Parker (Jason Statham) is an infamous figure in the criminal fraternity. He is also a colleague of Pete (Nick Nolte), whose daughter, Amber (Alyshia Ochse), he is dating. For his latest job, Parker teams up with four others, and their plan is to rob a bank for a bounty of $1 million. The heist is a success, but then the head honcho tells Parker he wants him to reinvest his $200K share in another robbery, this time to steal millions of dollars of priceless jewels. Parker refuses, so he is shot and left for dead by the side of the road. His body is discovered, he survives his injuries, and he quickly plans his revenge. He is going to hijack the jewels himself, once they have been stolen by the men who betrayed him. He travels to Florida where he meets Leslie, (Jennifer Lopez), a local Realtor, who becomes his partner in crime.
There are a bevy of characters in this film who pop in and then get quickly dispatched, apparently for no better reason than so Parker can move onto his next conquest. The love interest, Amber, seems to be there just because Parker needs to have a girlfriend, and she becomes story baggage once Lopez makes her appearance......
