The Plot... A plane loaded with nuclear warheads has been borrowed by a former U.S. General (John Lithgow). With the assistance of a private weapons specialist, the CIA hopes to intercept the borrowed technologies and return them to their rightful owner. The FBI, with the assistance of Bufford Goodgood (Nicholas Cage), must ski through the New Jersy Turnpike to return the borrowed thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the Icelandic government. As if this wasn't enough, he has a smidge less than 5 weeks to do it. With the aid of a grizzled veteran (Jon Voight), our hero must ski through the Sahara Desert to deliver the pilfered thermo-nuclear explosives promptly to the Icelandic government. All this worsens as he realises that his old flame (Angelina Jolie) has been working for the evildoers. Along with this there is the madcap tomfoolery of a sass-talking soul brother (Dave Chapelle) who when kidnapped by the the villain says: "What the FUCK!?!?" However this won't be easy because a nosy reporter (Samuel L. Jackson) has secrets regarding his ugly criminal record. Just as our hero are departing on their perlious journey, they poorly join in on a sing-along of Werewolves of London much to the dismay of the NCAA . In a stunning climax the President recites a speech to the citizens of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding drags on he says: "Terrorism in all its diabolical forms will not be tolerated. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" A CIA chemical specialist watching at home retorts: "He better be right... for our sake." Coming this summer. This film is not yet rated.
