Smokin' Aces 2: Assassins' Ball is a straightforward 2010 direct-to-DVD action prequel centered on a bounty placed on unassuming FBI desk jockey Walter Weed (Tom Berenger), drawing a roster of eccentric assassins including the resourceful Ariella Martinez (Martha Higareda), the power-tool-wielding Surgeon (Vinnie Jones), the master of disguise Laszlo Soot (Tommy Flanagan), and others like those played by Clayne Crawford and Ernie Hudson.
