Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Hilariously funny
Review: This is another example of Ernest being is comical self. This movie is not the best of the series, but it is still really funny.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good Movie
Review: This is really a great movie, but when I played this DVD on my Playstation 2, it sort of flickers on some of the scenes (It's still watchable,though). I was originally planning to give this movie 4 stars, but since from some of the flickers, I'll give it 3 stars.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Almost too real
Review: This movie finds Ernest as a ball retriever at a driving range with aspirations of driving army trucks like real army people. His buddy assures him that if he joins the reserves, he can party every weekend while driving the big green trucks. So Ernest joins up. But coincidentally, his unit suddenly gets called up and sent to the Persian Gulf as peace keepers monitoring a border dispute. The border dispute goes rapidly out of control, and Ernest winds up on the front lines. The fate of the civilized world is in his hands!

Given the theme, it's not surprising that this movie is a bit more violent than Ernest's standard kids' fare. Guns actually get fired (but not by Ernest) and people fall down. If you are familiar with the Middle East or the army, you will find lots to laugh at in this movie. However, the overall plot almost comes across as too real these days to be as preposterous as it was originally intended.

Summary: Ernest in Top Form
Review: This movie is right up there with the best of the Ernest movies. Varney is in top form as Ernest, and there's a great mix of other characters, too. The humor is quite witty, with the usual mixture of silliness and sophistication.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funny Movie Ernest is Hilarious with joke about tanks ect
Review: This video offered some of Earnest's best comedy scenes both having to do with food. The interspersion of a t.v. news show host reporting on the progress of the army in which Earnest is enlisted made it more interesting. This is one of my family's favorites as we can laugh and not be insulted with language, violence, or inappropriate dress and relationships.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Earnest is a hero again without even trying.

Summary: POOR SCREENPLAY
Review: Varney is an amazing performer and certainly underrated.. Carrey by comparison is nowhere near as good a performer for example. However Varney cannot seem to find decent screenplays and directors. This is a pity. This movie is nowhere near "Ernest goes to school" and "to Africa".
