Synopsis

Andy, an overextended broker lures his younger brother, Hank into a larcenous scheme: the pair will rob a suburban mom-and-pop jewelry store that appears to be the quintessential easy target. The problem is, the store owners are Andy and Hank’s actual mom and pop and, when the seemingly perfect crime goes awry, the damage lands right at their doorstep. Hoffman’s trophy wife is having a clandestine affair with Hawke, and the family patriarch pursues justice at all costs, completely unaware that the culprits he is hunting are his own sons.
