A group of small-time criminals decides that with the recent popularity of British gangster movies, they could make a lot more money by filming their exploits and making a movie than from the actual heists. They enlist the help of a beautiful woman named Crystal to play the damsel in distress but things go awry when they ask local mob boss Eddie to play the leader of the operation. While they're in the middle of shooting the scene, Eddie insists that they go through with the actual robbery-complicating matters for everyone involved.
