[4] Safecracker Dom Hemingway (Jude Law) is released after spending 12 years in prison and seeks payment for refusing to rat out his boss Ivan Fontaine (Demián Bichir).

He reunites with his best friend Dickie (Richard E. Grant) and they travel to Fontaine's villa in the French countryside.

They spend the night partying with two girls, one of whom, Melody (Kerry Condon) strikes up a conversation with Dom.

A few days later, Dom returns to London and collapses outside the apartment of his estranged daughter, Evelyn (Emilia Clarke).

He wakes up and Evelyn's boyfriend Hugh (Nathan Stewart-Jarrett) introduces Dom to his grandson, Jawara.

Hugh says that Evelyn is upset that Dom left her and was in prison, missing out on her childhood and his wife Katherine's death.

Hugh suggests Dom visit Evelyn after her concert at a local club and attempt to reconcile.

There, Evelyn tells Dom he would only have spent three years in prison if he had ratted on Fontaine; because he didn't, he missed out on her childhood and her mother dying.

Principal photography took place in the Autumn of 2012 in St Tropez, Isle of Man and London locations, The Historic Dockyard Chatham[5] and Pinewood Studios.

The website's critical consensus states: "Jude Law is clearly having fun in Dom Hemingway's title role, but viewers may find this purposely abrasive gangster dramedy isn't quite as enjoyable from the other side of the screen.
