James Garner plays Command Sergeant Major Zack Carey, a career soldier who loves the army, law, and order. He’s also a "scrounger"—a soldier who can find anything needed to get the job done. When Zack brings his family to a new post in the deep South, his son Billy (played by a young C. Thomas Howell) runs afoul of a corrupt, small-town sheriff (played by G.D. Spradlin).

While it is not a high-budget action masterpiece, it feels like a high-quality TV movie with a big heart.

Tank isn’t meant to be taken too seriously. It’s an enjoyable "tank fantasy" that offers a nostalgic, early-80s feel, featuring great, gritty performances. If you want to see Jim Rockford (Garner's iconic Rockford Files role) taking on a corrupt Southern town in a Sherman tank, this is a five-star, no-notes fun time.
