Full plot (contains spoilers)
Johnny Chicago is released from prison after ten years and immediately tries to get back to his criminal life. His colleague Chuck Moreno, by contrast, has a settled family life. Within a few days, Johnny manages to get his former partner Chuck fired and kicked out of his home, and to have his girlfriend arrested and locked up. At the same time, Johnny plans to rob a group of German retirees on a train. They want to smuggle their money from Germany to Luxembourg in plastic bags, and Johnny hopes the heist will make a name for him. Chuck is not enthusiastic, but his younger brother Coco is all fired up. The crooks see their chance and want to pull off the biggest score of all—but so do the German tax authorities.
