Plot:
In New York City, a man dressed like a clown robs a bank and closes his hostages in the vault. He negotiates with the veteran Chief of Police Rotzinger (Jason Robards) by phone and demands a helicopter, a powerful motorcycle, a bus and a monster truck. In return, he would release one hostage per item received. When the helicopter arrives, he releases a man that cries all the time. Then the motorcycle and the bus arrive, and he releases a couple of tourists. However, the hostages he has delivered are his friend Loomis (Randy Quaid); his girlfriend Phyllis Geena Davis; and himself, Grimm (Bill Murray), who is the mastermind of the heist. Now they are ready to leave New York City and fly to the Fiji Island. However, Loomis is a little slow and jeopardizes his getaway plan, and they have many difficulties to reach the JFK airport. Meanwhile, Rotzinger and the NYPD are hunting them down.
