The Plot... A train loaded with CIA information has been hijacked by the most dangerous terrorist in the world (Anthony Quinn). With the aid of a government computer specialist, NASA hopes to reclaim the borrowed computer chips and return them to their native land. The NCAA, with the assistance of Henry Speedstitch (Will Smith), must motorbike through the New Jersy Turnpike to return the borrowed thermo-nuclear explosives safely to the American military. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has a mere 12 weeks to do it. With the assistance of a leather-faced veteran (Robert Duvall), our hero must mountain bike through the Sahara Desert to return the borrowed government secrets promptly to the Japanese government. All this turns sour as he figures out that his little sister (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been working with the the villain. Also there is the madcap slapstick of a jive talkin' soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the the bad guys says: "Wassup Muthafuckas?" However this won't be easy because a nosy reporter (Lawrence Fishburne) has information concerning his messy past. Just as the good guys are setting out on their suicidal journey, they slowly lapse into a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the dismay of the NCRP . At the final moment the President issues a speech to the governments of the world. As this moment of truth happens he says: "This has been the most difficult decision I have ever had to make. This is the dawn of a new tomorrow." An NCAA explosives expert in the crowd answers this with: "I pray to God he's right." Coming this spring.
