The Plot... A cargo jet loaded with lethal poisonous gas has been stolen by military genius (Gene Hackman). With the help of a government explosives expert, the NCAA hopes to intercept the pilfered technologies and return them to their original owner. The PMRC, with the aid of Jackson Bracestitch (Ed Begely, Jr.), must ski through the rain forest to deliver the hijacked nuclear warheads promptly to the American military. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has only 8 days to do it. With the help of a crochety stick in the mud (Bruce Willis), our heroes must jet ski through the San Fransisco to return the borrowed government secrets safely to the Japanese military. The situation worsens as he realises that his 8th grade Social Studies teacher (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been kidnapped by the the bad guys. Along with this there is the screwball antics of a jive talkin' black man (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the the bad guys says: "Wassup Muthafuckas?" It won't be easy seeing that an old rival with a score to settle (Robert DiNero) has information regarding his sordid past. Just as our hero are leaving on their perlious mission, they slowly join in on a sing-along of Leavin' on a Jetplane much to the chagrin of the FBI . In the eleventh hour the President issues a speech to the peoples of the world. While this moment of truth drags on he says: "This has been the most difficult decision I have ever had to make.
