What is a good movie about a bank robbery?

I recently saw the movie "Inside Man" and I really liked it. Does anyone know another movie like Inside Man that is based around a bank robbery? Thanks in advance.

Here are a few you might like - I added a mini summary so you can decide what you want to watch.

Bank Job, The (2008)
the true story of the 1971 Baker Street bank robbery which was prevented from being told for over thirty years because of a Government gagging order. The real story of how one of the biggest robberies in British history took place with no arrests ever made nor money ever recovered.In September 1971, thieves tunneled into the vault of a bank in London's Baker Street and looted safe deposit boxes of cash and jewelry worth over three million pounds. None of it was recovered. Nobody was ever arrested.

ABSOLUTE POWER: A career thief witnesses a horrific crime involving the U.S. President. Stars Clint Eastwood and Gene Hackman.

AFTER THE SUNSET: The story of what happens after a master thief achieves his last big score, when the FBI agent who promised he'd capture him is about to do just that. Stars Pierce Brosnan and Woody Harrelson.

CATCH ME IF YOU CAN: A true story about Frank Abagnale Jr. who, before his 19th birthday, successfully conned millions of dollars worth of checks as a Pan Am pilot, doctor, and legal prosecutor. Stars Tom Hanks and Leonardo DiCaprio.

ENTRAPMENT: Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive. Then again, practice makes perfect. Catherine Zeta-Jones works for an insurance agency that sends her to track down and help capture an art thief, played by Sean Connery.

HEAT: A Los Angeles crime saga, "Heat" focuses on the lives of two men on opposite sides of the law - one a detective; the other a thief. Stars Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro

THE ITALIAN JOB: Based on a 1969 Michael Caine film of the same name, thieves plan to pull of the heist of their lives by creating Los Angeles largest traffic jam ever. GREAT CAST!

Run, Lola, Run is a really great movie. But it's about the robbery of a store, not a bank. And it's in German so you'd have to turn on the subtitles. But other than that it's a truly amazing movie. Kind of psychological. It's great.
