The Plot... A bus loaded with nuclear warheads has been pilfered by a lunatic with good intentions (Anthony Quinn). With the assistance of a government weapons expert, the NCRP hopes to reclaim the hijacked goods and get them back to their native land. The PMRC, with the help of Bufford Henchgood (George Clooney), must skateboard through the Sahara Desert to deliver the pilfered thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the English people. As if this wasn't enough, he has only 6 minutes to do it. With the help of a grizzled weapons specialist (Jon Voight), the good guys must motorbike through the rain forest to deliver the stolen CIA information in a timely manner to the Argentinian government. All this turns sour as he realises that his common law wife (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been working with the evildoers. Also we have the screwball tomfoolery of a sass-talking soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the the bad guys says: "What the FUCK!?!?" All this won't be easy seeing that an old rival with a score to settle (Robert DiNero) has information pertaining to his sloppy criminal record. Just as our heroes are setting out on their dangerous mission, they slowly join in on a sing-along of September '63 much to the chagrin of the FBI . At the final moment the President recites a decree to the governments of the world. While this moment of truth happens he says: "Terrorism in all its diabolical forms will not be tolerated. This is the dawn of a new tomorrow." An FBI explosives specialist in the crowd retorts: "He better be right... for our sake."
