Cadet Alex Stone (Steven Martini) sets Major Benson Payne (Damon Wayans) up to fight an intimidating biker (Bam Bam Bigelow) to get him to leave their military school. Unfortunately for Alex, Major Payne is much tougher than he looks and ends up beating the biker to a pulp. To get his squad back in line after their major infringement, Payne sends them out on a mission to steal a trophy from their competition as a peace offering.

Damon Wayans stars in this hilarious escapade Major Payne. When peace breaks out in America, killing machine Major Benson Winifred Payne, United States Marine Corps Special Forces (Wayans), is given his marching orders... to the unemployment line. Unable to cope with civilian life, Payne is thrust back into the military regimen as commander of the Madison Academy Junior ROTC. How does the military's most dangerous secret weapon discipline a few good men when none of them is even old enough to shave? Any way he wants! At least until Dr. Emily Walburn, school counselor (Karen Parsons), joins his tour of duty. Armed with the comic genius of Damon Wayans and stockpiled with humor, "Major Payne orders up the laughs."

"You said you were gonna hit me in the face." "What? You callin' me a liar?" I love this so much.
Had me rolling lololol
same @@Raderan
also love the part "ooh children"
Classic major payne.
I ain't calling you a truther! (Sorry, had to. 😆)
It's the "Oh children..." line that makes me crack up.
The way he stepped on him 💀
The hair on my arm stood when I heard him call that.
"Somebody's gonna answer for this blood from my lip!"
Damon's acting isn't talked about enough in this movie. His ability to mix the sillyness and jokes with intimate moments where he potrays Payne's love and pride for his young troops is what makes this such a classic.
Reminds me of my Master Gunns from JROTC. You could tell he saw a lot in his time and so warming when he’d come down us and then flash a little smirk.
100% one of the best lead comedy performances ever.
The only way to being a better player being so humble in this world is by playing the do it yourself and being the e player that makes you proud to have been so great at the view that you’re
Exactly
Watch his sitcom. My Wife and Kids
"FEE FI FO FUM, WHAT BEANSTALK YOU FALL FROM?" LOL😂😂😂
I still can't believe they didn't make a sequel to this classic. And the "you callin me a liar" is too much, it gets me everytime.
I'd say because the overall movie was as shallow and one dimensional as 99% of all others "class doesn't want to behave, so they hire someone that earns their respect and later they like them"-movies. But then again, we talking Hollywood. And Hollywood has lost It's magic years ago.
Or a cheap series or something
Rest in Peace Bam Bam Bigelow.
amen
Oh fuck it was Bam Bam. I though it was, but wasn't sure.
@@darkholyPL Yup that's Bam Bam. Bret Hart has spoken fondly of him saying he was incredible in the ring.
Boo hoo, everyone knows he dead along with a shit loads of other wrestlers.
Rest In Peace Scott "Bam Bam" Bigelow ((1961-2007)) he deserve to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame
"One, don't you feel dumb! Two, look at you! Three, you ever talk about me behind my back again ill stomp you in the ground!" One of the best parts in a comedy ever.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love his rhymes lol
Truth
Reminds me of Homey The Clown!!!

“Well that’s one death warrant signed”. LOL 😂
“7 23 hour days full of fun and adventure. I’m gonna make you boys SKRONG” 😂😂😂😂😂

@@phileickmeyer2493 lol
As a Marine, this (along with Full Metal Jacket) is probably one of the most accurate depictions of Marine Corps Drill Instructors I have ever seen. Most of them are very funny but are true hard chargers about the Corps and serving in the military. I wish they would do a part 2!
Well, Full Metal Jacket drill instructor was a real drill instructor. I personally wouldn't want a part 2 at this point because they are probably going to frag it up. I would like a movie in this style however.
@@ismaelsantos5378 Agreed, they'd make it a movie about how girls can't be in the military and Payne would come back as a trans.
Except you wouldn’t expect a major or any officer to act like this. You’d expect it more from an SNCO
@@waitin4winter Major Pain coulda been a Mustang
Ours would purposefully try and make us laugh while at attention just so they could go berserk and beat us if we even cracked a smile.
Major Payne will forever be a classic it’ll never be another movie like this it’s funny and hilarious Damon wayans did his thang in this movie lol 😂😂
Factsss
@@FordFitness334 it would have been if they came out with a major payne 2 with Damon wayans still playing him
Yeah,it's a classic,so-FUNNY !!! TOO bad they don't make movies like this any more,just super-hero movies,reboots & sequels. LOL.
Thang? Thung? Thong?
Always wished back in the day they would have made a Homey the Clown movie.
One of the best scenes in comedy ever! I love how Stone is willing to take the punishment for the whole squad and is the guy everyone naturally turns to when the chips are down, so these reasons are why Major Payne decides to make him squad leader instead of Dotson. Plus, when we see that Dotson just shouts at the cadets and is always trying to please the superior officer (up until the dress punishment), it is clear that Dotson is no true leader.
Not only is Dotson a bad leader, he ended up jumping ship and switching to one of the competing schools because he was butt hurt.
He willingly took punishment but got rewarded for courage. He wasn’t afraid to face Payne but cared about his crew more than what he thought he had coming.
Hol;yweird at it agian ... how did this song go with these ... well soldiers LOL
@@Filmaker25 go away ivan
That's a leader.
What I love about Payne is that, HE has a limit on what to do a kid/teen. And later on when you see the way Alex's step father treats him. Payne steps in between them and says one of my favorite lines in the movie: "If you hit the kid again. I'll do more than salute you".
Unbelievable movie. Damon Wayans played those boys like a fiddle and gave them great challenges to help them think better and grow. Military is just a part of their life.
Help them be the war criminals that God intended lol
😊
RIP Bam Bam Bigelow. The beast from the east. Gone but not forgotten.
Saved them kids too
o7 Mad respect to the man.
This was a great movie , teaching principals and lessons these kids who really needed it

Damon Wayans was so convincing as a bad ass in this movie and he of course was hilarious as usual. The writers should also be commended for incredible dialogue on this movie. While I would consider this movie in the genre of stupid comedy for teen/pre-teens. There are only a few other comedy movies I've re-watched as much as this one. It really holds up and has been continued to be funny through dozens of viewings.
it never dawn on me how tall damon is in real life. Bigelow isn't a small man. he no giant but he not someone you call tiny and they nearly match the same Height
@@Marveryn According to google Wayans is 6'2 and Bigelow was 6'4. I think the camera angle and the campaign hat add several inches.
Right up there with Remo Williams
I've lost count how many times I've watched this movie. I never get tired of it. And I was an Infantry Marine
he looks like an angry crackhead
2:35 - Something that some people might miss: Payne is a trained military soldier. In war he has permission to use whatever means necessary to achieve his objective; such as striking enemy soldiers, killing enemy soldiers, etc. But here he's up against a civilian, so the rules are different. He cannot use physical force, except as a means of self-defence. So when he insults Bam Bam Bigelo the Biker, he gets the exact result he was hoping for, which is why he seems happier afterwards. He now is legally allowed to strike back. 6:09 - And as you find out later on, Stone can stand before even someone like Payne, and be completely unafraid of receiving physical abuse. But then of course, even after all the bad-ass shit you've seen Payne do throughout the movie. Even the stuff that could be considered downright sadistic; he's still unwilling to hit a child.
Another thing they miss. While he's most likely not one. A lot of Bikers are former military. Hell's Angels started out as former WWII Pilots. So needless to say Stone would have had to find one that didn't serve because the others would have said no. Not just out of respect for the military, but a lot of them at this point are 'Nam Vets, they probably served along side Payne personally in the war while he was serving or at least know him and his batshit reputation. While Bikers are tough MFs, even they know better than to mess with Payne without cause.
@Shanethefilmmaker and they would have told Stone that there is a method to Payne's madness. Like, we all hated getting screamed at in Basic, but overall, it teaches you how to handle being overwhelmed as best you can
Something that was subtle was Alex stone's arc. He started out as a trouble maker and a rebel but with Major Payne as his commanding officer he becomes a leader and proves many people can be leaders no matter what background they had
He just needed the right father figure
@@jordanpax9735 And responsibility.
Kid would make a good marine, chesty woulda approved of him.
He wanted to become their common enemy and have them work as a team. That is why he switched leaders he wanted their true leader instead of the brown noser.
@@zeaferjones1404 100% but we gotta be careful about saying that in real life for bad leaders though. heard people use that for one of the guy under mad dog back when Saddam was still alive and free. they had a guy enforcing grooming regulations and dress regs to the point his preferences. He still treated it like they were law rather than just his Peeves and they were still in country rather than on fobs in a shooting war. that same CO got busted for being a chomo and for a bunch of other scummy stuff. Sometimes good COs are just following broken window theory and/or giving men a common enemy but other times they are just scum tripping on power. saw a lot of good men get messed up because leadership couldn’t catch the hint that maybe it would be best for them to turn a blind eye while the sausage gets made.
"I've been known to cut a little rug". Proud to have grown up during this era. Possibly the funniest 90s movie.

You really don't hear almost hero's ever brought up. Definitely one of my favorites.
Hands down one the most iconic roles he played
"Fee-Fai-Foh-Fam, what beanstalk you fall from?" 😂🤣
One of truly most underrated movies !! Never get bored to watch it whenever is on. True gem. Good performance from all the characters. And yes, Bam Bam rip. Another great wrestler gone too early !
There was no doubt Stone was rough around the edges but he definitely showed his willingness to put his teammates ahead of himself even if it meant him getting expelled. That's character and integrity.
That’s why Payne picked him as squad leader
I thought he was trying to get kicked out anyways?
@@TheodoreBroseveltHe was, but Payne wasn't going to give him the satisfaction.
Sooo many memorable quotes in this film, I can't go one gym session w/o thinking "I'm gon make you boys strongggg"
“You like to rhyme, boy?” 😂😂🤣
I love the see all the love for this movie. Sure, it's not a masterpiece, but it's your typical 90s movie that is easy to watch and feel good.
Oh bit it IS a master piece. That is what makes it so inmortal.
I cant count how many times I watched this movie as a Kid. When movies were simple and funny.
And clean for the most part. It will never be so again.
This scene lives rent free in my head till this day 🤣
I'm gonna make you boys strong 😂 gets me every time
When I got older I realized Mayor Payne was the 1 that warned to other school about his students trying to steal the trophy & they got beat up Lol 😂!
Scott Bigelow legitimately scared the hell out of me when I was a kid. Nonetheless, I hope his rest has been peaceful.
Bam Bam Bigelow is just awesome. He showed everyone how to take a bump when he got kicked
Probably one of the most underrated movie!
I love how they expect a biker to be able to take down a freaking MARINE.
Well, they are kids, after all.
Took down a WWF champ. Knocked him cross eyed.

Highly underrated movie
Bam Bam Bigelow! One of the nicest guys in wrestling.
The Wayans brothers are all absolute legends.
This movie was a major part of my childhood
my childhood was a major pain
It was a major part of a lot of oif/oef combat Marines' upbringing. The Corps wouldnt be what it is today without this movie,
What's funny is that some people don't take Drill Sgt's seriously until they feel their wrath. I never served but one of my instructors was a drill Sgt and he scared the bejezus out of me. I never once challenged them because I knew what they are capable of.
Then you are smarter than most. The rule of being a Drill Sergeant is you can't assault the recruits. Keyword being assault. The minute some dumbass throws a punch, they're about to time travel into next week
@@jacobnewell7845 I saw an under belt make contact with a punch during a demonstration knowing he wasn't supposed to at that moment. (The lesson was looking at the fist verses opponet's eyes_)Let's just say he learned alot about what it feels to get hit in the jaw.
@@jacobnewell7845 They also can't insult recruits... which leads to the very creative use of language to paint flowery images with words. Ironically, the very best drill sgts are some of the most vicious creatures on the planet... and some of the fluffiest and most respectable men you will ever find when not in uniform.
My drill sergeant was actually pretty quiet. However, I do believe he carried a pocket dictionary because the words he used DID instill fear and respect and we learned how to be soldiers. Our team leader, however, was old school and it was not uncommon to get a punch in the kidneys when no was looking for screwing up, similar to Gunnery Sgt. Hartmann in Full Metal Jacket.
@@tonyv8925 I never served but I've heard stories about Drill SGT's aren't to be messed with..haha
God! Its been so many years! I forgot how awesome this was!
It's one of the best films I've ever seen It's amazing ❤
I believe he promoted him because for one, he knew he wanted to leave so he put him in charge instead because he knew it would upset him and two, he actually respected him for essentially standing up for himself and his group.
One of the best comedies, love this movie.
Me too.
Too many lines to quote this whole movie is 🔥
Listen to the disneyesque music added during the fight scene. It's amazing, why they removed it from films after is beyond me. Always loved this movie! Damon Wayans is amazing in 'The Last Boy Scout' too where he plays against Bruce Willis. And that's a great movie too, by the way - so watch it!
Damon Is an underrated legend
My favorite part is when he takes care of the monster in the closet with extreme prejudice
If he's in there, he ain't happy
