Plot

A professional thief named Parker is double-crossed by his crew after a successful heist at the Ohio State Fair. Led by the ruthless Melander, the crew believes they've left Parker for dead, but he survives and vows to ensure they regret betraying him. Consumed by the code he lives by—to never steal from the poor or hurt innocent people—Parker sets out to track down his former associates, who are planning an even bigger heist in Palm Beach, Florida. With revenge on his mind and a clear objective, Parker heads to Florida to intercept his old crew and take what he believes is rightfully his.

In Palm Beach, Parker takes on a new identity to infiltrate the world of the wealthy and get closer to his targets. During his reconnaissance, he crosses paths with Leslie, a smart and ambitious real estate agent struggling with financial hardships. Seeing an opportunity, Leslie becomes Parker's unlikely ally after realizing his intentions. Together, they devise a plan to undermine Melander's heist and get Parker's share of the previous job. Leslie uses her knowledge of the local area to help Parker navigate the upper echelons of Palm Beach society, all while Parker teaches Leslie the finer points of his criminal expertise, setting the stage for a dangerous and potentially lucrative partnership.

Parker": A gritty yet typical Statham actioner with strong video/audio; not groundbreaking but entertaining.
