Freelancers (2012)

Freelancers Movie

The night Malo and his pals – the earnest Shady and the quixotic Lucas – finish NYPD’s cadet school, Joe Sarcone invites Malo to join a squad of corrupt undercover officers. Sarcone was Malo’s father’s partner, and memories of his father’s death haunt him. Malo also has unfinished business with Cyn, a former girlfriend, and with the widow of an assistant district attorney who pulled strings to get Malo into the police. Sarcone puts Malo to work as a bag man and an enforcer. He jumps into it, and asks if Shady and Lucas can join the squad. Things take a sharp turn when Malo learns of Baez, a drug kingpin, and involves his pals in a rogue robbery. Is there a plan?
