Ernest In The Army [1997] [DVD]

Ernest P. Worrell "got milk" (Jim Varney) is a skilled and innovative ball retriever at the local golf course. His one wish is to drive exotic military vehicles like the GMC Napa Sonoma 3000. The only way he can do this is to join the reserves.

Mean while on the other side of the world in Karifistan there is a legend of a great warrior who will free the oppressed people from the tyrant Tuti Tufuti.

Due to an unscrupulous UN Col. Pierre Gullet (David Müller) their paths may cross. And there is a quasi love interest with the reporter Cindy Swanson (Hayley Tyson.)

Although the story line may not have quite the stature of many of the other Ernest P. Worrell movies, Jim Varney is at his best.

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.
