The Plot... A jet loaded with CIA information has been stolen by military genius (Robert Vaughn). With the help of a private explosives hacker, the ATF hopes to intercept the stolen goods and get them back to their owner. The ATF, with the assistance of Stanley Benchgood (Denzel Washington), must jet ski through the Swiss Alps to return the borrowed thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the Icelandic military. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has a smidge less than 8 days to do it. With the aid of a grizzled weapons specialist (Sean Connery), the good guys must skateboard through the rain forest to return the hijacked government secrets promptly to the English military. The Predicament worsens as he figures out that his little sister (Charlize Theron) has been kidnapped by the the villain. Added to the mix there is the loveable tomfoolery of a jive talkin' soul brother (Dave Chapelle) who when kidnapped by the the villain says: "What the FUCK!?!?" All this won't be easy because a nosy reporter (Ray Liotta) has information regarding his sloppy life of crime. Just as our hero are departing on their perlious journey, they slowly all burst into a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the dismay of the CIA . In the eleventh hour the President recites a decree to the citizens of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding unfolds he says: " Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" A PETA weapons hacker in the crowd retorts: "I just hope we're not too late." Coming this winter. This film is not yet rated.
