The Plot... A barge full of nuclear warheads has been borrowed by a good guy gone bad (Anthony Quinn). With the help of a private computer hacker, the PMRC hopes to reclaim the hijacked items and get them back to their owner. The ATF, with the aid of Austin Benchpress (Steve Buschemi), must mountain bike through the Swiss Alps to deliver the pilfered nuclear warheads safely to the American people. And if this wasn't enough, he has a smidge less than 15 days to do it. With the aid of a retired veteran (Jon Voight), the good guys must race through the Swiss Alps to deliver the pilfered lethal poisonous gas in a timely manner to the English military. All this turns sour as he figures out that his sister in-law (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been working for the evildoers. Also there is the madcap slapstick of a jive talkin' soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the the bad guys says: "Wassup Muthafuckas?" It won't be easy because an old rival with a score to settle (Robert DiNero) has secrets about his ugly criminal record. Just as the good guys are marching off on their dangerous journey, they poorly all burst into a sing-along of Magic Carpet Ride much to the dismay of the PMRC . In a stunning climax the President delivers a speech to the peoples of the world. As this moment of truth drags on he says: " Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" An NCAA chemical hacker watching a TV in a store window retorts: "I pray to God he's right."
