About this listen

Sir Michael Caine - perhaps best known as gang leader Charlie Croker in 60s crime caper The Italian Job - tells the stories of remarkable heists and extraordinary robberies from around the world, as remembered by the masterminds, detectives, victims, journalists and witnesses that lived through them.

For more than 60 years, Caine has played thieves, criminals, gangsters and the detectives trying to catch them. But there's Hollywood and then there's real life... and that's when things get really interesting.

From the largest bank burglary in American history, to the world's most audacious book heist, Heist with Michael Caine travels to America, Australia, Stockholm, Antwerp and everywhere in-between to tell true stories behind the world's most daring heists.

So very interesting to hear about some of the most famous heists in the world, especially as told by the robbers themselves. How they were executed and why they were caught....but not always with the money !! Micheal Cain was the perfect narrator 😊

Fascinating

Some interesting interviews with both law enforcement and perpetrators of audacious robberies. Michael Caine gets 5 stars from me for most of the things he has done over the years, but his narration of this is excellent.

Perfect narration for a documentary which neither glamourises or judges the motives of the people involved in perpetrating these crimes. It deals with the methods and techniques of the crimes and in the final episode with the ways that are tried to foil them. Absolutely loved Michael Caine's voice for this, it was perfect .

Michael Caine is a great storyteller

Michael Caine brilliantly tells the story of various heists. From the first episode, the story comes to life and we are introduced to the employees who find the evidence of robbery, the police and investigators, and also the perpetrators. This is riveting stuff, well read, written and produced.

Highly recommended.
