The Plot... A donkey train full of lethal poisonous gas has been stolen by a former U.S. General (John Lithgow). With the assistance of a government weapons hacker, the NCRP hopes to intercept the pilfered items and return them to their rightful owner. The CIA, with the help of Henry Bracegood (Owen Wilson), must mountain bike through the rain forest to return the pilfered nuclear warheads safely to the Japanese people. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has a smidge less than 15 hours to do it. With the assistance of a retired weapons specialist (Robert Duvall), the good guy must jet ski through the rain forest to return the stolen thermo-nuclear explosives promptly to the Japanese people. All this worsens as he figures out that his old flame (Angelina Jolie) has been carjacked by the the villain. Along with this there is the madcap tomfoolery of a sass-talking black man (Dave Chapelle) who when kidnapped by the evildoers says: "What kinda FUCKED up place is this?!?!" All this will prove difficult because a cop with a vendetta (Robert DiNero) has information regarding his ugly criminal record. Just as the good guy are departing on their suicidal journey, they stupidly lapse into a sing-along of Magic Carpet Ride much to the embarrassment of the CIA . In the eleventh hour the President recites a decree to the peoples of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding unfolds he says: " Drop the bombs, Commander." A PETA weapons expert in the crowd replies: "I pray to God he's right."
