About this movie

The Army is known for churning out lean, mean fighting machines intent on protecting our great nation. But at Fort Baxter, there's one unit that can't even form a straight line... Steve Martin stars with Dan Aykroyd and Phil Hartman in an outrageous comedy from Imagine Entertainment. Martin is the inexplicable, the incorrigible, the invincible Sgt. Ernie Bilko, leader of a ragtag group of the sorriest soldiers ever to enlist in the armed forces. Instead of training his troops for battle, he passes on his legacy of gambling and shunning responsibility. Times get tough, however, when the base is threatened with a shutdown and a by-the-book adversary, Major Thorn (Hartman), is intent on taking Bilko's reputation down with it. Now, all bets are on Bilko to drum up his biggest scheme yet to save Fort Baxter... and clear his name!

Despite the negative messages it displays at viewers (especially children) and it being a disappointment to fans of the Phil Winters TV series, it's still a wonderful and outrageously perfect comedy. I just love the subplot of Bilko doing his best to be together with his fiance.

Love this movie. I remember when it first came out I was like 14 or 15. Loved it then, love it now. It's hilarious and I really appreciate movies that make me laugh.
