Major Payne

CriticsCritics: 32
AudienceAudience: 6.5

After leaving the Marines, a battle-hardened officer struggles to adjust to civilian life and takes charge of a struggling school JROTC program. His harsh methods clash with the unruly cadets, but training them for an upcoming competition may challenge his ideas about discipline, leadership, and connection.

My take

You’ll probably enjoy this if you like broad, irreverent comedies built around tough authority figures, quotable insults, and misfit groups; Not for you if crude humor or predictable stories quickly wear thin.
