What it really boils down to is whether you’re a fan of Larry the Cable Guy. If so, you’ll (I would hope) realize you’re watching a pretty stupid comedy but will laugh in the appropriate parts. Full Review |

Whatever your pet sensitivity -- the military, rednecks, gays, Mexicans -- this movie is an equal-opportunity denigrator. Full Review |

War in Iraq isn't funny -- neither is this movie. Full Review |

The only farcical aspect of it is that it was greenlit in the first place. Full Review |

.5/4 |
It's OK to write comedies about morons%u2026as long as you don't insult the intelligence of the audience in the script. Full Review |

Is it funny? Not really. All of its subversive potential is wasted on [director] Harding, and even the straight-ahead farce is joyless. Full Review |

1/5 |
...a surefire reassurance that war is indeed hell...another prime example of ingenuity involving a box of crayons and someone's desperate idea for quick-witted lunacy. Full Review |

If ribbing the U.S. armed forces was considered unpatriotic after 9/11, then Delta Farce proves that discussion of the Iraq War has now officially jumped the shark. Full Review |

2/4 |
A romantic flicker between the dumpy Larry and a pretty local senorita defies all logic -- even in a movie this illogical. Full Review |

Here's a sobering thought: If every war gets the comedy it deserves, could Delta Farce, a strenuously unfunny Three Amigos knockoff, be our M*A*S*H? Full Review |

I can honestly say that I didn’t laugh once Full Review |

.5/5 |
Perhaps best enjoyed by persons who have been lobotomized. After the first 30 minutes (I'm being generous), you may well feel like you have been. Full Review |

1/5 |
As morale boosters go, Larry the Cable Guy is no Bob Hope, and it's hard to reconcile the contradiction of an overtly tasteless movie that doesn't want to offend the troops. Full Review |

Like Paths Of Glory, Apocalypse Now, and Platoon, Delta Farce is a difficult, harrowing work offering little relief or humor. Unlike those movies, though, Delta Farce is supposed to be funny. Full Review |

2/4 |
Lord, I apologize, but Larry the Cable Guy just can't seem to get 'er done in a feature film. Full Review |
||
|
1/4 |
Larry the Cable Guy makes the men and women of the armed forces wait until the tail-end of his Iraq war comedy, Delta Farce, to learn that the movie is dedicated to them. Haven't they been through enough? Full Review |

|
1/4 |
A mindless comedy where the blatant racial stereotypes are outnumbered only by the flatulence jokes. Full Review |
||
|
1/5 |
With Delta Farce, his second movie vehicle, the Southern-fried comedian Larry the Cable Guy takes ever greater risks to advance his career.
|

|
1/4 |
There are henpecked-husband jokes, gay jokes, turd humor, mispronounced Iraq war terms, guys asking "Who farted?" and lots more Crackel Barrel comedy. Full Review |

|
1.5/4 |
This is a movie where the villains are the comic relief for the comedians, and where the outtakes at the end are better than the film. Full Review |
