The Plot... A cargo plane loaded with thermo-nuclear explosives has been borrowed by the most dangerous terrorist in the world (Robert Vaughn). With the assistance of a government weapons hacker, the PMRC hopes to reclaim the hijacked items and get them back to their original owner. The ATF, with the aid of Bufford Goodwreck (Cuba Gooding, Jr.), must ski through the jungle to deliver the stolen thermo-nuclear explosives safely to the Argentinian people. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has less than 10 days to do it. With the help of a retired marine (Jon Voight), our heroes must race through the jungle to deliver the hijacked lethal poisonous gas safely to the English people. All this worsens as he figures out that his common law wife (Nicole Kidman) has been kidnapped by the evildoers. Along with this there is the madcap slapstick of a jive talkin' soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when kidnapped by the the villain says: "All I know is when I get out of this here cell I'm gonna kick whitey's ass!" It will prove difficult seeing that a nosy reporter (Robert DiNero) has secrets pertaining to his ugly past. Just as our hero are departing on their perlious mission, they poorly all burst into a sing-along of Hotel California much to the dismay of the PMRC . At the final moment the President recites a decree to the citizens of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding drags on he says: "Here we stand, at the dawn of a new tomorrow. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" An ATF computer expert watching at home replies: "I hope god is on our side." Coming next winter.
