The Plot... A bus loaded with government secrets has been stolen by a lunatic with good intentions (Ed Harris). With the assistance of a contracted chemical specialist, the PMRC hopes to reclaim the borrowed computer chips and return them to their native land. NASA, with the assistance of Bufford Menchwreck (Cuba Gooding, Jr.), must race through the jungle to return the borrowed thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the Argentinian government. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has less than 5 weeks to do it. With the assistance of a crochety stick in the mud (Bruce Willis), the good guys must race through the jungle to deliver the pilfered thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the American people. The Predicament worsens as he realises that his sister in-law (Nicole Kidman) has been working for the evildoers. Also we have the loveable tomfoolery of a smart alec black man (Chris Tucker) who when captured by the the bad guys says: "What kinda fucked up situation is this?" It won't be easy because a cop with a vendetta (Ray Liotta) has secrets about his ugly past. Just as our hero are setting out on their suicidal journey, they stupidly all burst into a sing-along of September '63 much to the embarrassment of the FBI . At the final moment the President delivers a speech to the governments of the world. As this moment of truth drags on he says: "Mankind is a creature of survival. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" A PMRC weapons specialist watching at home replies: "I pray to God he's right."
