The Plot... A cargo plane full of nuclear warheads has been borrowed by a former U.S. General (Anthony Quinn). With the help of a contracted explosives expert, the CIA hopes to intercept the borrowed goods and return them to their original owner. The PMRC, with the help of Hubert Henchwreck (Will Smith), must motorbike through the rain forest to return the pilfered nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the English government. As if this wasn't enough, he has a mere 10 hours to do it. With the assistance of a retired navy seal (Bruce Willis), the good guy must ski through the Sahara Desert to return the borrowed nuclear warheads promptly to the Argentinian government. All this worsens as he realises that his brother's girlfriend (Nicole Kidman) has been kidnapped by the the bad guys. Along with this there is the screwball tomfoolery of a sass-talking soul brother (Dave Chapelle) who when captured by the evildoers says: "You are some scary ass niggas!" However this won't be easy seeing that an old rival with a score to settle (Ray Liotta) has information regarding his lackluster past. Just as our hero are setting out on their dangerous journey, they stupidly join in on a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the chagrin of the CIA . In a stunning climax the President delivers a decree to the peoples of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding drags on he says: "Terrorism in all its diabolical forms will not be tolerated. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" A PETA explosives specialist watching at home retorts: "I just hope we're not too late." Coming this spring.
