The Plot... A donkey train loaded with lethal poisonous gas has been borrowed by computer genius (John Lithgow). With the aid of a government chemical expert, the PMRC hopes to intercept the pilfered goods and get them back to their original owner. The FBI, with the assistance of Nicholas Goodgood (Owen Wilson), must motorbike through the New Jersy Turnpike to deliver the stolen thermo-nuclear explosives safely to the American military. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has a smidge less than 15 hours to do it. With the assistance of an old marine (Jon Voight), the good guy must motorbike through the Sahara Desert to return the hijacked lethal poisonous gas promptly to the American government. The situation turns sour as he realises that his common law wife (Charlize Theron) has been working for the the bad guys. Added to the mix there is the madcap antics of a jive talkin' soul brother (Dave Chapelle) who when kidnapped by the the bad guys says: "All I know is when I get out of this here cell I'm gonna kick whitey's ass!" However this will prove difficult seeing that a nosy reporter (Lawrence Fishburne) has secrets regarding his ugly past. Just as our hero are setting out on their suicidal mission, they stupidly all burst into a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the embarrassment of the NCRP . In the eleventh hour the President fumbles through a decree to the citizens of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding unfolds he says: " This is the dawn of a new tomorrow." A PETA computer hacker in the crowd retorts: "I just hope we're not too late."
