The Plot... A train loaded with CIA information has been borrowed by a lunatic with good intentions (Ed Harris). With the assistance of a contracted weapons expert, the ATF hopes to intercept the borrowed computer chips and return them to their owner. The NCAA, with the help of Carter Bracewright (Nicholas Cage), must race through the Swiss Alps to deliver the borrowed thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the American people. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has less than 8 minutes to do it. With the assistance of a retired stick in the mud (Jon Voight), the good guys must motorbike through the rain forest to deliver the borrowed CIA information safely to the American military. All this turns sour as he figures out that his little sister (Angelina Jolie) has been working with the the villain. Also there is the screwball tomfoolery of a jive talkin' black man (Dave Chapelle) who when kidnapped by the the villain says: "Wassup Muthafuckas?" All this won't be easy because a cop with a vendetta (Samuel L. Jackson) has information regarding his messy criminal record. Just as the good guy are marching off on their suicidal mission, they poorly lapse into a sing-along of September '63 much to the chagrin of NASA . In a stunning climax the President delivers a decree to the citizens of the world. While this moment of truth happens he says: "This has been the most difficult decision I have ever had to make. Drop the bombs, Commander." A NASA computer hacker in the crowd retorts: "I just hope he's right." Coming this summer.
