About McHale's Navy

Fans of the early-'60s sitcom are naturally disappointed by this more juvenile approach to the old concept, which found Navy Captain McHale commanding a merry band of hustlers in the Pacific. Tom Arnold plays the updated title character, and while there's every reason he could have done a fine job, the script eschews the show's tone for something broader and dumber. A lost opportunity, all right, and the original McHale, Ernest Borgnine, appears to give it his blessing with a cameo as Pentagon brass. --Tom Keogh Amazon.com

I ordered this item and got it less than a week later, I Usually have a good experience when it comes to Amazon but this was the best! June 22, 2008

I really looked forward to this movie. 2 words, very disappointing. I enjoyed the original series very much. It was nothing(ok, it was about the Navy) like the original. I watched it once, no desire to watch it again. And, Tom Arnold? They could have done a lot better with almost any other actor. There are a few(very few) times, I've liked Tom Arnold. He is not a comedic actor. He's tried many times, why does he keep trying? If you like McHale's Navy, watch the original McHale's Navy. If you like Tom Arnold, try the movie, but I believe you will still be disappointed. April 23, 2008

Its a fun movie, good for the whole family. The characters are over the top, and the story is funny. Its a great "tribute" to the original series. I very highly recommend it. February 25, 2008

I had high hopes for this flim BUT No!!! God they could of made a better film for the money they spent on this few LAUGHS gags that I got.
They needed to worked the plot a lot more.The star power was'nt that bad they should've demanded a better script from the writers.The film set in the 1990- 97 okay was hard at best,because the old show was set in WW2 and that was great,and the 97 film was hard to watch because there was no real plot at all.Tim Curry as the world second best terrorist okay that sound like a plot I'd guess!! I 'll watch the DVD when I need see something GOFFY on Saturday. I love flim with HighJinks but this one falls short some what.I BE NICE AND GIVE 3 STARS. June 12, 2007
