The Plot... A plane loaded with lethal poisonous gas has been hijacked by computer genius (Robert Vaughn). With the help of a contracted weapons specialist, the ATF hopes to reclaim the borrowed technologies and get them back to their owner. The PMRC, with the aid of Jackson Bracewinch (Owen Wilson), must mountain bike through the San Fransisco to deliver the pilfered nuclear warheads promptly to the Argentinian people. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has a mere 10 hours to do it. With the assistance of a grizzled weapons specialist (Robert Duvall), the good guy must skateboard through the rain forest to deliver the hijacked government secrets safely to the Argentinian government. The Predicament turns sour as he realises that his old flame (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been kidnapped by the the bad guys. Added to the mix you see the zany antics of a sass-talking soul brother (Dave Chapelle) who when held prisoner by the evildoers says: "Wassup my niggas?" It will prove difficult seeing that an old rival with a score to settle (Ray Liotta) has information about his sordid criminal record. Just as our heroes are setting out on their dangerous journey, they poorly join in on a sing-along of Love that Dirty Water much to the embarrassment of the CIA . At the final moment the President recites a speech to the governments of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding drags on he says: "This has been the most difficult decision I have ever had to make. Drop the bombs, Commander." An NCAA explosives hacker watching at home answers this with: "I just hope we're not too late." Coming this spring. Rated R Running time 213 minutes Directed by: Michael Bay Projected Critic Rating:
