A businessman becomes the last line of defense for his family and his business in this
thriller.
Jack Stanfield (
Harrison Ford) is an upper-echelon technology executive at Landrock Pacific Bank, a leading financial institution based in Seattle.
Stanfield oversees security for Landrock, and has made sure that their online banking services are the best-protected in the world, and that the bank's data is safe from hackers and other intruders. However,
Stanfield finds out the hard way that his system does indeed have a flaw when he's visited by
Bill Cox (
Paul Bettany), a cold and calculating man who has spent months learning everything there is know about
Stanfield and his family.
Cox's underlings have taken
Stanfield's wife,
Beth (
Virginia Madsen), and their two children hostage, and they inform
Jack that they will be released only when he uses his knowledge of the bank's security systems to deposit 100 million dollars in
Cox's account in an offshore bank.
Stanfield is deeply wary but willing to go along to ensure the safety of his family, but when he has reason to doubt that
Cox and his cohorts will live up to their end of the bargain, he swings into action to exact justice against the criminals.
Firewall also stars
Alan Arkin,
Robert Forster, and
Mary Lynn Rajskub.
