Based on the best-selling novel Caught Stealing by Charlie Huston, Wilson plays Hank Thompson, once a hotshot baseball prospect, now a going nowhere bartender, who mistakenly gets caught up in a bloody treasure hunt through New York City. It turns out that the cat Hank's neighbor left in his care is sitting on a secret. Hidden at the bottom of its cage is a key wanted by a sadistic cop, Russian mobsters, a Samoan hit man, and a pair of psycho brothers all willing to do whatever it takes to find a jackpot of money.
