http://tinyurl.com/gowtchnw Armored is a 2009 American crime thriller film directed by Nimród Antal, written by first-time screenwriter James V. Simpson, and starring Matt Dillon, Jean Reno and Laurence Fishburne. It was released on December 4, 2009.

Ty Hackett (Columbus Short), an armed service veteran, is now an employee of Eagle Shield security as a member of one of their many armored car transport team. Now the legal guardian of younger brother Jimmy (Andre Kinney), the Silver Star recipient now struggles to make ends meet. In a bar after an armored car prank heist played on Hackett, his co-workers recount several historical attacks on armored cars. It is explained that Ashcroft (Fred Ward), their immediate supervisor, was once involved in an ambush, becoming the only survivor as he single-handedly killed 5 assailants. This story was topped by "a better" one of an armored car jacking in '88 where the guards surrendered the funds they were escorting in order to avoid the killing of a fellow guard concluding in the safety of all members and escape of the hijackers. The thieves were never caught and the crew speculates that the escort team staged the attack. After constant letters to foreclose on his home, Hackett finds himself in need of additional money to help make ends meet. While contemplating this, Hackett is approached by Mike Cochrane (Matt Dillon), his god father and co-worker, who has devised a plan to steal money being transferred from the Federal Reserve to the local banks. Hackett turns down the offer. Upon arriving home that evening, he finds a social worker who explains that Hackett's brother has missed most of the school year, and that the lack of proper care has forced the state to consider placing Jimmy in a foster home.

The following morning, after receiving assurances from Cochrane that no one will be hurt, Hackett reluctantly agrees to participate in the heist. The crew are dispatched as normal in two trucks to collect 42 million from the Federal Reserve, and after a radio check-in with their superiors the plan is set into motion by driving to an abandoned steel mill located in a radio dead-zone after pick up. Here the team begins to unload the money for storage, intending to collect the cash after the heat from the heist dies down. The group offloads the first truck, but their plan is compromised when a homeless man living in the mill is spotted observing them. After a chase ensues as the man has seen too much an armed guard shoots him. Hackett tries to take the injured man to the unloaded truck, but as he attempts to do so, Cochrane kills the man, stating that he had no choice. Upset over this, Hackett barricades himself inside the truck with the remaining 21 million inside. After an attempt to flee in the truck fails, Hackett sets off the truck's alarm, which catches the attention of a local sheriff's deputy, Jake Eckehart (Milo Ventimiglia).
