Amazon.com Andy Griffith burst to stardom with this surprisingly funny film adaptation of the Broadway comedy (by, of all people, Ira Levin of Rosemary's Baby fame). Griffith plays a hillbilly who is drafted into the army where, among other things, he has to wear shoes regularly for the first time. Griffith brings an engaging glee to the role of this likable bumpkin, whose happy-go-lucky demeanor is impervious to insult. Ask him to clean the latrines and he rigs the toilet seats to stand up and salute. The film follows him through basic training and into the paratroops, where he becomes an unlikely hero. A solid supporting cast includes Griffith's future sidekick, Don Knotts; Nick Adams; and, most notably, the hilariously sullen Myron McCormick. --Marshall Fine

Long Overdue for Release on DVD September 17, 2006 Dean A. Lungu (Las Vegas, Nevada United States) 18 out of 19 found this review helpful
Hands down one of the funniest movies ever made. Add my voice to the long and growing list of those calling for this comedy masterpiece to be released on DVD. To the powers that be: We're waiting...!

No Time for Sergeants brings back all the sights and sound that you are familiar with the military, especially the induction process. They even included the military attitudes. What makes this so funny is the proximity to reality. You have met these people in all walks of life. From Irvin S. Blanchard, who has a bad case of ROTC. To Major General Eugene Bush that unwittingly gives a eulogy to (I'm not saying). The movie is packed with a large cast of supporting characters that you will recognize. And situations that I hope you do not recognize. It is down right funny on many levels.
Where's the DVD? June 2, 2006 J. L. Mackey, Jr. 14 out of 16 found this review helpful
Add me to the long list of Andy Griffith fans who would love to see this on DVD. Considering all the terribly unfunny comedies that have been released on DVD over the years, why not release one that actually works?
Andy Griffith a great actor. March 1, 2006 John L. Bradley (Hazlet, New Jersey United States) 13 out of 14 found this review helpful
Griffith is one the most underrated actors of our time. Just watch this film "No Time for Sergeants" and then "A Face in the Crowd". Few actors could pull it off. Now, when the heck does this movie come out in DVD?
