Un grupo de veteranos de guerra de Iraq decide robar un banco, pero las cosas no salen tal cual lo planeado y no les queda otra alternativa que atrincherarse con rehenes. Estos hombres, entrenados para llevar a cabo operaciones militares de alto riesgo, están dispuestos a todo con tal de no ser encarcelados, y seguirán a su líder -el sargento Wolf (John Leguizamo)- hasta las últimas consecuencias. Del otro lado está Horst Cali (Donnie Wahlberg), un experto y hábil negociador de rehenes de la policía de Pittsburgh, cuya función es la de liberar a las víctimas atrapadas en semejante situación.

Jake "Mr. Wolf" Mendez (John Leguizamo) and his men enter a bank and leave with the money. Nevertheless, an FBI special agent inside the bank follows them out and draws her weapon. One of Jake's men opens fire on her, which attracts the attention of a nearby armored car. The men engage these two assailants and the Pittsburgh Police as they arrive from the cover of their getaway car. Eventually, the FBI special agent is shot and their getaway car is disabled. One of Mendez's men is also shot, along with the getaway driver who runs away from the scene. As some of the frightened bank customers flee out the back door, Wolf tells his men to fall back into the bank. The men, who go by animal codenames, begin to barricade themselves in the bank along with about twelve hostages. Captain Horst Cali, a police negotiator (Donnie Wahlberg), arrives outside and begins to set up the command post in a local restaurant.

Under pressure from, Deputy Chief Nolan Abrami (Michael McGlone), Cali attempts to engage Wolf in conversation while a SWAT team, commanded by Lieutenant Connie Reubens (Michael Hyatt), infiltrates the bank, hoping to catch the robbers off-guard. The attempt fails when SWAT set off a tripwire rigged to the fire alarm, inciting another shootout that claims the life of one of the SWAT officers and prompts Wolf to have a face-to-face confrontation outside the bank wherein he explains what he and his men endured in Iraq, even stripping down to his underwear to display the numerous scars inflicted on him during the war, his speech eliciting cheers and applause from the assembled crowd. Wolf warns Cali not to try breaching again as he returns to the bank.

Slowly the news of the hostage situation begins to spread throughout the town. People show up outside to catch a glimpse of what is going on but are pushed away by police barricades. Cali discovers there is a 16-year-old boy, Robby Sabian (with his father Teddy Sabian) inside the bank, and he makes rescuing the boy a priority. However the robbers need Robby and his laptop to try to find a clear frequency so they can communicate with Ashley Beck's BlackBerry. After a heated phone call with Wolf that goes nowhere, Cali orders the lights in the bank to be shut off until Robby is freed. Wolf threatens to kill a hostage if the lights are not turned on in one hour. As the deadline approaches, Wolf begins to contemplate if he could kill an innocent man. However the lights come back on right as Wolf is about to shoot Bernard, the eldest of the hostages.

Cali then notifies Wolf that the FBI special agent that was in the bank earlier had died in the hospital. With one of their own dead, the FBI is sent in to help with the negotiations. Cali is demoted to secondary negotiator in consultant capacity because he gave in to a death threat. An FBI negotiator comes in and takes over the operation, but Wolf begins to toy with her, making jokes, finally yelling at her that he will only speak to Cali.
In the finale, Henry (Mr. Rabbit) Roman takes control after Mr. Mouse was shot and killed by SWAT after they mistook the art book he pulled out of his pocket for a weapon. He answers the phone and tells Cali that if he doesn't have a bus and a chopper in half an hour, he'll throw bodies out every five minutes. He says he'll discipline the hostages. When Ashley Beck doesn't listen to Mr. Rabbit he drags her by her hair and leaves the phone on so Cali can hear. However, Rabbit soon gets into a disagreement with Wolf that leads to a fight between the two. Wolf ultimately beats Rabbit to death.

Wolf, Cat and Pig get help from Cali to escape when Cali learns that they have his wife. They escape disguised as hostages and leave in an ambulance. They have a van waiting for them under a bridge and take it to a secure location but Wolf has a bug on him and the police hear everything he says and are ready for him at the location. When they get there Deke and some men are waiting for him. They tell him there has been a change of plans, and that they need to take Cali's wife. When they try to leave, the men point their weapons at each other, squaring off, and Quincy the sniper (Michael K. Williams) shoots one of Deke's men. Deke escapes with Horst's wife, and Horst follows him into a warehouse.
Pig takes off, with Hawk hot in pursuit. They exchange fire, until Pig hides behind an alcove and, using a broken mirror on the ground, stays hidden and looks on, while the other SWAT members leave. He runs down to the train track, pressing himself against the grill to avoid being seen, and when he sees a train coming, hops in.
Wolf and Cat engage Deputy Chief Abrami and Lieutenant Reubens on the bridge. Using his last round, Wolf hits Connie in the arm. He screams he is out of ammunition, and Cat tells him to run, saying he has him covered. Showing great loyalty, he continues to fire until being shot several times in the chest by Abrami, and dies.
Meanwhile, Deke and Cali shoot it out in the warehouse, with Cali finally killing Deke, and getting his wife back. As he leads her out, he spots Wolf, and hands his wife off to another SWAT member, as he pursues Wolf. They get to the end of a wharf, and Wolf claims he has no life to go back to, or live for. Horst shoots Wolf once in the heart. As he falls over, and dies he asks Horst if he felt anything. Horst replies yes, and Wolf accepts that he now knows what he had to go through.
Albert (Mr. Pig) Roman was the only one to escape and flees to Canada. The Canadian bank to which they have transferred the six million dollars allows a fellow 10/13 member to withdraw it for him, and Albert leaves with checks for his parents ($1 million), Mendez's son Luke ($1.5 million), Marshall's dad ($1 million) and himself ($2 million) with $500,000 in cash.
