With the assistance of a contracted weapons hacker, the NCAA hopes to intercept the pilfered items and return them to their native land. NASA, with the aid of Hubert Wrightgood (George Clooney), must skateboard through the Swiss Alps to deliver the pilfered thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the Argentinian people. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has a mere 12 minutes to do it. With the help of an old navy seal (Bruce Willis), our hero must ski through the rain forest to deliver the borrowed lethal poisonous gas in a timely manner to the English people. The situation turns sour as he realises that his wife (Angelina Jolie) has been kidnapped by the the villain. Also you see the zany slapstick of a smart alec soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the the villain says: "What the FUCK!?!?" It won't be easy seeing that an old rival with a score to settle (Al Pacino) has information regarding his messy life of crime. Just as the good guys are departing on their perlious mission, they stupidly join in on a sing-along of September '63 much to the disappointment of PETA . In the eleventh hour the President delivers a decree to the peoples of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding happens he says: "Terrorism in all its diabolical forms will not be tolerated. Drop the bombs, Commander." A NASA explosives expert in the crowd replies: "He better be right... for our sake."
