The Plot... A donkey train full of government secrets has been stolen by military genius (Robert Vaughn). With the assistance of a private weapons expert, the ATF hopes to intercept the stolen technologies and return them to their rightful owner. The CIA, with the help of Bufford Goodstitch (Steve Buschemi), must ski through the San Fransisco to deliver the stolen nuclear warheads safely to the Japanese military. As if this wasn't enough, he has less than 10 weeks to do it. With the aid of a crochety weapons specialist (Robert Duvall), the good guy must skateboard through the San Fransisco to deliver the borrowed lethal poisonous gas safely to the Japanese government. The situation turns sour as he realises that his old flame (Nicole Kidman) has been carjacked by the evildoers. Also we have the madcap antics of a smart alec soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the evildoers says: "All I know is when I get out of this here cell I'm gonna kick whitey's ass!" It won't be easy because a nosy reporter (Al Pacino) has information concerning his sordid life of crime. Just as the good guys are setting off on their perlious journey, they suddenly all burst into a sing-along of Magic Carpet Ride much to the chagrin of the PMRC . At the final moment the President fumbles through a speech to the peoples of the world. While this moment of truth happens he says: "Terrorism in all its diabolical forms will not be tolerated. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" A CIA chemical expert in the crowd replies: "I just hope he's right."
