The Plot... A bus loaded with CIA information has been hijacked by a former U.S. General (Ed Harris). With the aid of a private computer specialist, the NCAA hopes to reclaim the hijacked computer chips and return them to their rightful owner. PETA, with the aid of Humphrey Speedwinch (Will Smith), must mountain bike through the rain forest to return the hijacked nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the American military. And if this wasn't enough, he has a mere 8 days to do it. With the assistance of a leather-faced weapons specialist (Robert Duvall), our hero must skateboard through the jungle to return the pilfered thermo-nuclear explosives promptly to the Argentinian government. The situation worsens as he figures out that his high school sweetheart (Angelina Jolie) has been working with the the villain. Along with this we have the screwball slapstick of a jive talkin' black man (Dave Chapelle) who when kidnapped by the the bad guys says: "Y'all be trippin' or somethin', shit." However this will prove difficult seeing that a cop with a vendetta (Robert DiNero) has information about his sordid life of crime. Just as our hero are setting out on their dangerous journey, they poorly lapse into a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the dismay of NASA . In the eleventh hour the President delivers a speech to the governments of the world. As this moment of truth unfolds he says: "Nothing could have ever prepared me for this day. Drop the bombs, Commander." An NCAA chemical expert watching at home retorts: "He better be right... for our sake." Coming this fall. Rated R Running time 176 minutes Directed by: Ridley Scott Projected Critic Rating:
