Smokin' Aces is a film written and directed by Joe Carnahan. An action comedy set in Lake Tahoe, it marks Carnahan's first feature film after Narc. It stars Ryan Reynolds and Jeremy Piven as the leads with Piven as a washed up comedian and big time mob informant, and Reynolds as the FBI agent assigned to protect him from assassins. It is the feature film debut of Alicia Keys.
Buddy "Aces" Israel (Jeremy Piven) is a Las Vegas comedian/magician turned mob peon who decides to turn in evidence on mafia kingpin Primo Sparazza (Joseph Ruskin), but before he heads into protective custody, he decides to have one last good time at the Lake Tahoe casinos. Sparazza sees this as the perfect opportunity to take him out and offers $1,000,000 to anyone who can. Now, it's left to two FBI agents (Ryan Reynolds and Ray Liotta) to find and protect Aces from incoming high-caliber assassins (including Ben Affleck and Alicia Keys).
