Nicolas Cage stars in this action thriller directed by Paco Cabezas. Paul Maguire (Cage) is a criminal who, with the help of his friends Kane and Danny (Max Ryan and Michael McGrady), steals a briefcase full of money from a Russian mobster. Realising that the mob would come after the money, the men decide to hide it away and meet up five years later to divide it up. Five years on and Paul, Kane and Danny meet as promised to split the proceeds of their last job together. As Paul has become fully reformed living a normal life as a doting husband and father, he prepares to go to a charity dinner with his wife, leaving his daughter at home with friends. When Detective St. John (Danny Glover) informs him that his daughter has been kidnapped, Paul ignores the police's efforts and decides to seek revenge his own way.

'Psycho' meets 'Hotel California' horror in which a young couple are trapped, awaiting their fate. For young couple Amy and David Fox (Kate Beckinsale and Luke Wilson), a long day bickering in their car suddenly gets much worse when they break down in the middle of nowhere. Luckily for them they find a motel and settle down to watch some TV. Concern rises when they realise the 'snuff' movies the motel thoughtfully supply for their guests seem vaguely familiar. Discovering hidden cameras, they realise that they are about to star in the performance of their lives, or rather the end of it, unless they can somehow escape.
