 When the Federal Gold Reserve
is broken into by a criminal mastermind (Hutchison), the chief
investigator (Morse) uses human "bait" (Jamie Foxx)
to lure him out into the open.
Forty-two million in gold has been stolen from the Federal
Reserve and only one of the thieves was caught. To catch the
mastermind behind the heist of the decade, the U.S. Treasury
Department is going to need fresh bait. JAMIE FOXX, star of the
hit action drama "Any Given Sunday" and acclaimed for
his work on "The Jamie Foxx Show" and "In Living
Color," stars as Alvin Sanders, a down-on-his-luck thief
whose fortune is about to change for the worse. Landing in jail
for a petty theft crime, Alvin finds himself sharing a cell with
John Jaster (ROBERT PASTORELLI), the incarcerated half of the
pair of high-tech thieves responsible for the missing gold. His
partner, Bristol (DOUG HUTCHISON), is still at large. Alvin wants
only to get out of prison and start fresh with his girlfriend,
Lisa (Kimberly Elise), and when the Feds, led by U.S. Treasury
investigator Clenteen (DAVID MORSE), set him loose on a sketchy
deal, he thinks his luck has finally changed. Alvin has his freedom
and the Feds have found their bait.
