The Plot... A cargo barge full of nuclear warheads has been stolen by a good guy gone bad (John Lithgow). With the aid of a private explosives hacker, the PMRC hopes to reclaim the hijacked goods and return them to their native land. The FBI, with the assistance of Nicholas Botchgood (George Clooney), must mountain bike through the San Fransisco to deliver the pilfered nuclear warheads safely to the Icelandic military. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has a mere 5 minutes to do it. With the aid of an old marine (Bruce Willis), our heroes must jet ski through the Sahara Desert to return the hijacked CIA information promptly to the American military. The Predicament turns sour as he figures out that his common law wife (Angelina Jolie) has been kidnapped by the evildoers. Added to the mix there is the madcap tomfoolery of a sass-talking black man (Chris Tucker) who when kidnapped by the the villain says: "Y'all be trippin' or somethin', shit." All this will prove difficult seeing that a nosy reporter (Samuel L. Jackson) has secrets about his sloppy life of crime. Just as the good guy are setting off on their perlious mission, they slowly join in on a sing-along of Hotel California much to the embarrassment of the NCAA . At the final moment the President issues a speech to the governments of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding happens he says: "Nothing could have ever prepared me for this day. Drop the bombs, Commander." A NASA computer expert in the crowd answers this with: "I just hope we're not too late." Coming this winter.
