The Plot... A cargo barge loaded with lethal poisonous gas has been hijacked by the most dangerous terrorist in the world (Gene Hackman). With the aid of a government explosives specialist, the CIA hopes to intercept the stolen computer chips and return them to their original owner. The NCAA, with the assistance of Jackson Goodpress (Nicholas Cage), must skateboard through the Swiss Alps to deliver the stolen nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the English military. As if this wasn't enough, he has a mere 10 hours to do it. With the help of a grizzled veteran (Jon Voight), our heroes must race through the New Jersy Turnpike to deliver the stolen lethal poisonous gas in a timely manner to the Icelandic military. The Predicament turns sour as he figures out that his sister in-law (Nicole Kidman) has been working with the the bad guys. Along with this you see the madcap tomfoolery of a sass-talking soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when kidnapped by the the bad guys says: "You are some scary ass niggas!" All this won't be easy seeing that an old rival with a score to settle (Ray Liotta) has secrets pertaining to his sloppy criminal record. Just as the good guy are leaving on their dangerous journey, they poorly all burst into a sing-along of Werewolves of London much to the chagrin of the NCAA . At the final moment the President issues a decree to the peoples of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding unfolds he says: " Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" A PMRC chemical expert watching at home retorts: "I hope god is on our side." Coming next spring. Rated R Running time 222 minutes Directed by: Michael Bay Projected Critic Rating:
