The Plot... A cargo train full of lethal poisonous gas has been borrowed by a former U.S. General (Ed Harris). With the help of a government chemical hacker, the FBI hopes to intercept the pilfered computer chips and return them to their rightful owner. The CIA, with the help of Minneapolis Botchwinch (George Clooney), must race through the Sahara Desert to return the stolen nuclear warheads promptly to the Argentinian people. As if it wasn't hard enough, he has a mere 10 minutes to do it. With the help of an old marine (Robert Duvall), the good guys must jet ski through the rain forest to return the hijacked nuclear warheads safely to the Icelandic people. The situation turns sour as he figures out that his high school sweetheart (Charlize Theron) has been working with the the bad guys. Along with this you see the madcap tomfoolery of a jive talkin' black man (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the evildoers says: "You crazy, muthafucka?" However this won't be easy because a cop with a vendetta (Robert DiNero) has secrets about his sordid past. Just as our heroes are setting out on their suicidal journey, they stupidly join in on a sing-along of Werewolves of London much to the embarrassment of the PMRC . In a stunning climax the President issues a decree to the governments of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding unfolds he says: "Mankind is a creature of survival. Drop the bombs, Commander." A CIA explosives expert in the crowd answers this with: "I just hope we're not too late."
