Seconding Captain Phillips. Apollo 13 fits the description perfectly too, speaking of Hanks.

Alright, this might be a weird request. I can't play the video game Payday 2 anymore because of motion sickness. Lately, I've been especially nostalgic for the ol' 'Cop-Clicker' so, I watched Heat for the first time on Pluto.tv to see if I would enjoy it. I did, though it was a little more 'human' than I expected. For background, Inception is probably my favorite movie. That movie is a lot of things but I would not describe it as particularly 'human' and that suits me just fine. I wanted to see more heist movies, preferably with a lean towards action. Bonus points for a literal bank robbery, ludicrous waves of cops, being clever/cerebral and/or having good visceral action sequences. I looked at the Wikipedia page for Heist Movies, and could just as easily start there, but the problem is: I am fairly squeamish and I don't want to see movies with lurid depictions of graphic fleshy gore or people squirming around in agony. For instance, (spoilers for 1995's Heat) most of the blood in Heat was fine, like where it's blood on shirts when dudes get shot, but seeing a character with visible slit wrists bothered me. Resources like MPAA ratings or so-called 'parents guides' don't always cover enough, which is why I'm asking here. I have access to Netflix and Disney+, but feel free to suggest others.

What are some good cult movies? I mean movies featuring cults, not movies with cult followings. Although movies about cults that also have cult followings are fine.

I liked The Sacrament but reviews were mixed, might depend on your taste for found footage. The Endless is a very weird, sci-fi take on cults. Faults and Martha Marcy May Marlene are both good but are more about someone recovering from being in a cult.

I’m not sure if a family counts as a cult, but if so, Dogtooth. Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, kind of.

It's ostensibly an espionage movie, but Ronin hits all of these beats (though no bank heist).

It’s not really action packed though but it does take place in a bank! I would also recommend the 1967 film Robbery that’s another good heist film.

I should’ve been more specific, I mean proper cults. Robes, sacrifices, a nude lady tied to an altar, that whole vibe. They don’t have to be satanic, but that kind of old school satansploitation thing.

Anyone have recs for movies that capture that kinda Bukowski-esque vibe like Rumblefish or Down By Law? Deep cuts appreciated but all suggestions are welcome

Deep cuts appreciated but all suggestions are welcome I'm assuming you've already seen Barfly. Factotum can be skipped, it's much too slick and Matt Dillon looks like a pretty boy masquerading as a wino compared to Mickey Rourke in Barfly, who looks like a loving bum. One dark horse option is My Own Private Idaho.
