In an unnamed dark and rainy American city, a dry cleaner calls on two losers - a wannabe wiseguy and an Australian junkie - fresh out of prison to rob an illegal poker game. Once the job is done, the organizer of the game, a mafia underling, is severely beaten because the mob suspects him of heisting their game. The mob bosses' lawyer then hires a hit man named Cogan (Brad Pitt) to find and eliminate the robbers...

After the excellent Brad Pitt who best sums up the situation in what's sure to become a cult tagline: "America is not a country, it's a business."
