Stand Up Guys is a story about Val, who gets out of prison after 28 years, and his friend Doc who picks him up. The local mob boss, Claphands, wants Val dead because his son died in a robbery and he blames Val. Doc has until morning to kill him.
It's a long night filled with adventures as Val wants to party. They visit a cat house, Val needs Viagra, and they even break into a pharmacy. After midnight, they pick up Hirsch, their old wheelman, and drive around the city in a stolen car.
Throughout the night, they visit the cat house again, help a woman in distress, bury a body, and eat at Doc's hangout, a café where the cheerful waitress, Alex, works. As the sun rises, Claphands still wants Val dead, and Val, who has accepted his fate, is resigned.
The question remains: Is there anything left to take care of before the night is over?
