action
The plot revolves around private detective Ned, played by Antonio Banderas, who is hired to find a missing stripper. Ned succeeds in questioning the key characters - but unfortunately everyone who has spoken to Ned is dead shortly afterwards. Pursued by the police, Ned continues to follow the trail, which takes him from the streets of Los Angeles to the desert of New Mexico leads. There Ned gets into a conflict between a brutal Russian boxer, three corrupt police officers (Poley, Frizer and Skeres) and an eccentric old millionaire who has put all his fortune to recreate the Big Bang , the eponymous "Big Bang", and thus that to find so-called " god particles " that prove the existence of a higher power.
