Piper (Laurence Fishburne) and Dodge (Stephen Baldwin) are escaped convicts on the run from the mob and the police. Strangers handcuffed together, their prison work detail was interrupted by a sudden hail of bullets that put them on the run.

Dodge is a smart-mouthed computer hacker doing Federal time for using his computer to steal millions from a Cuban crime syndicate. Besides the money, he downloaded enough evidence to bring down their empire. Now the Cubans want their money and the disk. The authorities are willing to settle for just the disk. The two just may stay alive if they can retrieve the stash of stolen money and the incriminating computer disk before Federal Marshalls or the Cuban mafia catch up with them
