"Terrible"
I wouldn't want to see this on my little ipod much less in high definition

"Funniest Thing I've Ever Seen!!"
I don't understand all the negative reviews. I was almost on the floor. The humor is achieved WITHOUT vulgarity (there is a small amount of bathroom humor). Perhaps all most people are looking for is 1-Special effects 2-Extreme close ups of people snorting cocaine 3-Sex in every scene 4-teenagers acting stupid. If this is what entertains you then look elsewhere as those 4 things describe most new movies today. But if you are somewhat old fashioned like me and can listen carefully for the play on words (such as D.J.'s interrogation of prisoners he thinks are Iraqi's) then prepare to have a good time.
This movie is NOT disrespectful of our men and women in uniform. If the script had been written that way then Larry, Bill and D.J would have refused it as they are true patriots. Enjoy it for the intended farce that it is and a mighty fine one in my opinion.

"Could have been better with the right balence of comedy."
:::Plot:::

Larry The Cable Guy, Bill L and what-his-name are 3 red neck week-end warriors. Meaning there in the army, but only on the weekends, where they bum around and have no military experience what-so-ever. There pretty much the lowest rank of ranks for the US Army.

They end up receiving orders to take on a mission in Iraq that the real army does not want to waste real troops on, so they have scraped the bottom of the barrel to send in these guys.

They meet there new drill sergeant who is the guy from Men At Work, almost playing the same character he did in that, and they find themselves on a plane heading to Iraq.

However these three dopes end up trying to sleep in a military vehicle on the plane, and the Sargent looks for them as the plane hit's bad weather and the pilot end's up lightning the load by dropping the vehicle and the 4 guy's out of the plane, not knowing they are in the vehicle sleeping.

When they awaken, they think they are in Iraq, but they are actually in Mexico. They then find themselves helping out a small Mexican village free itself from a group of Bandits and there leader, Carlos Santana. Not the singer, he's a banditto.

::Review::

Overall, this is very much a "seen it before" situation. Nothing is new, and to be honest, the comedy is not all there. It tries to swing to a more adult audience in some scenes, but for the most part, if they cut out the cuss words, this is a PG rated movie.

They really needed to find the balance of which direction to go with it. Should it have been a PG rated family comedy, or let Larry and Bill ad lib and make it a more adult scenario movie.

I think most people like myself expected a lot more of the Blue Collar dirty humor to it. But it just did not deliver much of the memorable quotes for a comedy movie.

They may have had a lot of fun making this movie, but honestly, the dweeby guy does not seem to fit in this thing. His character is a nutcase red neck, obsessed with shooting a gun and blowing things up, but they start off picking on him and making him the rear end of jokes, then it's barely there, then it's back... they really needed to expand that character more or make better jokes at his expense, and constituently.

There is probably a heap more you could say could have improved this film, but I won't bother going into it, the movies done, printed and released.. so it's not like there going to remake it any time soon.

::: Bonus Features :::

It's packed with extra features. A featurette, boring deleted scenes, boring outtakes, and a couple more interviews with cast members. Some ok, some boring, some interesting and some annoying. The best one was hearing how Danny Trejo went from a life of crime to an actor.

Also Jeff Dunham makes a small appearance in this film and his interview is always entertaining to see Walter and the Halipino on a Shtick.

:::Overall:::

Rental at the most, the die hard fans may want to purchase it with no questions asked, but I'd recommend renting it. I don't think you will kick yourself or feel you missed out on anything if you wait for this to be shown on T.V.


"How Low Can You Go?"
*1/2

"Delta Farce" strains credibility even for a comedy whose sole purpose for existence is to strain credibility. Larry the Cable Guy, Bill Engvall and DJ Qualls star as three imbecilic army reservists who are accidentally dropped off in Mexico on their way to Iraq. Unaware of the mix-up, the trio, believing at first that they are actually in Iraq, wind up fighting against some local gangsters who are terrorizing the inhabitants of a small rural village.

As written by Bear Aderhold and Tom Sullivan and directed by C. B. Harding, "Delta Farce" is riddled with wheezy plot mechanics, tired lowbrow humor, and insulting stereotypes of gays and Mexicans, the latter of whom are portrayed as either gold-toothed, moustache-twirling banditos or backward children who not only cannot defend themselves against the bad guys but must rely on good old American ingenuity and know-how to get even the simplest menial task accomplished. This is especially offensive given that these American heroes are not too many DNA strands away from being certifiable idiots themselves. None of this would really matter so much if the movie itself had managed to be funny. As it is, however, this is about as thoroughly witless and lame-brained a comedy as has come our way in a long long time.

The moviemakers end on a sobering note, dedicating the film to the real military men and women fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's a nice gesture, I suppose, but don't our brave soldiers already have enough troubles over there without having to contend with a cinematic "tribute" like "Delta Farce"?

"hilarious"
This movie was so funny. If you love the actors in this movie, you will definately love the movie itself!
