This laugh-a-minute comedy is a hilarious film adaptation of the Phil Silvers classic 1950s television series, following the wacky adventures of "Sgt. Bilko" (1996). The movie's all-star cast features Steve Martin as Bilko, the fast-talking, likable but conniving motor-pool supervisor. He uses his position at a Kansas military base to stage numerous get-rich-quick schemes and illegal gambling activities, much to the delight of the men in his troop. Dan Aykroyd plays his commanding officer, who is mostly oblivious to Bilko's antics. But when Bilko's old rival, played by Phil Hartman, arrives, plenty of silly trouble arrive with him.
