...sophisticated military grade explosives had been found in medicine containers being carried by the Algerian national who was nabbed trying to cross into Washington State from Canada with a trunkload full of DIY bomb-making material. And Federal prosecutors announced they'd found a link between Ressam and Lucia Garofalo, the Canadian woman arrested last week trying to cross into Vermont with an Algerian companion. Information supplied by a "reliable government" said both were members of a Canada-based cell of an Algerian terrorist organization, the Armed Islamic Group...

But alas, they are lost among an irritating and unnecessary interrogation that takes place between our hero and two imaginary cops. This surreal exchange serves no point other than...
...evil genius Casanova Frankenstein (Geoffrey Rush), they discover there are nicely delineated levels of mediocrity. The Waffler, with his magic Truth Syrup, White Flight and the Black Menace ("We work together")--all are unworthy of joining even this pickup team. But there is talent out there. The Bowler (Janeane Garofalo) has a magic ball with her father's head inside; Dad nags her from beyond the grave. Spleen (Paul Reubens) unleashes fart darts, silent but deadly. The Sphinx (Wes Studi) has a profoundly inane aphorism for every tight spot. Invisible Boy (Kel Mitchell) may one day live...
