646f9e108c Naval commander McHale has left the service and set-up shop on Caribbean island, which supplies his former mates at a military base nearby with everything. The base is now commanded by hard-headed Capt. Binghampton and island governor has a deal with a terrorist to use the islandbase. McHale gets back into his crew when his arch-enemy Major Vladikov sets up an operation to destroy the island. Retired Lieutenant Commander Quinton McHale spends his days puttering around the Caribbean in the old PT-73 selling homebrew, ice cream, and swimsuit calendars. He's brought out of retirement when his old nemesis turned the second best terrorist in the world, Major Vladikov, takes over the island of San Moreno and starts building a nuclear launch silo on it. With help from his old crew and hindrances from Captain Wallace B. Binghampton, who sank a cruise liner a while back, McHale tries to put Vladikov out of business. This movie is based on the TV show by the same name . It has bad acting , bad plot , basically the whole movie needs some major help !!It was one of my least favorite movies on the big screen!!Overall, it is OK for families because it's rated PG!!If you like Tom Arnold a lot , you might like this move!!Otherwise this movie just plain sucked!!!Even the Brady Bunch movies were better than this stuff!!!Watch only if you are a fan of the TV show or of the movies main stars!!! McHale's Navy (1997): Dir: Bryan Spier / Cast: Tom Arnold, Dean Stockwell, Debra Messing, Tim Curry, Ernest Borgnine: Pathetic hunk of trash where everyone acts like a bunch of morons, and since this is McHale's Navy we are suppose to look forward to these idiots saving the day. Tom Arnold plays McHale who is popular amongst his troops because he provides them with ice cream, nudie calendars, etc. Everything is a joke until Dean Stockwell and Debra Messing arrive to whip them into shape. Tim Curry plays the "second most dangerous terrorist in the world" who wishes to take over the island. Perhaps too many villains are aiming for world domination so he settles for this tiny island because he sucks. He is constantly rolling his eyes but then again, after appearing in a film this bad it is understandable. The characters exist to be idiots and succeed with flying colours. While Stockwell is lecturing the troops he catches one pea brain eating ice cream, which is stupid since there is no reason for him to be eating it at this time. Dreadful writing and directing by Bryan Spier with horrible acting by Arnold in a role every bitstupidhis Carpool role. Stockwell, Messing, Ernest Borgnine, and unfortunately Tim Curry also blemish their careers with this trash. It is shameless to witness a cast of this caliber drown in this garbage. It is a mindless bag of garbage that is never funny. Score: 1 / 10 No originality, no memorable characters, no comic timing, and no good jokes equal no fun for the audience.
