The plot is intriguing, and the shooting scene is fierce. It feels more exciting than "The Line of Fire"...
The following spoilers are very serious:
Los Angeles, USA, known as the World Bank Robbery Capital, a bank robbery occurs every 48 minutes...
At around 5 o’clock that morning, in the Gardena area of South Los Angeles, Ray Merliman took Downey, Marcus, Bosque and others to rob an armored money transport vehicle, while the bearded hacker Mark was monitoring the police car on the network. (Remember, this hacker is actually Downey’s secret gang)...
Immediately, the Meliman group had a fierce exchange of fire with the approaching police, and Marcus was shot and killed. After several police officers were killed, Meliman and others drove the stolen armored money carrier under the guidance of the hacker Mark. Successfully escaped...
County Police Detective Nick Flanagan’s all night gangsters caused his wife Debbie to leave with their two daughters... Then, Nick received information about the case of the money truck being robbed...
Nick rushed to the scene and learned the general situation of the case through his colleague Benny Bolako's introduction, and learned that the stolen money transport truck was an empty one... In the distance, Bosque sent by Meliman was watching here. , Take pictures of Nick and others...
According to Bosque’s photos, Meliman determined that it was Nick Flanagan who was investigating the case, and he knew him and his enemy...
At the county police station, Nick and his officers discussed the robber's motives for stealing the empty car, and explored why the robber knew that the Federal Bank was transporting money to the stadium and gambling hall in the previous case, and initially guessed that the Federal Bank had leaked secrets. A police officer speculated that Meliman was committing the crime because he was released from prison before August. Nick immediately decided to go to the bar to visit Downey, who had been close to Meliman (remember, this Downey was the leader of the black gang who was in the middle of the game)...
Nick did not play his cards as usual, knocked Downey out of get off work, and kidnapped Downey...In the secret room, Nick violently extorted a confession, and Downey had to tell the truth. He was hired as a driver by the Melliman gang because of his good car skills. He also participated in the robbery of the stadium and casino, but the money looted did not divide the stolen money. According to Meliman, he wanted to use the money to fish more money, but he did not tell him the specific action...
Downey’s lie convinced Nick initially, so he released Downey... After that, Nick received Marcus’ fingerprints at the scene of the crime and further believed Downey’s confession; because Laver had been with Meliman A team played football and also served in the military, so it is concluded that Laval is also a member of its gang...
On the other side, Meliman drove Bosque, Laver, and Downey to the Los Angeles branch of the Federal Bank, and told about the next mission plan, which is to rob the 300 million yuan in the Federal Bank’s coffers. The method is to use The stolen money transport truck, fake money transport security personnel mixed into the Commonwealth Bank...
Back in the garage, Meliman talked about the specific implementation plan: the money transported by each bank headquarters to the branch must be transported by the banknote truck to the Federal Reserve for banknote counting. There are two purposes: one is to verify the amount of money and record the amount of each banknote. Code; the other is to select the used banknotes for destruction, and the codes of the used banknotes are also deleted from the database at the same time; but in the past four months, there has been a blind spot in the power supply system of the Commonwealth Bank, and they have no backup power; once In the event of a power outage, the paper shredder in the money counter room will stop working, and the camera in the corridor will also fail. However, the camera in the money counter has a spare battery and needs an electromagnetic pulser to interfere with its work; therefore, as long as there is a two-minute power outage manually , You can take the opportunity to steal 300 million waste banknotes...
The first step of the plan was that Downey went to a Chinese restaurant near the Commonwealth Bank as a food delivery man, and delivered meals to two female employees in the bank on time at noon every day. Pay attention to these two black female employees, including Sharon (pictured on the left below) The fat one is a member of Downey’s gang, who told Downey about the inside story of the bank’s operation...
Downey took an extra snack this time and hid it on the ceiling of the bathroom...
This time, Downey’s food delivery was under the supervision of Nick and his team, but Nick did not find any mistakes or omissions by the Fed. He thought of Meliman’s stolen money truck, and felt that Downey was not telling the truth...
So, in public, Nick deliberately got close to Downey in front of Meliman to expose his identity... At night, Downey was interrogated by Meliman, but Downey escaped the disaster by chance...
Meliman deliberately let Downey give Nick, saying that the action would be launched on Friday... In order to clarify the specific content of the action, Nick asked Holly, Meliman's mistress, to obtain information. Unexpectedly, Meliman was trapped by Meliman. It's false information...
On Friday, according to the false information provided by Holly, Nick set up an ambush outside the Pico Rivera Bank in advance... and Meliman led the gang as expected. However, Meliman robbed Pico Rivera this time. The bank has two purposes: one is to hit the west and attract the Los Angeles police force to this point and keep it away from the real target of the Commonwealth Bank; second, it may not have enough money in its hands, and it needs to take the opportunity to rob this bank to obtain enough money. The money is pretending to be a banknote transporter...
Originally, Nick planned to wait for the other party to grab the money and implement the arrest. Unexpectedly, after Meliman held a large number of hostages, he deliberately asked the bank manager to call the FBI and other police to attract the police. For a while, the place was chaotic and Nick was also caught by the other party. The unusual behavior is confused...
When the teachers were moving outside, Meliman opened the underground drainage channel by blasting inside the bank, and slipped away with the money from the robbery... It was too late for Nick to get over.
On the other hand, the hacker Mark intercepted a call from the headquarters of Pico Rivera Bank to the Federal Reserve based on the information on the Fed’s deposit slip in the banknote truck, saying that the bank would ship a batch of banknotes at 2pm next Wednesday on the 18th...
Then, Mark dialed the Fed again, claiming to be Alameda who had just spoken on the phone, falsely claiming that he had forgotten the time for the money delivery, and then changed the time for the money delivery to today, which is Friday, 2:45 pm...
Then, Meliman and Laver, who escaped from the Pico Rivera bank branch, changed their clothes and drove into the Fed branch in a modified cash transport truck... Because of Mark's ingenious hands and feet, Meliman successfully mixed into the Fed. ...
And Bosque pretends to be a power maintenance worker, preparing to cut off the Fed's power... and Downey hides in the cash box, waiting for Bosque to cut the power...
When it was ready, Bosque cut off the power and the shredder stopped working. The cash counter had to leave the room and wait for the power to recover. Taking advantage of this, Downey turned out the box and turned on the electromagnetic pulse jammer to disable the camera, and then quickly stole the undestroyed ones. Waste banknotes, throw the bag full of used banknotes from the destruction channel into the trash can downstairs...Before the power was restored, Downey completed all the work, and then went into the ventilation shaft to escape...
After the banknote counter returned, because there was no person hiding in the box, the natural money looked a lot less, but after the banknote count, it was found that the amount of money was 712,200 U.S. dollars as recorded on the receipt, and he was confused. NS……
The trash can with all his money bags will definitely be taken away by the garbage worker. See the picture below. This garbage worker and the garbage worker who drove are both members of the Downey black-eating gang. The two will show their faces at the end of the film. Naturally, these two people know There is real money in that trash can...
According to the map, Downey climbed through the ventilation channel to the restroom where the fast food was hidden in advance, took out the fast food, put on the pass, and delivered meals to the bank clerk Sharon... Then Downey went through the security check at the gate without any surprises. , Escaped smoothly...
But Bosque was waiting at the exit in advance, and when the garbage truck came out, he quickly followed (remember, the garbage workers are Downey’s black-eating gang, and the garbage truck that came out in advance must be fake money bags) and notify Meliman. Walk towards, quickly intercept and take away the garbage truck...
Downey was unlucky. He was about to rendezvous with Mark on the road. Nick was chased by Nick, caught in the car and beaten up. Downey pretended to be forced to tell that the place where he and Meliman met was the South Gate Junkyard... Mark then notified Meliman of Downey’s arrest. Therefore, Meliman and the team had no time to open the purse to check, put them in the car and evacuated quickly...
Nick, Tony, Gus, Benny Bolako, and Murff followed after Meliman. They encountered a traffic jam on the road, so the two sides started a gun battle...
Meliman set up a squad of machine guns, and the strong firepower quickly caused Benny Bolako to be shot and hanged...
But four on three, the police dominated. Bosque and Laval opened up. Meliman escaped alone. Finally, he was hit and injured by Nick, who was chasing after him. , Until the death of the three of them, it is not clear that they were hacked and the money they carried was fake...
Nick returned to his car and found that Downey opened the handcuffs and ran away. What made Nick even more annoyed was that the so-called stolen money in the black tape turned out to be pieces of paper. Faced with the robbers either died or escaped, Nick looked helpless. ...
Without a clue, Nick came back to the bar where Downey worked and saw the photos of Downey’s team on the wall, seemingly enlightened...
In the end, the plot reverses, a bar in London, the black gangs all appear on stage, see the picture below...
Originally, Downey found Meliman to rob the Fed together, but Meliman asked to use his own people to participate; and the internal information of the Federal Reserve that Downey obtained was all provided by the bank employee Sharon and two garbage workers... …
However, Downey was not satisfied with this, and looked at the diamond exchange on the opposite side again...I am looking forward to the sequel "Thief's Nest 2"...
