Criminal Activities

Four individuals come together and decide to trust a venture capital scheme that promises substantial returns. Lured by the potential of quick wealth, they take a leap of faith, borrowing money to invest in the scheme.

Despite realizing that the investment opportunity involves insider trading, the group chooses to overlook the ethical implications. As the cash begins to flow in, they become increasingly enamored with the luxurious lifestyle it affords them.

Their newfound fortune shatters when the company they invested in collapses, facing a federal investigation. The dream they were living quickly turns into a nightmare as they grapple with the consequences of their decisions.

The group's financier, Eddie, played by John Travolta, unveils his true colors as a ruthless mobster. Faced with mounting debt and few options, the group is thrust into a dangerous new reality.

Eddie proposes a risky solution: the group must kidnap a man and hold him captive for 24 hours. They believe this plan could relieve them of their severe financial burden and allow for a peaceful exit.

Once they have their victim, they begin to realize that he is connected to a powerful mob boss. This revelation complicates their plan significantly, as the mob boss is willing to pay a two-million-dollar reward for his safe return.

Just as the group thinks they have the situation under control, they receive a horrifying instruction from Eddie: each must kill the hostage before leaving the building. This drastic shift elevates the stakes beyond what they ever anticipated.

As the pressure mounts, the group is faced with intense moral dilemmas. Each member struggles with the thought of committing murder, questioning their choices and the price of their greed.

Falling deeper into chaos, the situation spirals out of control as unforeseen events unfold. Trust within the group begins to fracture as desperation sets in, and loyalties are tested.

The group’s final decision leads to a tense confrontation with Eddie and the mobsters. It becomes a fight for survival as they realize that not only their money but their lives are on the line.

In the aftermath of their actions, the consequences of their greed become starkly clear. Each character must face the reality of what they’ve done and determine if they can ever return from the brink.

The film culminates in a tense climax where the group must decide whether to fight their way out or capitulate to Eddie's demands. Their choices will determine not only their fates but also their moral standing.
