Jack Stanfield (Harrison Ford) works in security in a large bank. He and his family, his wife Beth (Virginia Madsen) and kids, Sarah and Andy (Carly Schroeder and Jimmy Bennett) are held hostage by a group of thieves intent on stealing $10,000 from 10,000 richest customers. The thieves have studied the family for some time, opening a gambling account in Jack's name and a bill of $85,000. The thieves are very treacherous. They are lead by Bill Cox (Paul Bettany). Jack's coworker, Harry Romano (Robert Forster) introduced Jack and Cox. His boss is Arlin Fiorester (Alan Arkin). His assistant is Janet Stone (Mary Lynn Rajskub). They control Jack by threatening his family. They try to get away but fail. Stanfield is forced to help them get the money, erase tapes and allow cox into sensitive areas. They also set him up as a jealous husband, making his wife record that he is leaving for Romano. Cox visits Romano and murders him using Stanfield's gun.
However Stanfield is able to do a double cross, having taken a picture of the account numbers where the money went. He recruits Stone to help him. The family after the operation was being taken to a rural area for their murder. Stanfield overwhelmed the man sent to kill him and iill hi instead. He lets Cox know his money is gone and won't come back until he gets his family. The family is still alive, and the dog with a gps tracking device is with them. Consequently they are able to track them.
This movie is very good. The fighting at the end had me really riled up. Very exciting. They bad guys are easily hated. None of them would help the family as they were all committed. When asked why you hate us the answer is, we don't, we just don't care about you.
