The Plot... A bus full of CIA information has been hijacked by computer genius (John Lithgow). With the assistance of a contracted computer hacker, the ATF hopes to reclaim the borrowed goods and return them to their native land. The NCAA, with the help of Carter Goodspeed (Will Smith), must race through the Sahara Desert to deliver the pilfered thermo-nuclear explosives in a timely manner to the Japanese government. And if this wasn't enough, he has only 12 weeks to do it. With the aid of a crochety veteran (Jon Voight), our hero must mountain bike through the rain forest to return the pilfered nuclear warheads in a timely manner to the English government. All this turns sour as he figures out that his common law wife (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been carjacked by the the bad guys. Also there is the zany antics of a sass-talking black man (Dave Chapelle) who when captured by the evildoers says: "You crazy, muthafucka?" It will prove difficult because an old rival with a score to settle (Al Pacino) has secrets about his sordid criminal record. Just as our heroes are setting out on their dangerous journey, they suddenly join in on a sing-along of Love that Dirty Water much to the chagrin of NASA . At the final moment the President delivers a speech to the governments of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding drags on he says: "Terrorism in all its diabolical forms will not be tolerated. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" A CIA chemical expert in the crowd answers this with: "He better be right... for our sake."
