Terry Noonan (Sean Penn) returns to New York's Hell's Kitchen after twelve years to find that his old neighborhood of seedy bars and Irish-American mobsters has been taken over by Yuppies hell-bent on gentrification. Terry's childhood buddies, ruthless gang leader Frankie Flannery (Ed Harris) and his psychotic brother Jackie (Gary Oldman), are determined to keep the neighborhood's tradition of organized -- and extremely violent -- crime alive. Terry joins Frankie's gang and gets back together with his former love, Frankie's sister Kathleen (Robin Wright). But as the cops crack down on the Flannery crime ring, it becomes clear that Terry's loyalties are dangerously divided.
