A man who loves fish (Don Knotts) is rated 4-F and cannot join the Navy. After wishing to be a fish, he actually gets his wish. This film follows his exploits as a fish, meeting different species and helping destroy the Nazi menace.
Another reviewer summed up the movie as follows: "Basic middle-aged husband's fantasy: Dump the annoying, controlling, aging wife for the younger, more submissive, slutty woman." I absolutely saw aspects of this. The wife was not lovable, but Limpet seemed rather easily swayed by the prospects of the ladyfish. Sure, he had reservations, but not until after flirting with her.
I enjoyed it because it was very strange and because I like Don Knotts. But, yeah, not really sure what was all up with it. Very odd film.
