About this movie

Set sail on a hilarious voyage to outrageous adventure as Tom Arnold, Debra Messing, David Alan Grier, Dean Stockwell, Tim Curry and Oscar® winner Ernest Borgnine (the original McHale in a madcap cameo appearance) take to the high seas in this laugh-packed, big screen adaptation of the wildly popular '60's television series. Arnold stars as laid-back retired Naval Lieutenant Commander Quinton McHale, whose days of leisure are jeopardized when his former nemesis Major Vladikov (Curry) unexpectedly surfaces with a scheme that threatens his beloved Caribbean island base. Returning to uniform, McHale, assisted by Penelope Carpenter (Messing), his lovely, fun-loving First Lieutenant, guides his crazy crew of misfits through a series of madcap maneuvers that has the enemy scrambling for cover and the audience roaring with delight!
