The Plot... A cargo bus loaded with nuclear warheads has been hijacked by a good guy gone bad (Robert Vaughn). With the assistance of a private weapons specialist, PETA hopes to reclaim the hijacked technologies and get them back to their original owner. The ATF, with the aid of Hubert Menchwreck (Tom Cruise), must motorbike through the jungle to deliver the stolen nuclear warheads promptly to the Japanese government. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has only 5 days to do it. With the aid of a leather-faced stick in the mud (Jon Voight), the good guy must motorbike through the Swiss Alps to return the pilfered lethal poisonous gas safely to the Japanese military. All this worsens as he realises that his brother's girlfriend (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been kidnapped by the the villain. Along with this we have the zany slapstick of a jive talkin' black man (Chris Tucker) who when kidnapped by the the bad guys says: "You are some scary ass niggas!" It will prove difficult seeing that a cop with a vendetta (Robert DiNero) has secrets concerning his ugly criminal record. Just as the good guy are setting off on their perlious journey, they suddenly lapse into a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the embarrassment of the NCAA . At the final moment the President delivers a speech to the governments of the world. While this moment of truth drags on he says: "Mankind is a creature of survival. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" A CIA explosives expert in the crowd retorts: "I just hope we're not too late." Coming this spring.
