The Yards Movie Synopsis & Plot

"The Yards is a thriller set in the vast New York City subway yards. After being imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit, Leo Handler (Wahlberg) just wants to get his life back on track, so he goes to the one place he thinks will be safe--home. There Leo takes a new job with his highly connected and influential Uncle Frank (Caan), and is reunited with his longtime friend, Willie Guitierrez (Phoenix), his cousin, and his girlfriend Erica (Theron). But in the legendary yards, a place where his family has toiled for generations and his uncle now pulls the strings, safe is not how they do business. Unwittingly, he's drawn into a world of sabotage, high stakes pay-offs and even murder. And the secret he discovers, will make him the target of the most ruthless family in the city...his own. Now, in the name of justice he'll have to do everything in his power to take them down." -Miramax

MOVIE REVIEW

Mark Wahlberg, of Three Kings and The Perfect Storm fame, goes for the smaller film in The Yards, a movie that has a cast that is much larger than its potential. Besides Wahlberg, who is one of the best up and coming actors, the other key characters are played by Joaquin Phoenix (Gladiator), Charlize Theron (The Cider House Rules), and James Caan (The Godfather).
