Reindeer Games Movie
After having served a 6-year sentence for car theft, Rudy Duncan (Ben Affleck) is about to go at large. His cellmate and best buddy Nick Cassidy (James Frain) is to be released from prison the same day but he is suddenly killed during a prison mutiny with only three days left to serve. Rudy makes up his mind to assume his dead cellmate's identity to start a relationship with his gorgeous pen pal, Ashley Mercer (Charlize Theron). Rudy, however, is unaware that Ashley's brother Gabriel (Gary Sinise) and his gang of thugs plot to rob a gambling casino in Michigan where Nick used to work, thus, Ashley is just tempting bait for Nick to be trapped into an armed heist on Christmas Eve. And now this seemingly funny idea of pretending to be Nick can cost Rudy his life.
