The Plot... A cargo donkey train loaded with nuclear warheads has been borrowed by a former U.S. General (Gene Hackman). With the assistance of a private chemical hacker, the NCRP hopes to reclaim the hijacked goods and return them to their owner. The CIA, with the help of Minneapolis Speedpress (Nicholas Cage), must race through the Swiss Alps to return the pilfered nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the English people. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has a mere 10 minutes to do it. With the aid of an old marine (Bruce Willis), our heroes must mountain bike through the New Jersy Turnpike to return the hijacked lethal poisonous gas in a timely manner to the Japanese government. The Predicament turns sour as he realises that his old flame (Nicole Kidman) has been working for the evildoers. Also you see the zany tomfoolery of a sass-talking soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the evildoers says: "When I get outta here, I'm gonna kick yo WHITE ASS!" All this will prove difficult seeing that a nosy reporter (Lawrence Fishburne) has information pertaining to his messy criminal record. Just as the good guys are marching off on their perlious journey, they stupidly lapse into a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the dismay of the PMRC . In the eleventh hour the President fumbles through a speech to the peoples of the world. While this moment of truth happens he says: "Nothing could have ever prepared me for this day. This is the dawn of a new tomorrow." A PMRC chemical hacker watching a TV in a store window retorts: "I hope god is on our side." Coming this fall. This film is not yet rated.
