The Plot... A plane loaded with government secrets has been pilfered by a former U.S. General (Anthony Quinn). With the aid of a government chemical expert, the NCRP hopes to reclaim the stolen items and return them to their original owner. The NCRP, with the help of Austin Bracewreck (Ed Begely, Jr.), must ski through the Sahara Desert to deliver the borrowed nuclear warheads promptly to the American military. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has less than 12 hours to do it. With the help of an old navy seal (Bruce Willis), our heroes must mountain bike through the rain forest to deliver the stolen nuclear warheads safely to the Japanese government. The situation worsens as he realises that his brother's girlfriend (Angelina Jolie) has been working with the evildoers. Added to the mix we have the madcap slapstick of a sass-talking soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when kidnapped by the evildoers says: "What kinda FUCKED up place is this?!?!" All this will prove difficult because a cop with a vendetta (Lawrence Fishburne) has information pertaining to his sloppy criminal record. Just as the good guys are setting out on their suicidal journey, they slowly join in on a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the dismay of the CIA . In the eleventh hour the President recites a speech to the governments of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding drags on he says: "This has been the most difficult decision I have ever had to make. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" An NCRP weapons expert watching a TV in a store window answers this with: "I hope god is on our side." Coming this spring. This film is not yet rated.
