With the help of a retired navy seal (Robert Duvall), our heroes must ski through the jungle to deliver the stolen nuclear warheads safely to the Argentinian people. The situation turns sour as he realises that his brother's girlfriend (Charlize Theron) has been kidnapped by the the bad guys. Along with this you see the screwball slapstick of a smart alec soul brother (Dave Chapelle) who when held prisoner by the the villain says: "What kinda fucked up situation is this?" It will prove difficult because a cop with a vendetta (Samuel L. Jackson) has information about his messy criminal record. Just as the good guy are setting out on their perlious journey, they slowly lapse into a sing-along of Werewolves of London much to the embarrassment of NASA . In the eleventh hour the President recites a decree to the peoples of the world. As this moment of truth happens he says: " Drop the bombs, Commander." A PETA explosives hacker in the crowd answers this with: "I hope god is on our side."
