If there hadn't been any Phil Silvers, then this would be an okay film. Anyone who remembers the 50s tv series that this film was based on would not be happy with this remake. The plot is flimsy, where the tv series' were not. There's a large open camp, where the tv series had a compact set. Dan Aykroyd co stars as Colonel Hall.

Watch this film if you have to, as for investing money, buy the Phil Silvers Show box set...
