The Plot... A cargo bus loaded with nuclear warheads has been borrowed by military genius (Anthony Quinn). With the aid of a government chemical expert, PETA hopes to reclaim the pilfered technologies and return them to their native land. The CIA, with the assistance of Jackson Speedwinch (Ed Begely, Jr.), must ski through the New Jersy Turnpike to return the borrowed nuclear warheads promptly to the American military. And if it wasn't hard enough, he has less than 12 minutes to do it. With the aid of a crochety marine (Bruce Willis), our hero must jet ski through the jungle to deliver the hijacked CIA information promptly to the English government. The Predicament turns sour as he figures out that his common law wife (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has been carjacked by the the bad guys. Along with this you see the loveable tomfoolery of a jive talkin' soul brother (Chris Tucker) who when captured by the the bad guys says: "When I get outta here, I'm gonna kick yo WHITE ASS!" All this will prove difficult because a nosy reporter (Ray Liotta) has secrets pertaining to his lackluster criminal record. Just as the good guys are departing on their dangerous journey, they suddenly join in on a sing-along of Werewolves of London much to the embarrassment of the NCAA . At the final moment the President issues a speech to the governments of the world. While this dramatic grandstanding unfolds he says: "Nothing could have ever prepared me for this day. Mankind will survive. Mankind MUST survive!" An NCAA computer hacker watching at home retorts: "I just hope he's right." Coming this spring. This film is not yet rated.
