In Seattle, detective Quentin Conners is unfairly suspended and his partner Jason York leaves the police force after a tragic shooting on Pearl Street Bridge, when the hostage and the criminal die. During a bank heist with a hostage situation, Conners is assigned in charge of the operation with the rookie Shane Dekker as his partner. The thieves, lead by Lorenz, apparently do not steal a penny from the bank. While chasing the gangsters, the police team disclose that they planted a virus in the system, stealing one billion dollars from the different accounts, using the principle of the Chaos Theory. Further, they find that Lorenz is killing his accomplices.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Wesley Snipes filmed this during his tax evasion legal troubles, which explains his limited availability and why he's masked half the runtime.
The Chaos Theory explanation scene is essentially a Wikipedia summary read dramatically—this movie really thought it was clever.
