The FBI, with the assistance of Jackson Menchgood (Ben Affleck), must jet ski through the rain forest to return the pilfered nuclear warheads promptly to the English government. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has only 15 minutes to do it. With the assistance of a crochety veteran (Sean Connery), the good guys must race through the New Jersy Turnpike to return the stolen lethal poisonous gas in a timely manner to the Icelandic people. All this turns sour as he figures out that his 8th grade Social Studies teacher (Charlize Theron) has been carjacked by the the villain. Added to the mix you see the zany antics of a smart alec soul brother (Dave Chapelle) who when captured by the evildoers says: "Wassup Muthafuckas?" However this will prove difficult because a nosy reporter (Ray Liotta) has information concerning his messy life of crime. Just as the good guys are setting off on their perlious journey, they suddenly join in on a sing-along of Hotel California much to the embarrassment of NASA . In the eleventh hour the President fumbles through a decree to the governments of the world. As this moment of truth happens he says: "When I took office, they never told me THIS would happen. Drop the bombs, Commander." A NASA weapons expert in the crowd replies: "I just hope we're not too late."
