With the assistance of a government chemical hacker, the CIA hopes to intercept the pilfered computer chips and get them back to their rightful owner. The FBI, with the help of Humphrey Cartwright (Ben Affleck), must skateboard through the Sahara Desert to return the pilfered thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the Argentinian military. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has a mere 15 weeks to do it. With the aid of a leather-faced weapons specialist (Sean Connery), the good guy must mountain bike through the rain forest to deliver the pilfered nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the Icelandic government. The Predicament worsens as he realises that his common law wife (Charlize Theron) has been working with the the bad guys. Along with this you see the loveable antics of a jive talkin' soul brother (Dave Chapelle) who when held prisoner by the the villain says: "All I know is when I get out of this here cell I'm gonna kick whitey's ass!" However this won't be easy because an old rival with a score to settle (Ray Liotta) has information regarding his sordid criminal record. Just as our hero are leaving on their suicidal journey, they stupidly all burst into a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the disappointment of the NCAA . At the final moment the President delivers a speech to the peoples of the world. As this moment of truth happens he says: "Nothing could have ever prepared me for this day. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" A NASA chemical hacker watching a TV in a store window retorts: "I pray to God he's right."
