I’ve been to see it, it’s worth going. The pieces are stunning, incredible artistry and workmanship. Not to mention the awe of how much $$$ it must all be worth! But yes, I can see the movie plot unfolding too! (I assume they will enter as normal, wait until the gallery closes, change into slinky black jumpsuits and dance through the lasers. Some tech genius will be hiding in an air duct to unlock the front door and cancel any alarms so the thief then just walk out and blends in with the crowd)

I'm thinking classic fake-out. Someone does an obvious bungle trying to steal them and the rest of the crew scoop them up when the jewelry is being moved to another location
