MOVIE DECISION GUIDE
CAST & DIRECTOR
Directed by F. Gary Gray. With Mark Wahlberg, Charlize Theron, Edward Norton.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT
Charlie Croker pulled off the crime of a lifetime. The one thing that he didn't plan on was being double-crossed. Along with a drop-dead gorgeous safecracker, Croker and his team take off to re-steal the loot and end up in a pulse-pounding, pedal-to-the-metal chase that careens up, down, above and below the streets of Los Angeles.
