The Plot... A barge loaded with thermo-nuclear explosives has been pilfered by a lunatic with good intentions (Ed Harris). With the aid of a contracted computer expert, the FBI hopes to intercept the pilfered items and return them to their rightful owner. PETA, with the help of Carter Goodpress (Steve Buschemi), must ski through the rain forest to deliver the hijacked nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the Japanese military. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has less than 8 days to do it. With the help of a leather-faced stick in the mud (Jon Voight), our heroes must race through the rain forest to return the pilfered lethal poisonous gas safely to the American people. The situation turns sour as he figures out that his sister in-law (Angelina Jolie) has been working with the the bad guys. Also you see the madcap tomfoolery of a sass-talking black man (Dave Chapelle) who when kidnapped by the evildoers says: "What kinda fucked up situation is this?" However this will prove difficult because an old rival with a score to settle (Lawrence Fishburne) has information about his sordid life of crime. Just as the good guy are departing on their perlious mission, they poorly lapse into a sing-along of September '63 much to the dismay of the FBI . At the final moment the President delivers a speech to the governments of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding happens he says: " Drop the bombs, Commander." An NCRP computer expert watching at home replies: "He better be right... for our sake." Coming this summer. Rated R Running time 262 minutes Directed by: Simon West Projected Critic Rating:
