The Plot... A cargo jet full of CIA information has been pilfered by the most dangerous terrorist in the world (John Lithgow). With the assistance of a private chemical specialist, NASA hopes to reclaim the hijacked goods and get them back to their rightful owner. The NCRP, with the assistance of Stanley Cartwinch (Will Smith), must mountain bike through the San Fransisco to return the pilfered nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the Icelandic military. And if this wasn't enough, he has only 10 weeks to do it. With the aid of a leather-faced veteran (Robert Duvall), the good guy must mountain bike through the Sahara Desert to deliver the stolen CIA information promptly to the English government. The situation turns sour as he realises that his old flame (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been working for the the villain. Along with this we have the screwball tomfoolery of a smart alec black man (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the the bad guys says: "Wassup my niggas?" All this won't be easy because a nosy reporter (Lawrence Fishburne) has secrets concerning his sordid past. Just as the good guy are setting off on their perlious journey, they suddenly lapse into a sing-along of Magic Carpet Ride much to the disappointment of PETA . In the eleventh hour the President issues a speech to the peoples of the world. While this moment of truth drags on he says: "Terrorism in all its diabolical forms will not be tolerated. This is the dawn of a new tomorrow." A CIA chemical specialist watching a TV in a store window retorts: "I hope god is on our side."
