A man (Jim Caviezel) wakes up in an industrial building with no way out. Four other men (Greg Kinnear, Joe Pantoliano, Barry Pepper, Jeremy Sisto) wake up and non of them have any memories. They are all badly beaten presumably by each other. They discover that some of them are probably kidnappers and two of them are possibly their victims. A gas stored in the building had been released causing the amnesia. Meanwhile, the police detectives are pursuing the money drop and investigating the kidnapping.
I really like the premise of the five guys with no memory in a sealed building. This has so much potential but there are little issues that pecked away at the tension. The flashbacks are problematic and as memories, they don't look good. It would be much more compelling to just have five guys in a box movie. It should be a contained affair. I don't mind the investigation but it adds nothing that couldn't be better without it. This is begging to be stripped down to its core like a stage play.
