Thief (2006)

EndedScripted showDrama, Crime

Thief focuses on a crew of thieves led by Nick Atwater who find themselves in profound danger and at a moral crossroads. It also follows the unlikely father-daughter relationship between Atwater and his 14-year-old stepdaughter, who forces him to confront the lies which have defined his carefully ordered world. While the crew tries to pull off the most dangerous heist of their career, stealing $40 million from the U.S. government earmarked for the war on drugs in South America, their lives are complicated by the guilt they feel at the murder of one of their own, a crooked cop looking to clean up his own image with a big takedown, and a terminally ill killer sent by the Chinese Mafia looking to settle a score of their own.
