'The Get Out' synopsis

Russell Crowe plays Marco, an Albanian nightclub owner secretly laundering money for the cartel. He's ready to leave it all behind for a quiet, beachside retirement with his girlfriend (Teresa Palmer), but that plan goes up in flames when a pair of masked gunmen (Nina Dobrev, Aaron Paul) rob him. Now, he needs to get out of Los Angeles before either the cartel finds him or the cops find out he's laundering money ... or before he gets robbed again.
