The Plot... A cargo barge full of government secrets has been pilfered by a good guy gone bad (John Lithgow). With the assistance of a contracted explosives hacker, the FBI hopes to intercept the stolen goods and return them to their rightful owner. The CIA, with the assistance of Henry Goodwright (Steve Buschemi), must ski through the Swiss Alps to return the stolen thermo-nuclear explosives promptly to the Icelandic government. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has a smidge less than 10 days to do it. With the assistance of a leather-faced stick in the mud (Bruce Willis), our heroes must mountain bike through the San Fransisco to return the borrowed lethal poisonous gas in a timely manner to the English people. The situation worsens as he realises that his old flame (Nicole Kidman) has been carjacked by the the villain. Also you see the madcap tomfoolery of a sass-talking black man (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the evildoers says: "Y'all be trippin' or somethin', shit." However this won't be easy seeing that an old rival with a score to settle (Ray Liotta) has information regarding his messy past. Just as the good guy are departing on their dangerous journey, they stupidly lapse into a sing-along of Magic Carpet Ride much to the disappointment of the ATF . In the eleventh hour the President issues a decree to the peoples of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding unfolds he says: "Mankind is a creature of survival. This is the dawn of a new tomorrow." A CIA computer hacker watching a TV in a store window answers this with: "I pray to God he's right."
