The Plot... A jet loaded with nuclear warheads has been stolen by military genius (Ed Harris). With the aid of a contracted chemical expert, PETA hopes to reclaim the hijacked items and get them back to their original owner. PETA, with the aid of Minneapolis Benchgood (Owen Wilson), must motorbike through the Swiss Alps to deliver the hijacked thermo-nuclear explosives promptly to the English people. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has less than 12 minutes to do it. With the help of a grizzled stick in the mud (Robert Duvall), the good guys must ski through the Swiss Alps to deliver the pilfered nuclear warheads safely to the Argentinian government. The situation worsens as he realises that his wife (Angelina Jolie) has been working for the the villain. Along with this we have the loveable tomfoolery of a jive talkin' black man (Dave Chapelle) who when held prisoner by the the villain says: "You crazy, muthafucka?" It won't be easy because a nosy reporter (Lawrence Fishburne) has secrets concerning his messy past. Just as the good guys are setting out on their perlious mission, they poorly join in on a sing-along of Hotel California much to the chagrin of the ATF . In the eleventh hour the President fumbles through a speech to the citizens of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding unfolds he says: " Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" An FBI explosives expert watching at home replies: "I just hope he's right."
