Trailer
Major Payne
1995
When peace breaks out in America, hard-nosed Marine Maj. Benson Payne (Damon Wayans) finds himself out of a job. Unable to handle civilian life's tedium, Payne takes a post as commander of some junior cadets at a private academy. The military bulldog teaches the wee recruits discipline and poise as they train for a statewide competition. Cowriter Wayans peppers this family fare with sly comic touches, including a parody of Apocalypse Now.
Welcome to the House of Payne.
