American Heist Overview
Hoping to get a small business started, James (Hayden Christensen), a young man with a troubled past, can't get a loan. His brother Frankie (Adrien Brody), who still lives the life of a criminal, introduces James to his new friends. They trick him into being the driver while they pull of a heist without his knowledge.
Now that James is involved, albeit inadvertently, Frankie's criminal accomplices threaten to expose him and harm his loved ones unless he joins them in a high-stakes bank robbery.
