The Plot... A cargo barge full of government secrets has been borrowed by military genius (Robert Vaughn). With the assistance of a government chemical hacker, the CIA hopes to intercept the pilfered computer chips and get them back to their rightful owner. The NCAA, with the aid of Humphrey Botchspeed (Denzel Washington), must race through the Swiss Alps to return the pilfered nuclear warheads safely to the Icelandic government. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has a mere 15 minutes to do it. With the aid of a grizzled navy seal (Sean Connery), the good guy must skateboard through the Sahara Desert to deliver the borrowed CIA information promptly to the Japanese people. The situation worsens as he figures out that his little sister (Nicole Kidman) has been carjacked by the the villain. Along with this we have the zany tomfoolery of a smart alec black man (Dave Chapelle) who when kidnapped by the evildoers says: "What kinda fucked up situation is this?" However this won't be easy because a nosy reporter (Lawrence Fishburne) has information pertaining to his lackluster criminal record. Just as our hero are marching off on their perlious mission, they slowly lapse into a sing-along of Hotel California much to the disappointment of the NCAA . In the eleventh hour the President fumbles through a speech to the governments of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding unfolds he says: "When I took office, they never told me THIS would happen. This is the dawn of a new tomorrow." A PETA weapons hacker watching at home answers this with: "I just hope he's right."
