小迈克尔目睹了一起杀人案，他的行为也被帮会知悉了。帮会怕他走漏风声，然而迈克尔却以“他是我的儿子”为由保证他一定不会走漏消息。然而，迈克尔的妻子和他的小儿子却遭帮会误杀了，他们本来的目标是他和小迈克尔。父子两开始了亡命天涯和复仇之路!
Filming took place in the Chicago area. Mendes, having recently finished 1999's acclaimed American Beauty, pursued a story that had minimal dialogue and conveyed emotion in the imagery. Cinematographer Conrad L. Hall took advantage of the environment to create symbolism for the film, for which he won several awards, including the Academy Award for Best Cinematography. The film explores several themes, including the consequence of violence and father-son relationships.
