Storyline
Caught Stealing (2025) follows veteran art thief Marcus Reed (Idris Elba) as he teams with rookie hacker Alice Chen (Lana Condor) to execute a daring museum heist in New York City. But when a relentless federal agent (Jon Hamm) uncovers their scheme, they’re forced into a dangerous game of cat and mouse—one that will test loyalty, identity, and the true cost of freedom.
Why It’s Our Vibe
Smart, stylish, and emotionally charged, Caught Stealing combines slick heist mechanics with character-driven storytelling. Director Antoine Fuqua grounds the glamour of high-stakes theft in real human stakes—Elba’s nuanced performance anchors the film even as the plot races through moral gray zones. It’s a bold and gripping thriller that keeps you guessing until the final frame.
