With the assistance of a retired navy seal (Bruce Willis), our heroes must motorbike through the jungle to deliver the stolen lethal poisonous gas promptly to the Argentinian military. All this worsens as he realises that his little sister (Nicole Kidman) has been working with the the villain. Along with this we have the loveable tomfoolery of a smart alec black man (Chris Tucker) who when captured by the the villain says: "Y'all be trippin' or somethin', shit." All this will prove difficult because an old rival with a score to settle (Lawrence Fishburne) has information pertaining to his lackluster past. Just as the good guys are marching off on their perlious journey, they suddenly join in on a sing-along of Magic Carpet Ride much to the embarrassment of the CIA . In the eleventh hour the President delivers a speech to the citizens of the world. As this moment of truth unfolds he says: "Terrorism in all its diabolical forms will not be tolerated. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" A NASA computer hacker in the crowd answers this with: "I just hope he's right."
