Sheriff Ray Owens (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is a man who has resigned himself to a life of fighting what little crime takes place in sleepy border town Sommerton Junction, Arizona. Sommerton town is right next to the Mexican border with USA. Ray came to the town after leaving his LAPD post following a bungled operation that left him wracked with failure and defeat after his partner was crippled and his team decimated. The crimes experienced in Sommerton range from the Mayor parking his red Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 in the fire lane and vintage arms collector Lewis Dinkum (Johnny Knoxville) firing off guns at slabs of meat with the deputies Bailey and Figuerola. Bailey breaks his nose from the recoil from a heavy pistol. Dinkum operates a firearm museum and thus has the license to own and operate several heavy-duty guns. The museum opens 2nd Thursday of every month. Owens asks Figuerola to run the plates of 2 truckers who hurried out of a diner after Owens entered it. The Mayor is leaving with the town's football team for an away match and leaves his keys with Owens in case he has to move the car in case of a fire emergency. Owens is looking forward to a quiet weekend. Bailey tells Owens that he wants a transfer as he wants an assignment where there is some action. Bailey wants Owens to get him a job in LA, but Owens tries to counsel him that LA is not what it seems to be. Owens agrees to help if that's what Bailey really wants. Meanwhile the truckers, who were hauling a heavy rig, reach the farm of the local farmer. The truckers are joined by other henchmen, led by a man named Thomas Burrell. Burrell tells the farmer named Parsons that they are shooting a commercial on his property and offers him a large sum of money. Parsons refuses and orders Burrell and his associates off the farm. Burrell shoots Parsons down. The 3rd deputy, Sarah, has locked up her ex-boyfriend Frank Martinez for drunk and disorderly behavior. That very night, international drug lord Gabriel Cortez (Eduardo Noriega) makes a daring escape from FBI custody in Las Vegas and speeds off in a modified Chevrolet Corvette C6 ZR1, taking Agent Ellen Richards (Génesis RodrÃguez) as his hostage as he races southbound toward Mexico at speeds over 200 Mph. Cortez was being transferred to a prison facility for his eventual execution at the time of attack. The attack was extremely well timed & executed which suggested that Cortez's team had insider knowledge of the entire FBI operation & its details. Cortez was travelling in a convoy which came to a scheduled halt. At that moment, Cortez's van was picked up by a giant magnet (held by a crane) and taken to the roof of a nearby building. Cortez is extracted and then zip-lines to the roof of another building. Cortez had many men running around in orange jumpsuits, designed to confuse the pursuing agents. Cortez abducts Richards as he escapes. Agent John Bannister (Forrest Whitaker) has a blockade set up in Bullhead City, Arizona, but Cortez's men mow down the police officers on site and clear the road for him to continue his getaway. Cortez also uses his extraordinary driving skills to immobilize two SWAT vehicles headed toward Summerton Junction. Before flying to Arizona, Agent Bannister has his team do a financial background check on all agents involved to find out how Cortez managed to escape so easily. Sometime past 4:30 in the morning, Owens dispatches deputies Jerry Bailey (Zach Gilford) and Sarah Torrance (Jaimie Alexander) to visit the residence of the local farmer Parsons (Harry Dean Stanton), who has suddenly missed his usual milk delivery at the diner. After discovering that Parsons has been murdered, the deputies follow a trail of tire tracks that lead them to Cortez's henchman Thomas Burrell (Peter Stormare) and his mercenary cutthroats, who are planting a mobile assault bridge across the canyon that marks the U.S./Mexico border. Bailey is fatally shot in the middle of a shootout between the deputies and the thugs before Owens rushes in to bring his officers back to his precinct. Shortly after being notified by Agent Bannister of Cortez's presence, Owens gathers Torrance and senior Deputy Mike "Figgy" Figuerola (Luis Guzmán). He also deputizes jailed local Frank Martinez (Rodrigo Santoro), a former Marine with PTSD who developed a streak of never finishing what he started. Because Bailey was his friend, Martinez insists that he will not falter. Finally, Owens recruits Dinkum to protect their town. Dinkum agrees only if he becomes a deputy and if he keeps the gun Owens had confiscated earlier. At 7:10 a.m., Owens and his deputies have the town's main road barricaded with cars when Burrell and his men arrive, prompting a lengthy firefight. Armed only with a Tommy Gun, Figuerola holds off the thugs before being injured by a sniper. Owens and Dinkum mow down a majority of the thugs with a Vickers machine gun dubbed "Nazi-Killer" mounted on the back of a school bus with Martinez providing cover fire, while Torrance snipes several gunmen on the rooftops. After Owens kills Burrell, Cortez's Corvette eventually arrives in town, veering past the barricade as Owens and the deputies shoot at it. Cortez ejects Agent Richards from the car before speeding through a corn field. Suddenly, he encounters the Mayor's Camaro commandeered by Owens before both cars collide with a tractor. A dazed Cortez continues his escape on foot, but Owens meets him at the bridge. Owens ignores Cortez's bribe offers before both men wrestle each other. Despite sustaining slashes and stab wounds from Cortez's push dagger, Owens defeats the drug lord and handcuffs him before dragging him back into town with the battered Camaro. Agent Bannister arrives to take Cortez back into custody and arrests Agent Richards for taking the drug lord's bribe and aiding in his escape. Deputies Figuerola and Dinkum are taken to the hospital to be treated for their wounds. Martinez turns in the deputy's badge, Bailey's badge, that Owens had given him earlier. Owens tells him to keep it, as he's earned it. As the Mayor sees what is left of his Camaro, Owens warns him about parking in the fire lane before he, Torrance and Martinez walk into the diner.
