The Plot... A bus loaded with government secrets has been stolen by computer genius (John Lithgow). With the aid of a private chemical expert, the NCRP hopes to intercept the pilfered items and get them back to their native land. The FBI, with the assistance of Austin Wrightwreck (George Clooney), must jet ski through the San Fransisco to deliver the borrowed nuclear warheads promptly to the Icelandic people. As if this wasn't enough, he has less than 12 weeks to do it. With the help of an old veteran (Robert Duvall), the good guys must jet ski through the jungle to return the stolen nuclear warheads safely to the English government. All this turns sour as he realises that his common law wife (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been working with the the villain. Along with this we have the loveable tomfoolery of a sass-talking black man (Chris Tucker) who when captured by the the villain says: "When I get outta here, I'm gonna kick yo WHITE ASS!" However this won't be easy seeing that a nosy reporter (Samuel L. Jackson) has secrets concerning his messy criminal record. Just as our hero are departing on their perlious mission, they poorly join in on a sing-along of Magic Carpet Ride much to the embarrassment of the NCRP . In a stunning climax the President fumbles through a decree to the citizens of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding happens he says: "This has been the most difficult decision I have ever had to make. Drop the bombs, Commander." A CIA explosives specialist watching at home retorts: "I hope god is on our side." Coming this fall. Rated R Running time 294 minutes Directed by: Wes Craven Projected Critic Rating:
