    As a child I loved this film very much. I'm giving it a good rating for prosperity!

    Ernest's first movie, which started Jim Varney's movie career! He's got a yokel hickish charm; and all I remember about this movie is little turtles with parachutes.

    This was cute for about 5 minutes. Not worth your time.

    Varney was and always be in my childhood memories... this one wasn't as good as Ernest Scared Stupid, but it has its moments

    This is another of the Ernest series of films. I enjoyed it as a kid and still get some laughs from it today. This time we have Ernest working at a camp. The film is your typical Ernest humour slapstick and jokes. Decent for kids and adults to enjoy. Jim Varney is very funny as E...( read more)rnest. Worth a watch if you liked the other Ernest films.
