Movie Description
A suave, reformed hit man who never killed anybody is forced into just one more job when his former boss gives him an offer he can't refuse. Though he just met the girl of his dreams he acquiesces and gets his rag-tag team together, but they botch the job and incur the wrath of the boss, who sets an actual killer on their trail. A blackly comedic suspense thriller.
Synopsis
Jimmy is a likeable, silver-tongued ex-gangster. Although he's no longer a criminal, his former crime boss asks him to threaten a young man, so that he won't come to Denver. Since the money's good, Jimmy agrees, and contacts his old gang of eccentric characters for help. But when the guys attempt to carry out their plan, things go seriously wrong -- and suddenly Jimmy and company find themselves marked for death...
