Contraband (2012)
Film Synopsis (from the studio): Set in New Orleans, this action thriller stars Mark Wahlberg as Chris Farraday, who long ago abandoned his life of crime. But after his brother-in-law, Andy (Caleb Landry Jones), botches a drug deal for his ruthless boss, Tim Briggs (Giovanni Ribisi), Chris is forced back into doing what he does best — running contraband — to settle Andy's debt.
Chris is a legendary smuggler and quickly assembles a crew with the help of his best friend, Sebastian (Ben Foster), to head to Panama and return with millions in counterfeit bills. Things quickly fall apart and with only hours to reach the cash, Chris must use his rusty skills to successfully navigate a treacherous criminal network of brutal drug lords, cops and hit men before his wife, Kate (Kate Beckinsale), and sons become their target.
Based on the 2008 Icelandic film ReykjavÃk-Rotterdam, which was written by crime novelist Arnaldur Indriðason and Óskar Jónasson, Contraband is directed by Baltasar Kormákur, who also starred in the original. Rated R, the film runs for 109 minutes.
