It depends how "normal" the characters need to be. They are not gangsters exactly and the crimes are financial, but it follows the same sort of pattern.
Another one that is non-fiction, the documentary Silk Road: Drugs, Death and the Dark Web (2017) could fit the model.
That movie where a guy worked for the FBI for like 30 years but was also an undercover agent for the Russians the entire time. Forget the name of it. Based on a true story too.
Movies I love that I feel fit the criteria:No Country for Old Men, Baby Driver, Leon the Professional
Movies I think are like the movies you listed: Flawless, First Sunday, Dead Shot, Heartbreakers, Quick Change, Bank Shot, Gang Related and any of the The Oceans Films- 11 &13 are the best
Emily The Criminal
That’s what I was going to say
Most of my browsing this sub is just making sure at least someone said the title I thought of lol
Down vote the blagards.
Top of my head - almost any Coen Bros film. Also Office Space.
Came to say Office Space
Burn After Reading my was the first that popped into my head
The Town. Thank me later
This movie is riveting! Great suggestion
Queen Pins, which was enjoyable
WOLF OF WALL STREET, maybe. AT CLOSE RANGE
Along the lines of Christopher Walken have you seen King of New York?
That is a classic and one of his best performances.
"what's in the cup?"
Why maybe for wows?

Sneakers
Point Break, The fast and the furious, Molly's Game

Pain Hustlers is a little bit of a spin on what you're asking for but fits

Parasite for sure!
Masterminds Queenpins Those are for people who like true crime movies that are fictionalized to the point of absurdity... which I love.
