Hilarious spoof of Jules Verne’s famous novel Around the World in 80 Days, Phileas Fogg III, the great-grandson of Verne’s hero, finds himself taking on the same wager as his ancestor. Conman Vickers Cavendish assumes the identity of ‘Mr. Stuart,’ the original adversary’s great-grandson, and along with members of the Reformers Club, bet Fogg that he cannot travel the globe in 80 days without the use of his substantial means. But Cavendish is actually using the wager to stage a bank robbery, and frame Fogg for the theft. Fogg and his three servants, Moe, Larry and Curly Joe, embark on the trip around the world stowing away on a freighter bound for Turkey.
