Movie Reviews of Ernest Goes to Jail
Movie Review: We really enjoyed this movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
When Ernest P. Worrell is called for jury duty, he responds with more enthusiasm than intelligence. However, there is someone behind the scenes who has enough intelligence for both, criminal mastermind Felix Nash, and he intends to slip out of prison by changing places with Ernest. Now, it is up to Ernest to stop the even Nash, and protect his beloved bank. It will take all of Ernest's intelligence...and a LOT of luck to succeed.
I must say, I was really surprised by this movie. I got it not expecting much from the movie, but I ended up really enjoying it. The late Jim Varney did a great job as Ernest, as you might expect, but he also did a great job of playing a villain. My family and I really enjoyed this movie, and we don't hesitate to recommend it to you!
Summary of Ernest Goes to Jail
Only a bumbling bank janitor like know-it-all knucklehead Ernest P. Worrell (Emmy(R) Award-winning comedian Jim Varney) could serve on jury duty and wind up serving time -- in the slammer! The laughs start when a crooked lawyer discovers that Ernest is a dead ringer for his crime-boss client ... and before you can say "Framed!" -- the switch is on! While Ernest is behind bars trying to fit in and break out, he manages to turn the big house into a nuthouse full of big laughs. Meanwhile, his evil double is busy taking his place at the bank and in his girlfriend's life! Full of comic inventiveness, a wacky cast of characters, and slam-bang special effects, ERNEST GOES TO JAIL is guilty of maximum fun in the first degree!Comedy DVD Video
