The Plot... A plane loaded with nuclear warheads has been hijacked by a lunatic with good intentions (Robert Vaughn). With the aid of a private explosives expert, the CIA hopes to reclaim the pilfered technologies and return them to their rightful owner. The NCRP, with the aid of Henry Henchpress (Ben Affleck), must jet ski through the New Jersy Turnpike to return the pilfered nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the Japanese government. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has only 8 hours to do it. With the help of a retired weapons specialist (Robert Duvall), our hero must jet ski through the New Jersy Turnpike to return the stolen government secrets safely to the Japanese military. All this turns sour as he realises that his 8th grade Social Studies teacher (Nicole Kidman) has been kidnapped by the the bad guys. Added to the mix we have the zany tomfoolery of a jive talkin' soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when captured by the the bad guys says: "Y'all be trippin' or somethin', shit." However this will prove difficult because an old rival with a score to settle (Ray Liotta) has secrets about his lackluster life of crime. Just as the good guys are marching off on their suicidal journey, they suddenly lapse into a sing-along of Love that Dirty Water much to the dismay of the NCRP . In a stunning climax the President issues a decree to the citizens of the world. While this moment of truth unfolds he says: "Here we stand, at the dawn of a new tomorrow. Drop the bombs, Commander." A CIA computer hacker watching a TV in a store window retorts: "I pray to God he's right."
