I am a big fan of Jim Varney and his Ernest P Worrell character. I saw all four of the Ernest movies in the theater. I saw "Ernest Goes to Camp" in theater (Cinema City, Fresh Meadows, NY) when I was 23 years old. "Goes to Camp" is my least favorite of the theatrical movies. It has a lot of funny parts but there's too much downtime. The movie is too serious at times and is way too violent at one point. That said, I still enjoy watching "Ernest Goes to Camp'. I just don't watch it as much as I watch the other movies in the series. (True confessions: I snuck into this movie after watching "Ishtar".)
