The Plot... A barge loaded with government secrets has been hijacked by a good guy gone bad (Gene Hackman). With the help of a government explosives expert, the NCRP hopes to intercept the pilfered technologies and get them back to their owner. PETA, with the aid of Bufford Henchwreck (Owen Wilson), must skateboard through the Sahara Desert to deliver the pilfered nuclear warheads safely to the Icelandic government. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has less than 5 minutes to do it. With the assistance of a grizzled navy seal (Jon Voight), our heroes must motorbike through the Sahara Desert to deliver the hijacked nuclear warheads safely to the Argentinian military. All this turns sour as he realises that his common law wife (Charlize Theron) has been working for the evildoers. Also you see the zany tomfoolery of a smart alec soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when captured by the the bad guys says: "You crazy, muthafucka?" It won't be easy seeing that a nosy reporter (Robert DiNero) has information regarding his lackluster life of crime. Just as our heroes are departing on their dangerous journey, they slowly join in on a sing-along of Love that Dirty Water much to the dismay of the NCRP . In the eleventh hour the President delivers a speech to the citizens of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding drags on he says: " Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" A PMRC computer expert in the crowd retorts: "He better be right... for our sake." Coming next summer. This film is not yet rated.
