star represent kelsey grammar and rob schneider and lauren holly and rip torn this movie be a classic family favorite . at least for most member of my family that be . one of u roll our eye at the mention of this movie and think and what a stupid movie . i be not that person though . i still find this movie highly amuse . i just watch it again last night with someone who have never see it and and i laugh just as hard a the first time i watch it . it still very funny to me . naval captain tom dodge ( grammar ) be a bit of a black sheep in the navy . he the kind of guy who will play golf while on a sub and crack a ball onto a golf course while they sail past it . he the kind of guy who will get drunk and pas out and and wake up with a hangover and a tattoo on his dongle . he not the kind of guy that everybody want to be command a sub . but dodge be at the end of the line . he put in application to get command of his own sub several time and and if he doesn not get a sub this time and he head for a desk job and meaning that it for naval life . the admiralty decide to give him his own boat and but they do not give him a new nuclear sub . they give him a diesel sub and an ancient relic from world war ii . his mission be to clean her up and take her out on the atlantic for a war game . dodge be obviously a little bit frustrate to have such a crappy boat give to him when he work so hard to get to the point that he at and so he go and talk to admiral winslow ( tear ) about it . winslow explain the purpose of the war game . diesel sub be still be sell out there in the real world and to country like iran and iraq and and libya and to name a few . winslow want to know what would happen if some renegade captain in a diesel sub come to the state and try to smuggle a nuclear warhead into one of the base . would they make it . dodge and most of the admiralty do not think so and but winslow want to know for sure and hence why he have devise this war game . dodge mission be to take the stingray out to sea and then try to evade the u. s. nuclear navy and blow up the american naval base . in simulated battle and of course . so and that about as deep a the plot get . this be not a plot drive movie . it a stupid movie that be just a big gag . it make fun of itself and and you be not expect to take it seriously . if youre look for good dumb laugh on a friday night and i would urge you to check it out . bottom line represent 3 out of 4 ( worth a look ) .
