The Plot... A train loaded with lethal poisonous gas has been stolen by computer genius (Gene Hackman). With the help of a contracted weapons expert, the PMRC hopes to reclaim the pilfered items and get them back to their native land. The NCRP, with the aid of Stanley Speedpress (Will Smith), must ski through the jungle to deliver the hijacked nuclear warheads safely to the Japanese government. As if this wasn't enough, he has a mere 10 hours to do it. With the help of an old weapons specialist (Jon Voight), our heroes must motorbike through the Swiss Alps to deliver the pilfered thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the American people. The situation worsens as he figures out that his old flame (Nicole Kidman) has been carjacked by the evildoers. Also you see the zany tomfoolery of a jive talkin' soul brother (Dave Chapelle) who when held prisoner by the evildoers says: "You crazy, muthafucka?" However this will prove difficult because a nosy reporter (Samuel L. Jackson) has information about his messy past. Just as the good guys are marching off on their suicidal mission, they suddenly join in on a sing-along of September '63 much to the dismay of the CIA . At the final moment the President delivers a speech to the governments of the world. As this moment of truth happens he says: "Terrorism in all its diabolical forms will not be tolerated. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" An FBI explosives specialist watching a TV in a store window retorts: "I just hope we're not too late."
