Five suspects with previous convictions were brought together by the police for criminal identification. These five people were very dissatisfied with the fact that the American police were under pressure to solve the case and used themselves to commit crimes. Four of them wanted to make a deal and make a business. Also teach the police a lesson, but one of them, Keaton doesn't want to do it, because he has already washed his hands, and now has a lawyer wife who has become a so-called upper class person. So the five dispersed.

Among the five was Gint, a cripple, who wanted to do that business, but as far as he was concerned, the others would not let him join, so Gint came to persuade Keaton. At this time, Keaton, whose life was unsatisfactory, agreed to join, but he must follow his principles, that is, no murder.

So the five started their first mission, renting out the police officers who were making secret deals. The mission was successful, and a large number of police were arrested, and the five also successfully handed in the mission. But the employer throws out a very attractive task. After completing this task, the rest of your life will be free of food and clothing.

Keaton refused at first, but then couldn't resist the temptation and decided to finish the vote.

The five started the second mission, but in this mission, some accidents happened. It was supposed to have drugs and money, and the money belonged to them, but the money didn't, and because of the target's resistance, the five had to be killed. Target.

They felt that they had been tricked, so they came to the person who issued the task to settle the account, but learned that the person who issued the task was a person named Caesar. Moreover, Caesar has already targeted these five people. From the time they entered the police station for identification, they began to make arrangements. Let these five people get to the present step by step. Caesar asked five people to perform an ultimate mission. This mission is very dangerous. The chances of surviving are slim.

The five wanted to resist, but Caesar showed that he couldn't be resisted, first turning the bottom of the five, and then killing one of the people who wanted to escape. When Keaton said that he didn't believe in Caesar and led the crowd to kill the lawyer Xiaolin who issued the mission, he found that his wife had been controlled, and the important people of several other people had also been controlled. At this point, the five people have fully understood that they cannot escape the clutches of Caesar, and they must carry out this task.

In the final mission, the remaining four, only Gint survived, and the others were killed by Caesar, and the goal of this mission was not a drug syndicate. Caesar wanted to kill the only witness on board who could accuse him.

So far, the story about the criminal group and about Caesar is finished. But in the end gave a blow reverse. When the police plausibly deduced that Kit was Caesar, they let go of the real Caesar, Jint.

Movies are two timelines staggered to tell a story. Now the timeline, the ultimate mission has been carried out, there is one survivor of the crew, and Gint is left, and the two are telling what happened. Past Timeline, the events of the past as told by Gint.

The wonderful thing is that for the first time, the foreshadowing of Caesar was spoken through the mouth of the surviving crew member. The second is the reversal. The reversal is based on the fact that the author of the film first seduced everyone to believe a fact, and then overturned it. Inversion one is that in Gint's story, through the agent, the audience is led to believe that Keaton is Caesar. Second, in the end, it was reversed, Gint was Caesar, he disguised himself, made up a story, and deceived the detective.
