An assassin posing as a trade-show producer fixes his crosshairs on a Middle Eastern oil minister while maintaining his cover by organizing a high-profile wedding in this
satirical action comedy starring
John Cusack,
Hilary Duff, and
Marisa Tomei. A private American corporation run by a former U.S. vice president (
Dan Aykroyd) is occupying the war-torn nation of Turaqistan, but a powerful Middle Eastern oil minister is preventing them from taking total advantage of the situation. In order to gain a monopoly on the lucrative opportunities that Turaqistan has to offer, the CEO of the corporation hires an evenhanded hitman named
Hauser (
Cusack) to take the oil minister out of the picture. Now, in order to carry out the contract without a hitch,
Hauser will pose as the corporation's trade-show producer. The stakes are high and the potential for disaster is evident, though if
Hauser can successfully organize the wedding of Central Asian pop-star
Yonica Babyyeah (
Duff), he's got a good chance of pulling it off. But sexy and resourceful left-wing reporter
Natalie Hegalhuzen (
Tomei) is determined to uncover the truth about what's happening in Turaqistan, and the moment she does, this carefully constructed scheme will crumble like a house of cards.
Joshua Seftel directs a screenplay co-written by
Mark Leyner,
Jeremy Pikser, and producer/star
John Cusack.
