Kip Raines Giovanni Ribisi, an aspiring car thief in Los Angeles, has taken the offer of stealing fifty expensive cars for Raymond Calitri Christopher Eccleston, a British gangster, via Calitris associate, Atley Will Patton. Though Kip and his crew Mirror Man T.J Cros, Toby William Lee Scott, Tumbler Scott Caan and Freb James Duval nearly complete the job, their youthful antics lead the police to their warehouse where the cars have been stashed, and they barely escape capture. Detectives Castleback Delroy Lindo and Drycoff Timothy Olyphant seize the cars and begin an investigation.Calitri orders Kip kidnapped and threatens to kill him for failing. Atley contacts Kips older brother, Randall Memphis Raines Nicolas Cage, a former car thief but having gone straight years before, and explains Kips plight. Memphis attempts to negotiate for Kips release, but Calitri forces him to accept the same job Kip had, to steal fifty cars. Kip is turned over to Memphis, but Calitri warns that he only has 72 hours to complete the heist or he will kill Kip. After getting their mothers approval to do whatever it takes to save Kip, Memphis begins talking with his mentor, Otto Halliwell Robert Duvall and assembling a crew, including Donny Astricky Chi McBride and Sphinx Vinnie Jones. Memphis also tries to engage his former lover, Sara Sway Wayland Angelina Jolie, who initially refuses but later comes to help, rekindling her relationship with Memphis. Kip offers the help of his own gang, as they know tricks for dealing with more modern cars than Memphis crew knows. They identify the fifty cars with female code names and identify the locations where they can be stolen. Memphis sees one car is a 1967 Ford Shelby GT500, dubbed Eleanor, which he plans to steal last, as all former attempts to steal that type of car have ended badly and feels the car is cursed. To avoid police detection, they plan to steal all the cars over a few short hours just prior to Calitris deadline. ........
