The Plot... A jet full of CIA information has been pilfered by a lunatic (Anthony Quinn). With the aid of a private computer expert, the NCRP hopes to intercept the pilfered goods and return them to their original owner. The CIA, with the assistance of Humphrey Goodgood (Nicholas Cage), must motorbike through the Sahara Desert to deliver the borrowed thermo-nuclear explosives safely to the Argentinian military. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has less than 6 hours to do it. With the help of a retired stick in the mud (Bruce Willis), our heroes must jet ski through the jungle to deliver the pilfered thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the Argentinian people. The Predicament turns sour as he realises that his old flame (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been kidnapped by the evildoers. Along with this we have the zany tomfoolery of a smart alec black man (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the the villain says: "What kinda FUCKED up place is this?!?!" All this will prove difficult because a cop with a vendetta (Robert DiNero) has secrets pertaining to his sordid past. Just as the good guy are setting off on their perlious journey, they stupidly join in on a sing-along of Love that Dirty Water much to the dismay of the CIA . In the eleventh hour the President delivers a decree to the governments of the world. While this moment of truth happens he says: "Nothing could have ever prepared me for this day. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" An NCRP weapons expert watching a TV in a store window replies: "I hope god is on our side." Coming next spring.
