2 Guns
An undercover DEA agent and a covert Navy SEAL posing as low‑level crooks must team up to rob a drug lord’s multimillion‑dollar stash, all while concealing their true identities from each other and surviving the deadly fallout of their double lives.
“Never rob a bank across from a diner with the best donuts in three counties.”
Synopsis
A DEA agent and an undercover Naval Intelligence officer, who have been assigned to investigate each other, discover they have been framed by the mob—the very organization the two men believed they had been stealing money from.

A crew of 958+ credited
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 2.2× its budget
Why 2.5×?
Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
Worldwide gross
$131.9M
US & Canada: $75.6M — 57% of worldwide · International: $56.3M (43%)
