After a successful last score, a master thief (Brosnan) retires to an island paradise. His lifelong nemesis, a crafty FBI agent, washes ashore to ensure he's making good on his promise. The pair soon enters into a new game of cat-and-mouse.
Two master thieves (Brosnan and Hayek) are finally retiring after one last succesful mission. Residing in their own tropical paradise, their old nemesis, FBI Agent Stan P. Lloyd shows up to make sure they really are retired. Docked in the port is a ocean liner called the "Diamond Cruise" and Stan is convinced that they're not really retired at all, and that this is the next set up. While Lola(Hayek) is busy settling into their new life and trying to find ways to keep busy, Max(Brosnan) is contemplating whether or not to steal the diamond. Now the question is, will he? Will Stan finally catch him after eight years of chasing him? Will Lola help Max steal it? And what of that shady character that has told Max he must steal the diamond for him?
This film is about a couple of retired jewel thieves and an FBI agent who is destined to catch them. While beginning their retirement, Max Burdett (Brosnan) and Lola Cirillo (Hayek) they are met by FBI agent Stanley Loyd (Harrelson), who was made a fool by the thieves after they stole a rare jewel that was handcuffed to his wrist. Believing that the thieves aren't really there to retire, he begins to watch them because a Diamond Cruise off the coast off the island where they are staying has the Napoleon number three diamond on the ship. When questioned, Burdett doesn't seem to know anything about the diamond, but when he is propositioned by a wealthy tycoon, Burdett cannot refuse to steal the diamond. So, Burdett sets off on a plan to steal the diamond, but can he steal it right under the nose of Loyd again?
