The Plot... A train loaded with lethal poisonous gas has been pilfered by a good guy gone bad (Robert Vaughn). With the aid of a government weapons hacker, the FBI hopes to reclaim the stolen goods and return them to their rightful owner. The PMRC, with the assistance of Bufford Wrightstitch (Tom Cruise), must race through the rain forest to deliver the stolen nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the Argentinian government. As if this wasn't enough, he has a mere 10 hours to do it. With the aid of a leather-faced marine (Robert Duvall), the good guys must skateboard through the Sahara Desert to deliver the hijacked lethal poisonous gas safely to the Argentinian people. All this worsens as he realises that his wife (Nicole Kidman) has been working with the the villain. Along with this there is the madcap antics of a jive talkin' black man (Dave Chapelle) who when kidnapped by the the bad guys says: "When I get outta here, I'm gonna kick yo WHITE ASS!" All this won't be easy because a nosy reporter (Al Pacino) has information regarding his sordid criminal record. Just as the good guys are departing on their dangerous journey, they suddenly all burst into a sing-along of Hotel California much to the chagrin of NASA . At the final moment the President delivers a speech to the governments of the world. As this dramatic grandstanding drags on he says: " Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" An NCAA chemical specialist in the crowd answers this with: "I just hope he's right."
