The four have a flawless plan figured out: they want to exploit the gift of Eddy by together in to put on a match of him. But he does not play at anyone, he wants to play at Harry Lonsdale where the bet amounts to roughly 100,000 pounds per player. The four friends throwing £ 25,000 each to bring the money together to Eddy. They really believe in, because Eddy has one great advantage, he can very well read comments, even the smallest reduction in the size of the pupils he takes true.

Harry has two main accomplices: Big Chris and Barry the Baptists. Chris regulates the onafgeloste financial matters of Harry, he very, and it goes there often intense, but by his word choice often let him see that he has a much higher IQ than that he actually at his job needs. Barry controls especially the paperwork of Harry, he makes sure that everyone paid on time and scares them not that heavy handed to make it clear.

His boss's Barry has been ordered to steal two valuable, antique guns at a Lord. For this task he hires two knuckleheads in which steal all modern weapons from the gun Cabinet. At this intrusion, they are shot at by the owner of the castle with the one of the two antique rifles. Since they were instructed to steal the weapons off the shelf, they take that and sell them to Nick the Greek.

With the £ 100,000 in a large bag is Eddy to Harry. Long time it seems that their plan effective turns out to be successful. When prices go down in the height of course wants to continue playing, but Eddy he lends money at Harry. Everything is of course set up game, because in the next room is Barry who are using cameras in his cards and passes the data to his boss looks. He loses and leaves the bar, but not before he was by Barry well drummed into that when not on time paying severe penalties will follow.

Meanwhile in the House next to that of Eddy RAM RAID on a drugs prepared a large nursery, where they take it to the security and seems pretty lax thinking that no one wants to do something evil. Eddy captures by the plaster walls of the conversation and install something on there is a microphone so they can listen. The four in their chance to see the money they still owe Harry to steal the gang and they decide to wait for them when they come home. Thereupon they call Nick the Greek, because of course they should loose the drugs and they also have weapons and that can deliver or Nick. Of course prove this to be the two antique rifles.

Everything degenerates into a surprising plot, the four become friends even deeper in trouble, if they then all could hit even further. The film concludes with a whole range of shooting scenes, yet knives. The film takes some surprising twists, but if everything ends well the question remains. Big Chris is going with the money. The guys have only the two antique weapons and assume that they are worth a penny more and send one of them out to throw their arms in the river. Big Chris finds the boys back on and gives them the bag back, only without the money in it. However, when they look further, it appears to be a catalog. After brief leaves they discover that the two arms, which was believed they were worthless, per piece 250,000 British pounds worth. In total despair they try to call, while he just yet the Kalay weapons over the railing throws. And in a twist of fate, however, the weapons remain on a ledge are. With great difficulty he tries it still possible the weapons to discharge in the water. However, at that moment the phone. How it turns out, one will never know. ==Division Of Roles[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == ==Background<span class="mw-editsection" len="355" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == ===Soundtrack<span class="mw-editsection" len="354" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] === <p style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:22.3999996185303px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">The soundtrack was released by Island Records.
