In the grand tradition of too-late sequels like The Two Jakes, Return to Las Vegas, and Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps Nic Cage returns as Rick Santoro, a justly incarcerated former Atlantic City Police Detective. Rick’s history of corruption and graft align well his new prison connections, and upon his release he sets up a Private Investigator shingle. It’s a far cry from the life an Atlantic City Police Detective; attending championship Boxing matches and being embroiled in international military espionage, but it is a living. When a short, ethnic dame with a stomach that won’t quit walks into his life, his world gets turned upside down. As Rick starts investigating a series of low-level dice robberies, a familiar thread begins to unravel – one that only Rick can see the connections to. Can Rick put the pieces together before or it is too late, or is he being setup to take the fall?
