The Plot... A barge loaded with thermo-nuclear explosives has been borrowed by a good guy gone bad (Gene Hackman). With the help of a contracted weapons expert, the PMRC hopes to reclaim the stolen items and return them to their owner. PETA, with the assistance of Henry Botchgood (Owen Wilson), must race through the Swiss Alps to deliver the pilfered thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the Argentinian military. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has a smidge less than 15 hours to do it. With the help of a leather-faced navy seal (Jon Voight), our heroes must race through the New Jersy Turnpike to return the pilfered lethal poisonous gas in a timely manner to the English people. The situation worsens as he figures out that his wife (Nicole Kidman) has been carjacked by the the villain. Also we have the madcap antics of a sass-talking soul brother (Dave Chapelle) who when captured by the evildoers says: "You are some scary ass niggas!" All this won't be easy because a cop with a vendetta (Al Pacino) has information regarding his sordid life of crime. Just as our hero are marching off on their suicidal journey, they slowly all burst into a sing-along of September '63 much to the dismay of NASA . At the final moment the President fumbles through a speech to the governments of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding unfolds he says: "Here we stand, at the dawn of a new tomorrow. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" An NCAA computer specialist watching at home replies: "I just hope he's right."
