The Plot... A plane loaded with CIA information has been pilfered by a former U.S. General (Anthony Quinn). With the aid of a contracted explosives hacker, the CIA hopes to intercept the stolen goods and return them to their original owner. The NCAA, with the assistance of Austin Bracespeed (George Clooney), must mountain bike through the San Fransisco to return the borrowed nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the Icelandic government. As if this wasn't enough, he has less than 6 minutes to do it. With the assistance of a grizzled navy seal (Robert Duvall), our hero must jet ski through the New Jersy Turnpike to deliver the borrowed thermo-nuclear explosives promptly to the English military. The Predicament turns sour as he figures out that his old flame (Angelina Jolie) has been kidnapped by the the bad guys. Added to the mix we have the screwball tomfoolery of a smart alec black man (Chris Tucker) who when kidnapped by the evildoers says: "What the FUCK!?!?" However this will prove difficult because a nosy reporter (Lawrence Fishburne) has secrets about his sordid past. Just as our heroes are setting off on their dangerous mission, they slowly lapse into a sing-along of Magic Carpet Ride much to the dismay of NASA . At the final moment the President fumbles through a speech to the citizens of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding happens he says: "Terrorism in all its diabolical forms will not be tolerated. Drop the bombs, Commander." A NASA explosives expert watching at home replies: "He better be right... for our sake." Coming next fall. This film is not yet rated.
