Mel Gibson portrays Porter - a career criminal bent on revenge after his partners in a street heist pump metal into him and take off with his $70,000 cut. Bad move, thugs.
Because if you plan to double-cross Porter, you'd better make sure he's dead.

And the way he sets out to get is assures that, from beginning to heartpounding end, Payback pays off big.
The Straight Up: The Director’s Cut edition comes loaded with bonus features including:
