It's so much a Wayans vehicle that at times it seems like one long close-up of his gold-tooth grin. [24 March 1995, p.H24]
The whole grand tradition of
the humor of movie stupidity, from Laurel and Hardy and Mortimer Snerd to
Jerry Lewis and Peter Sellers' Inspector Clouseau, seems to crash and burn in
this movie, which ends with Payne's idiotic laugh wheezing away over the
end-titles. It almost sounds like the beginning of a laugh track-which "Major
Payne" could certainly use. [24 March 1995, p.H]

Awesome awesome movie! One of my favorites growing up. Damon Waynes is a hard ass to some teens training them for the military games. One of the funniest movies I've ever seen.
