Plot
Russell Pierce, a grumpy armored truck driver nearing retirement, is paired with the enthusiastic but clueless rookie Travis Stolly. During a routine cash pickup, Travis is seduced into leaking work details by criminal mastermind Zoe, leading to an elaborate heist plan. As Zoe hijacks their armored vehicle and pursues $60 million from a casino, Russell and Travis are forced into a chaotic survival scenario. With ambitious criminals in hot pursuit, hostages taken, and escalating police involvement, the duo must navigate betrayal, loyalty, and absurd circumstances. In the end, Travis becomes deputy sheriff while Russell retires to run a bed and breakfast—though the chaos of their past still echoes.
