On the verge of retirement from the Central Intelligence Agency, veteran spy Nathan Muir (Robert Redford) learns that his one-time protégé Tom Bishop (Brad Pitt) has gone rogue and been taken prisoner in Beijing after attempting to smuggle a prisoner out of China. Although Muir and Bishop had once been close friends, sharing adventures from Vietnam to Berlin, bad blood and resentment developed between them, and the two men haven't seen each other in years. As his memories of their friendship come flooding back, Muir agrees to take the most dangerous mission of his career, the rescue of his old friend from a Communist jail.
