Plot

In Venice, Italy, John Bridger (Donald Sutherland) calls his daughter Stella Bridger (Charlize Theron) and tells her that he is participating in what will be his final heist. John then meets up with Charlie Croker (Mark Wahlberg) before setting the heist into motion. Their team consists of themselves and four others: an “inside man”, a get away driver, an explosives expert and a technical expert. The heist is a success, but one of them, Steve, betrays them all by taking the gold for himself; he also kills john Bridger and leaves the rest of the team for dead.
A year later back in the United States, Stella is using her safecracking expertise to break into vaults as an assistant to the police. The team has tracked Steve down, and Charlie recruits Stella to participate with the team in stealing the gold from Steve since she has the required skill and motivation.
The team travels to Los Angeles, California to begin their surveillance of Steve's house and plan the heist. Meanwhile, Steve attempts to sell his gold through a money launderer, but kills him when the launderer begins asking questions about the source of the gold. However, the money launderer is a cousin of a local Ukrainian gangster, who seeks vengeance for his cousin's murder.
Stella has a lot of problems to deal with…
