Beck (The Rock) is a professional bag man who chooses not to use guns in his work due to a previous bad experience. He is hired by his boss, Walker, to go to get Walker’s son, Travis (Sean William Scott), from the Amazon jungle. Beck wants out of the business, and Walker agrees to make this his last job before Beck retires and opens his own restaurant. He heads down to the small South American town of “Helldorado” to find Travis and retrieve him from the mess he is in. The town is run by Hatcher (Christopher Walken) who owns the town and the people cannot afford not to work for him due to his monopoly.
