The Plot... A train loaded with nuclear warheads has been pilfered by the most dangerous terrorist in the world (Anthony Quinn). With the assistance of a government weapons specialist, the CIA hopes to intercept the borrowed goods and get them back to their original owner. The NCAA, with the assistance of Minneapolis Speedgood (Tom Cruise), must ski through the San Fransisco to return the hijacked nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the Japanese military. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has a mere 10 minutes to do it. With the assistance of a grizzled navy seal (Robert Duvall), the good guys must skateboard through the San Fransisco to deliver the hijacked nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the Argentinian military. The situation turns sour as he figures out that his common law wife (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been carjacked by the the villain. Added to the mix we have the zany slapstick of a sass-talking soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when kidnapped by the the bad guys says: "Wassup my niggas?" All this will prove difficult seeing that an old rival with a score to settle (Lawrence Fishburne) has information concerning his ugly past. Just as the good guy are setting off on their perlious journey, they stupidly all burst into a sing-along of September '63 much to the chagrin of the FBI . In the eleventh hour the President recites a decree to the governments of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding drags on he says: "Mankind is a creature of survival. This is the dawn of a new tomorrow." An FBI explosives expert watching at home retorts: "He better be right... for our sake."
