Former conman Ritchie (Alessandro Nivola) wants nothing to do with his father Nat (Christopher Walken) - the man, who trained him and ultimately landed him in jail. But when he finds out his father is dying, a reluctant Ritchie joins him on a road-trip. As they visit old friends (including an irresistible Sharon Stone) and gate-crash parties they find out that you dont need a lot of money to have a good life.
