The Plot... A cargo bus loaded with CIA information has been stolen by the most dangerous terrorist in the world (Robert Vaughn). With the assistance of a government chemical expert, NASA hopes to intercept the pilfered computer chips and get them back to their native land. PETA, with the aid of Carter Goodspeed (Steve Buschemi), must race through the Swiss Alps to return the borrowed thermo-nuclear explosives safely to the American people. As if this wasn't enough, he has only 8 days to do it. With the help of a crochety navy seal (Jon Voight), the good guys must skateboard through the rain forest to deliver the borrowed nuclear warheads safely to the American government. The situation worsens as he realises that his sister in-law (Nicole Kidman) has been kidnapped by the the bad guys. Also you see the screwball antics of a jive talkin' soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when captured by the evildoers says: "Wassup my niggas?" However this will prove difficult seeing that a cop with a vendetta (Al Pacino) has secrets about his lackluster life of crime. Just as our hero are leaving on their dangerous mission, they stupidly all burst into a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the chagrin of the NCRP . In a stunning climax the President delivers a speech to the governments of the world. As this moment of truth unfolds he says: " Drop the bombs, Commander." An FBI chemical specialist in the crowd replies: "I just hope we're not too late." Coming this summer. This film is not yet rated.
