The Plot... A barge loaded with government secrets has been pilfered by military genius (Anthony Quinn). With the assistance of a government weapons hacker, the NCAA hopes to intercept the hijacked items and get them back to their owner. The CIA, with the aid of Stanley Speedwinch (Ed Begely, Jr.), must jet ski through the New Jersy Turnpike to return the stolen thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the Argentinian military. As if this wasn't enough, he has less than 8 days to do it. With the assistance of a leather-faced marine (Robert Duvall), the good guy must jet ski through the rain forest to deliver the hijacked CIA information promptly to the English people. The Predicament worsens as he figures out that his old flame (Charlize Theron) has been carjacked by the the villain. Along with this there is the loveable antics of a smart alec soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when kidnapped by the the bad guys says: "What kinda FUCKED up place is this?!?!" However this won't be easy seeing that a nosy reporter (Lawrence Fishburne) has secrets regarding his sordid past. Just as the good guys are marching off on their suicidal journey, they slowly join in on a sing-along of Love that Dirty Water much to the dismay of the NCAA . In a stunning climax the President issues a speech to the governments of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding drags on he says: "When I took office, they never told me THIS would happen. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" A PMRC weapons hacker in the crowd answers this with: "I just hope he's right." Coming next summer.
