While the acting isn't too bad and the action scenes are shockingly good. The plot is just all over the place. First these ragtag group of boys decide to rob this rich family. Then things go south and they end up taking them hostage and knock the dad unconscious. Then Bruce Willis shows up but hands over the negotiations to the professionals. But his family gets taken hostage by people who have their money caught up with the dad of the family who's being held hostage by the band of kids. So Bruce is blackmailed into getting their money out of the house. So he takes command back, goes double agent... and from there plot just collapses into craziness. One of the ragtag boys is a psycho and goes crazy, killing the other boys and torching the house. Bruce gets the unconscious dad out of the house at some point and fakes everyone into thinking he's dead?? Even the cops he's working with? Fake
FBI show up to find the money and get killed by the psycho kid ... then Bruce saves the kids from the first hostage house and takes the dad with him to go get his family. So the dad and Bruce end up killing the bad guys to save his family. It's just a whole bloody mess.
