Plot Summary

Joe, Willie, and Albert are senior citizens and lifelong friends in Brooklyn. During an unpleasant appointment at the bank, Joe witnesses a robbery in progress carried out by three individuals wearing masks. During the robbery, Joe notices the leader bearing a Mongol warrior tattoo on his neck, the only lead that could help the police identify the culprit. The man sympathises with Joe when he finds out about his current financial situation brought on by the bank. The robbers escape with over $1.6 million. When the company where the trio worked is bought out, their pensions become a casualty of the restructuring.

Joe is hit particularly hard and finds out that he, his daughter Rachel and granddaughter Brooklyn, will be homeless in less than thirty days as his mortgage payments unfairly increased and his pension stopped coming in. Willie finds out he is terminally ill from kidney failure and needs a transplant. He is even more frustrated because his financial situation forces him into a long-distance relationship with his daughter and granddaughter. Inspired by experiencing the robbery, Joe originates the idea to rob the bank, restructuring their pension funds and taking back what is rightfully theirs. At first, Albert and Willie are appalled, but eventually agree when they later learn that their bank intends to steal their pensions.

Trying to shoplift some items from a grocery store, where Albert’s love interest Annie works, results in a comic disaster. So, the trio turn to Joe’s former son-in-law, Peter Murphy, and professional criminal and pet store owner Jesús to teach them the ropes. They plan on using their lodge’s carnival as a cover. Joe, Willie, and Albert disguise themselves as “The Rat Pack” and use guns with blanks so no one gets hurt. The robbery almost goes awry when Willie collapses briefly, and Lucy.
