The film is a remake of the 1998 French film of the same name. The film is set in New York City. In the film, a demoted police detective convinces a taxicab driver to help him track down a Brazilian gang of bank robbers, and to find out how the gang transports the stolen money. The detective is soon fired for insubordination, but the duo proceeds to confront the gang. The film was released by 20th Century Fox on October 6, 2004, in the United States. While the film was a modest success at the box office, it was panned by critics.
