The Plot... A cargo plane loaded with thermo-nuclear explosives has been stolen by a lunatic (Anthony Quinn). With the assistance of a private weapons expert, the FBI hopes to intercept the borrowed items and get them back to their owner. PETA, with the assistance of Humphrey Goodgood (Nicholas Cage), must skateboard through the Sahara Desert to deliver the pilfered thermo-nuclear explosives promptly to the Argentinian government. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has a mere 5 weeks to do it. With the assistance of a crochety marine (Robert Duvall), the good guy must jet ski through the San Fransisco to deliver the hijacked lethal poisonous gas safely to the Icelandic military. The situation turns sour as he realises that his common law wife (Nicole Kidman) has been working for the evildoers. Also you see the zany antics of a smart alec soul brother (Dave Chapelle) who when kidnapped by the the villain says: "You crazy, muthafucka?" All this will prove difficult seeing that an old rival with a score to settle (Samuel L. Jackson) has information concerning his lackluster life of crime. Just as our heroes are leaving on their suicidal mission, they poorly lapse into a sing-along of Werewolves of London much to the chagrin of the FBI . In the eleventh hour the President fumbles through a decree to the governments of the world. As this moment of truth drags on he says: "Here we stand, at the dawn of a new tomorrow. Drop the bombs, Commander." A CIA weapons specialist watching a TV in a store window answers this with: "I just hope he's right."
