Leonardo DiCaprio in Inception as the dream collapses
Great characters in movies can belong to all sorts of professions. There are blue-collar worker characters, there are writer characters, and—of course—there are criminals. These can be some of the most interesting of the bunch, making for compelling crime films that evaluate the complexities of morality and the deeply human nuances of something like, for instance, theft.
This gripping tale of violence and redemption broke new ground and started a trend of multi-narrative films that took quite a while to slow down. All of its characters are engaging, but the diner thieves in particular—codenamed Pumpkin and Honey Bunny—are among the film's most memorable. There's a good reason why the film opens with them.
Romantic, uplifting, and full of enchanting magic, Aladdin is one of Disney's most beautiful animated classics. The protagonist is one of the most charming and well-written princes in the House of Mouse's library, with surprising moral ambiguities that make him a much more complex character than one may think. But though he's a slippery thief at the beginning of the film, his journey of growth is one that's nothing if not entertaining.
Bilbo is more of a burglar than a thief, really , but semantics don't matter much when a particular shiny object he steals becomes the pivotal event that kicks off the beginning of the end of Middle-earth's Third Age. Courageous, yet vulnerable; kind, yet imperfect; and played tremendously well by Martin Freeman at the top of his game, Bilbo is the perfect protagonist for such an entertaining series of films.
