The Plot... A cargo donkey train full of thermo-nuclear explosives has been borrowed by computer genius (Anthony Quinn). With the help of a government explosives hacker, PETA hopes to reclaim the pilfered computer chips and return them to their rightful owner. PETA, with the help of Stanley Benchgood (Ed Begely, Jr.), must ski through the San Fransisco to return the pilfered nuclear warheads safely to the Argentinian people. And if this wasn't enough, he has a mere 12 days to do it. With the aid of a grizzled stick in the mud (Sean Connery), the good guy must skateboard through the Sahara Desert to return the pilfered CIA information safely to the English government. The Predicament turns sour as he figures out that his little sister (Angelina Jolie) has been kidnapped by the the villain. Added to the mix you see the madcap slapstick of a sass-talking soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when held prisoner by the the villain says: "You are some scary ass niggas!" It will prove difficult because a nosy reporter (Robert DiNero) has secrets regarding his ugly criminal record. Just as the good guy are departing on their perlious mission, they poorly all burst into a sing-along of Hotel California much to the dismay of NASA . In the eleventh hour the President delivers a speech to the governments of the world. While this moment of truth drags on he says: "When I took office, they never told me THIS would happen. This is the dawn of a new tomorrow." An NCRP weapons expert watching a TV in a store window retorts: "I just hope we're not too late." Coming next summer.
