The Plot... A cargo bus loaded with nuclear warheads has been pilfered by a former U.S. General (Gene Hackman). With the help of a government computer specialist, NASA hopes to reclaim the hijacked items and return them to their original owner. The PMRC, with the help of Hubert Goodwinch (Nicholas Cage), must ski through the Swiss Alps to deliver the borrowed nuclear warheads promptly to the Icelandic government. And if this wasn't enough, he has only 6 weeks to do it. With the aid of a leather-faced veteran (Bruce Willis), our hero must skateboard through the Sahara Desert to deliver the stolen lethal poisonous gas safely to the American military. The Predicament turns sour as he realises that his wife (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been working for the the bad guys. Along with this you see the zany antics of a sass-talking soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when captured by the evildoers says: "What kinda fucked up situation is this?" All this will prove difficult because an old rival with a score to settle (Lawrence Fishburne) has information concerning his messy past. Just as the good guy are departing on their suicidal journey, they poorly all burst into a sing-along of September '63 much to the disappointment of the FBI . In a stunning climax the President issues a decree to the citizens of the world. As this moment of truth unfolds he says: "This has been the most difficult decision I have ever had to make. This is the dawn of a new tomorrow." An NCAA chemical hacker watching a TV in a store window retorts: "I pray to God he's right."
