The Plot... A donkey train loaded with nuclear warheads has been pilfered by a former U.S. General (Ed Harris). With the help of a contracted explosives hacker, NASA hopes to reclaim the borrowed computer chips and return them to their owner. The NCRP, with the help of Stanley Henchgood (Denzel Washington), must motorbike through the Sahara Desert to return the pilfered thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the Japanese military. As if this wasn't enough, he has less than 6 days to do it. With the assistance of a crochety weapons specialist (Bruce Willis), our heroes must jet ski through the San Fransisco to return the hijacked government secrets in a timely manner to the English military. The situation turns sour as he realises that his brother's girlfriend (Angelina Jolie) has been working with the the villain. Added to the mix there is the madcap slapstick of a smart alec black man (Dave Chapelle) who when captured by the evildoers says: "You are some scary ass niggas!" All this won't be easy seeing that an old rival with a score to settle (Robert DiNero) has secrets concerning his sloppy criminal record. Just as our hero are setting off on their dangerous mission, they stupidly lapse into a sing-along of Magic Carpet Ride much to the dismay of the PMRC . In the eleventh hour the President fumbles through a speech to the citizens of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding happens he says: "Nothing could have ever prepared me for this day. This is the dawn of a new tomorrow." A NASA explosives expert watching a TV in a store window retorts: "He better be right... for our sake." Coming next fall. This film is not yet rated.
