Plot summary
Jim Davis (Christian Bale) is an ex-Army Ranger recently honorably discharged from the military due to reasons not mentioned. He suffers from extreme post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) over the killing and horrors of his combat tours in which he took part with a savage aggressiveness towards the enemy.
Jim has a Mexican girlfriend, Marta (Tammy Trull), whom he is determined to marry, and bring into the United States to start a life together. With this in mind, Jim returns to Los Angeles.
In L.A. he meets up with his best friend Mike Alonzo (Freddy Rodriguez); the two consider each other brothers. Mike is feeling pressure from his longtime girlfriend, Sylvia (Eva Longoria), a young attorney, to get a job after losing his previous position due to outsourcing. After being denied a position in the Los Angeles Police Department for failing the LAPD psychological profile, Jim's frustration takes over and he rebounds to stealing and selling marijuana and handguns. He convinces Mike to join him in this liberating atmosphere and both of them make some quick bucks and a few enemies.
