本片是1972年电影的重拍片,原版是表现大盗道克·麦科伊本着一诺千金和言必信、行必果的职业行规闯荡江湖的不凡经历。1994年这个新版本中,突出了大盗的妻子卡罗尔的戏份,她不再是丈夫的附庸,更是一个舞枪弄棒的同案犯。为了不让丈夫坐牢,她可以不惜一切代价。例如,她得知这次承办的抢劫案难度极大,但由于条件是道克可以免去牢狱之灾,因此她决定知难而上。但是,当钱抢到手之后她才发觉,真正的风险并不在于抢劫行动,而在于从逃离现场那一刻开始……Doc McCoy is put in prison because his partners chickened out and flew off without him after exchanging a prisoner with a lot of money. Doc knows Jack Benyon, a rich "business"-man, is up to something big, so he tells his wife (Carol McCoy) to tell him that he's for sale if Benyon can get him out of prison. Benyon pulls some strings and Doc McCoy is released again. Unfortunately he has to cooperate with the same person that got him to prison.
