Plot summary
A carjacker, John Curtis, takes a hostage on a bridge in Seattle, and the standoff leaves the hostage and the carjacker dead. Detective Quentin Conners is suspended after a fellow officer, Callo, gives evidence against him, and his partner Jason York is fired. Some time later, criminals led by Lorenz seize hostages inside a bank, and Lorenz asks to negotiate with Conners. Conners returns to duty with a new partner, the rookie Shane Dekker, who keeps watch on him. Conners sends a SWAT team into the bank once the power is cut, and an explosion covers the robbers' escape. Over a meal, Dekker says Lorenz spoke in riddles about chaos theory.

- Chaos was set to be produced by Franchise Pictures with Warner Bros. distributing, but serious financial trouble hit early in production, blamed on the failure of Battlefield Earth and fraud allegations over inflating the film's budget to attract German investment.
