Cradle 2 the Grave
Plot
-The movie opens with a group of theives- led by Anthony Fait(DMX)- stealing diamonds for a Frenchman named Christophe, who serves as the middleman for a mysterious employer. When Fait contacts Christophe, a Taiwanese Intelligence Agent named Su(Jet Li) intercepts the conversation and attempts to ID the criminals



-While the crew gather up as many diamonds as they can, including a bag of rare black diamonds, Agent Su calls Fait and demands that he and his crew leave the diamonds in the vault, warning him that the police are on their way. Fait ignores this, and they attempt a daring escape past a SWAT team brigade. While Fait, Darla, Tommy all escape, Miles is captured by Agent Su and he recovers all the diamonds Miles had. Su is disappointed to discover Miles does not have the black diamonds he is after. Fait, meanwhile, asks his friend Archie(Tom Arnold) to appraise the black diamonds he stole. Arriving at San Francisco International Airport, Christophe's mysterious employer, Yao Ling(Mark Dacascos) is told by his assistant Sona(Kelly Hu) that Christophe has been attacked and that Fait and his gang have stolen the black diamonds


-Later on, Fait runs into Su. During this meeting, Fait gets a phone call from Yao Ling, who demands that Fait turn over the diamonds to him. Fait refuses and is subsequently attacked by 2 of Ling's henchmen. With help from Su, they escape. After this fight, Archie informs Fait that 2 guys came to his workshop and started demanding black diamonds. He says he gave the stones to some local gangsters to spare his own life. Fait gets another call from Ling, this time to say that he has Fait's daughter Vanessa to use as leverage to get his diamonds. Now with a common enemy, Su and Fait team up to get the diamonds and rescue Vanessa.

-Fait visits jailed crims lord "Jump" Chambers(Chi McBride), most likely the employer of the gangsters who robbed Archie. When Chambers refuses to cooperate, Fait goes to Chambers' night club, hoping to find the stones somewhere in his office. The plan goes bad when Fait and his gang leave empty handed. Meanwhile, Archie and Su go to an underground club to try and find the gangsters who attacked Archie. Because the club does not allow guests, Su is forced to enter as a fighter in the club's fighting ring. During Su's fight, Archie sees the man they're looking for, recognizing the man's ring. Through this informant, they learn the stones are hidden in the bubble bath in Chamber's office. When they return, they find Yao Ling's men have already taken the stones. Elsewhere, Vanessa is locked in a van and she finds a cell phone and calls her dad, but the battery runs out. She manages to tell her father that she is being held in an airport hangar



-Realizing that Yao Ling will want to auction off the stones, which are actually weapons of mass destruction, the group searches for flight records to find an airport where a large # of private flights will be landing. Finding the right airport, they race to the hangar, where Yao's auction is. A fight ensues and Fait and his crew take out members of Ling's team. Vanessa is rescued and Ling is killed by one of the stones. When the police arrive, Fait promises to end his criminal life in order to lead a safe and happy life with Vanessa
