it's okay. The heists are quite simple, nothing sofisticated at all, most of the time they just walk out with the art, but it's entertaining and that was enough for me. It could have used more suspense to make it a really good movie, you never have that feeling with any of the heists and that's a bit of a letdown. The acting wasn't bad, the cinematography was good, so all in all it's worth a watch, just don't expect a gem.
