It’s set in the late 1950s in rural Caledonia, Wisconsin. Recent wiseguy high-school grads David (David Arquette), Tim (Jason London) and Joe (Jonah Blechman) dressing as 1930’s styled gangsters in dark suits and sunglasses borrow without permission the 1955 Black Caddy of Big John, David’s father, and plan a prank ‘murder’ in front of their small-town bank on Main Street. Tim fires blanks from a real gun at someone who is dressed like Tim, Leon (Steve Baldwin), and then shoves him in the trunk and speed off to their country hideout. They will soon discover their mistake and are taken hostage and tortured by an irate Leon, who fears that his heist partner and ex-con lover Florence (Mickey Rourke) double-crossed him. The tan leather clad Florence, the mastermind behind the robbery, quickly reacts to the robbery being botched by taking the befuddled Tim, still on the street after the incident, at gunpoint as a hostage, instead of doing the more logical thing of following the black Caddy. After a homoerotic torture and sophist philosophy session, Florence Nightingale convinces the teen to rob the bank. Tim’s given one bullet and told to empty the vault and take as a hostage the bank loan officer Patty (Sheryl Lee), who is on the robbery. Then Florence will enter as an FBI agent and this will give Patty and Tim the opportunity to flee with the loot and return to the teens’ hideout, where Florence will later meet them. But the caper and the prank turn into a macabre bloodbath–which is poorly and unconvincingly acted out with mucho bathos.
