两个敌对的伦敦黑帮家族，哈里根家族与史蒂文森家族争夺大权，展开你死我活的战争，恐怕将推翻帝国并摧毁许多人的人生。危险又英俊的平事人哈利·达·索萨（汤姆·哈迪 饰）被卷入战局，他很清楚对立势力交锋时人们的忠诚何在。两强交锋时，一定会跨越界线，唯一的可取之处就是不变的信条：家人最重要。

How About You tells the story of Ellie (Hayley Atwell), a footloose and fearless young woman who is left in charge of a residential home owned and run by her older sister Kate (Orla Brady), over the Christmas period. Her youth and inexperience bring her into bitter conflict with the four grumpy old residents known as the 'hardcore': retired screen beauty Georgia (Vanessa Redgrave), spinster sisters Hazel (Imelda Staunton) and Heather (Brenda Fricker), and a reformed alcoholic judge, Donald (Joss Ackland). The film deals with the at times hilarious antics of these uncivilized seniors, the gradual solidarity that develops between the residents and Ellie and an unlikely romance.

Sergeant Driscoll searches for a kidnapped toddler from a dysfunctional family background. There are also two subplots involving a teacher suspected to be a paedophile and the appearance of Driscoll's father at a tribunal, the latter echoing the factual events of the long-running Morris Tribunal.
