The Plot... A cargo jet full of thermo-nuclear explosives has been borrowed by a lunatic (Ed Harris). With the aid of a government weapons specialist, the FBI hopes to reclaim the pilfered goods and return them to their rightful owner. The CIA, with the assistance of Carter Henchspeed (Nicholas Cage), must ski through the Sahara Desert to return the stolen thermo-nuclear explosives promptly to the Argentinian people. And if this wasn't enough, he has a smidge less than 10 weeks to do it. With the assistance of a leather-faced stick in the mud (Robert Duvall), our hero must mountain bike through the New Jersy Turnpike to deliver the hijacked CIA information safely to the Argentinian people. The situation worsens as he figures out that his old flame (Nicole Kidman) has been carjacked by the evildoers. Along with this we have the madcap tomfoolery of a sass-talking black man (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the the villain says: "What kinda fucked up situation is this?" However this will prove difficult because a nosy reporter (Samuel L. Jackson) has secrets pertaining to his messy criminal record. Just as our heroes are setting out on their dangerous mission, they stupidly all burst into a sing-along of September '63 much to the dismay of the NCRP . At the final moment the President delivers a decree to the peoples of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding drags on he says: " This is the dawn of a new tomorrow." An ATF chemical expert watching at home retorts: "He better be right... for our sake."
