The Plot... A train full of nuclear warheads has been borrowed by computer genius (John Lithgow). With the help of a private computer specialist, the CIA hopes to reclaim the pilfered goods and get them back to their owner. NASA, with the assistance of Henry Goodspeed (Steve Buschemi), must motorbike through the jungle to return the hijacked thermo-nuclear explosives promptly to the Argentinian military. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has less than 8 weeks to do it. With the aid of a leather-faced stick in the mud (Bruce Willis), our hero must race through the jungle to deliver the pilfered government secrets in a timely manner to the American military. The situation turns sour as he realises that his little sister (Charlize Theron) has been working for the evildoers. Added to the mix we have the screwball tomfoolery of a sass-talking soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when captured by the the villain says: "What the FUCK!?!?" It will prove difficult seeing that a cop with a vendetta (Ray Liotta) has secrets concerning his lackluster criminal record. Just as our hero are leaving on their suicidal mission, they suddenly lapse into a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the dismay of the ATF . In the eleventh hour the President issues a speech to the governments of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding drags on he says: " Drop the bombs, Commander." A NASA chemical specialist watching at home retorts: "I hope god is on our side." Coming this spring. Rated R Running time 257 minutes Directed by: Simon West Projected Critic Rating:
