Synopsis
Ex-jailbirds Eddie and Paul are on parole and working as counter-hands in a New York diner. Eddie is quiet, calm, stoical and confident. Paul is loud-mouthed, impulsive, emotional and obsessed with movies. They're best buddies and a team, but their lives are a dead end. That is, until bookworm English lawyer Katherine Rookwood walks into the diner with an offer they can't refuse for a “simple” job in London. It seems a client of Katherine’s needs a package delivery interrupted, so Eddie and Paul recruit a pair of goons to help them create a distraction and hijack the package. But things go terribly wrong and Eddie, Paul, and Katherine find themselves at the mercy of a well-heeled crime boss, Arkady, who relies on muscle provided by a psychotic, mullet-haired thug named Deacon Bradshaw. Their fate rests on the whereabouts of a prize gem known as the Blue Iguana, once the property of a European princess who is hoping it will restore her status and fortune if found. With Eddie, Katherine, Paul, and their crew holed up in a funky artists loft across the street from the pub Deacon runs under the watchful eye of his oversexed mother, our heroes have to navigate the unpredictable actions of Deacon and the powerful grip of Arkady to liberate the Blue Iguana and return it to its rightful owner.
