Ernest in the Army

Ernest in the Army (1998) is a family comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Jim Varney plays Ernest P. Worrell — the lovable, hopelessly clumsy everyman who anchored the franchise since the eighties — this time as a fresh recruit in the rear support corps, directed once again by series regular John Cherry.

Ernest always wanted to drive big military trucks. He gets his wish and promptly starts breaking things. A tin-pot dictator with regional ambitions provides the central threat, and a lost boy in need of protection gives Ernest someone to look after. One of the later entries in the run, aimed squarely at younger viewers and longtime fans of the character. Stream Ernest in the Army (1998) on iFILM.
