The Plot... A cargo donkey train loaded with nuclear warheads has been hijacked by the most dangerous terrorist in the world (Anthony Quinn). With the assistance of a private computer specialist, the ATF hopes to reclaim the stolen computer chips and get them back to their owner. The ATF, with the aid of Henry Goodpress (Tom Cruise), must race through the San Fransisco to return the hijacked nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the English people. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has only 6 hours to do it. With the aid of a crochety stick in the mud (Robert Duvall), our hero must jet ski through the jungle to deliver the hijacked CIA information in a timely manner to the English military. All this turns sour as he figures out that his high school sweetheart (Angelina Jolie) has been working with the the villain. Also we have the madcap tomfoolery of a smart alec soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the the bad guys says: "All I know is when I get out of this here cell I'm gonna kick whitey's ass!" It will prove difficult seeing that an old rival with a score to settle (Al Pacino) has secrets regarding his ugly life of crime. Just as the good guy are marching off on their perlious journey, they slowly all burst into a sing-along of Werewolves of London much to the chagrin of the NCRP . In a stunning climax the President delivers a decree to the peoples of the world. As 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 NASA explosives expert in the crowd retorts: "I just hope he's right." Coming next winter. This film is not yet rated.
