McHale's Navy from 1997 is a hilarious, action-packed comedy film that follows the adventures of Lt. Cmdr. Quinton McHale, played by Tom Arnold. The movie is based on the popular 1960s TV sitcom of the same name, but with a modern twist. The story is set in 1962, during the height of the Cold War. The United States Navy is stationed on the exotic island of San Moreno in the Pacific Ocean, where they are tasked with defending the coast against foreign threats. Lieutenant Commander McHale, the leader of the unconventional PT boat crew, is in charge of commanding USS Sea Tiger, which is considered the most dilapidated vessel in the fleet.

When a group of terrorists led by a man named Vladakov, played by Tim Curry, threatens to take over the island, McHale and his crew become the last line of defense. McHale's plan is to use his unorthodox methods to outwit Vladakov's team and save the day.

The plot follows McHale and his ragtag crew as they engage in a series of hilarious misadventures while trying to thwart Vladakov's plot. Along the way, they rescue a beautiful nurse, played by Debra Messing, and team up with a former enemy, Captain Binghamton, played by Dean Stockwell, to defeat the terrorists.

The film is filled with non-stop action, slapstick humor, and hilarious one-liners that will make the audience laugh out loud. The chemistry between the actors is fantastic, and each character brings their unique comedic flair to the table. Tom Arnold's portrayal of McHale is spot-on, and he perfectly captures the spirit of the original character. Ernest Borgnine, who played McHale in the original TV series, makes a cameo appearance in the film, which is a nice touch.

The movie's soundtrack consists of classic songs from the 1960s, which adds to the overall nostalgic feel of the film. The costumes, sets, and props are also an excellent homage to the era.

Overall, McHale's Navy is an entertaining and enjoyable film that is sure to put a smile on anyone's face. It's a lighthearted and fun-filled adventure that is perfect for a family movie night or a lazy afternoon spent watching movies. The film's clever writing and excellent comedic timing make it a must-see for fans of the original series, as well as anyone who enjoys a good comedy.

McHale's Navy is a 1997 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 48 minutes. It has received poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.5 and a MetaScore of 18.
