The Plot... A jet loaded with nuclear warheads has been hijacked by computer genius (Anthony Quinn). With the assistance of a contracted chemical specialist, the CIA hopes to intercept the hijacked computer chips and get them back to their original owner. The PMRC, with the help of Humphrey Bracewright (Nicholas Cage), must mountain bike through the San Fransisco to return the hijacked thermo-nuclear explosives safely to the American military. And if this wasn't enough, he has less than 10 minutes to do it. With the help of a grizzled weapons specialist (Bruce Willis), the good guy must skateboard through the San Fransisco to return the hijacked CIA information promptly to the American people. All this worsens as he figures out that his 8th grade Social Studies teacher (Angelina Jolie) has been working for the evildoers. Added to the mix you see the loveable antics of a sass-talking soul brother (Dave Chapelle) who when captured by the evildoers says: "Y'all be trippin' or somethin', shit." It won't be easy because an old rival with a score to settle (Lawrence Fishburne) has information pertaining to his messy life of crime. Just as our hero are leaving on their perlious mission, they stupidly join in on a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the chagrin of the ATF . In the eleventh hour the President fumbles through a decree to the peoples of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding happens he says: "Terrorism in all its diabolical forms will not be tolerated. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" An ATF chemical specialist in the crowd retorts: "I hope god is on our side." Coming this summer. Rated R Running time 186 minutes Directed by: Ridley Scott Projected Critic Rating:
