Stolen 2012

A reformed thief, Will Montgomery, emerges from an eight-year stint in prison following his involvement in the spectacular heist of $10 million from a bank. With a restless yearning to reconnect with his estranged daughter, Alison, whom he hasn’t seen during his incarceration, Will takes the first steps back into a life of familial bonds. However, fate takes a dark turn when his old criminal accomplice, Vincent, believed to have perished, resurfaces by kidnapping Alison and concealing her in the trunk of his taxicab while demanding the very ransom that most assume Will is still hiding.

Facing an impossible situation, Will is thrust back into the criminal underworld, as he must orchestrate yet another bank robbery—against the weight of the law, represented by detective Tim Harleno, who is hot on his trail after directly putting him behind bars in the first place. The robbery at the heart of Will’s past was already a subject of intense scrutiny, as the entire operation unfolded under the watchful eye of the FBI, even before Will stepped into the scene. Alongside him in his tumultuous past were his partners, including Riley, who had taken the reins of the getaway vehicle, and Hoyt, who managed the electronics.

As tensions rise during a chaotic robbery attempt, Vincent inadvertently injures himself amid a confrontation, leading Will to put aside their differences momentarily and rescue him. However, this act of camaraderie is cut short when Hoyt chooses to abandon the plan entirely, spurring Will to commandeer a police car in a desperate bid to escape from Tim’s grip. Unfortunately, his efforts to evade capture prove futile, and he finds himself arrested, despite the FBI’s inability to recover the stolen funds.

Upon his release, an encounter reawakens the strained relationship with Alison, who harbors feelings of anger and disappointment for her father’s absence. Soon after, Will reconnects with Riley, who expresses gratitude for his choices during their tumultuous past, reveling in the fact that he hadn’t implicated the entire crew. The unexpected turn leads to Vincent reaching out to Will post-kidnapping, eyeing the elusive $10 million. In a moment of desperation, Will fabricates a story about having destroyed the cash to dissuade Vincent, but when threats against Alison’s life escalate, he finds himself bargaining for time to raise the ransom.

As Will evades the ever-watchful eyes of the FBI, he seeks help from Tim but soon realizes the detective is oblivious to the truth about Vincent. The detective is led to believe that Vincent died in an accident, as only fragments remain of what was once him, including fingerprints taken from a dismembered leg. Vincent’s cunning plan to elude both law enforcement and his vengeful financiers becomes clearer with every passing moment.

Through ingenious tactics, Will hacks into the FBI’s network, tracing Hoyt’s location and discovering that he is, in fact, working for Vincent. A race against time ensues as Will must find a way to rescue Alison before it’s too late. He learns that she narrowly escaped after causing a diversion when Vincent was apprehended by the police. However, the danger looms larger as Vincent, in a chilling twist, regains control over the situation, administering heavy drugs to Alison.

Realizing he has limited options, Will seizes another cab, utilizing GPS to track down Vincent’s whereabouts. However, fate plays tricks on him yet again, as Vincent uses an alternate driver to mask his location, leaving Will in a dire situation. As Will devises yet another plan—this time with plans to rob a bank for a staggering $100 million in gold bars—Riley agrees to help, knowing that Alison’s safety hangs in the balance.

The daring duo concocts a scheme that involves breaching the bank through underground sewers, employing a blowtorch to penetrate the solid vault and access the glimmering gold. As alarms blare, the clock runs against them. With Tim and his team closing in, an unexpected twist leads the authorities to seize Riley, leaving Will’s fate tangled in uncertainty.

Vincent’s call to Will leads to a final confrontation at an unsettling amusement park, where the stakes soar higher. With the FBI coordinated at a nearby location, Vincent’s intentions turn sinister as he threatens to incinerate Alison. In a chaotic clash, amidst flames and fury, Will fights back, ultimately rescuing Alison but sustaining grave injuries in the process. As they escape the fiery chaos, the authorities finally arrive, leading to a bittersweet resolution.

With the gold partially recovered and the remnants of their harrowing ordeal lingering ominously, Will stumbles upon a final piece of the treasure hidden in Riley’s truck. Aware of the ever-watchful eyes of the law, Will feigns throwing it into the water, solidifying his escape from the sinuous grip of his criminal past while striving towards a change for the future.
