Delta Farce (Blu-ray) 7.1 sound!!
The Few. The Proud. The Clueless.
Features: Widescreen, English, Subtitled, Spanish
Down on his luck after losing his job and his girlfriend on the same day, Larry (Larry The Cable Guy) decides to join his neighbor, Bill (Bill Engvall), and his combat-happy buddy, Everett (DJ Qualls), for a relaxing weekend of drinking and target practice. But when the three hapless guys are mistaken for Army Reservists by the hard-nosed Sergeant Kilgore (Keith David), they're loaded onto an army plane headed for Fallujah, Iraq - and mistakenly ejected in a Humvee somewhere over Mexico. Convinced they're actually in the Middle East, the clueless wannabe soldiers save a rural village from a siege of bandits and become local heroes. But when Carlos Santana (Danny Trejo), a ruthless, karaoke-loving warlord, strikes back, Larry, Bill and Everett have to lay down their beers and take up their arms - and prove they just might be real soldiers after all...
"...a cross between "Stripes" and "Three Amigos"..." Brian Orndorf, DVD Talk
"...rife with fat, fart and Fallujah jokes, but with a subcutaneous wit that has a lot to do with Iraq war fatigue." John Anderson, Variety

Larry the Cable Guy, Bill Engvall, and DJ Qualls star in this comedy about three men who are recruited to fight in Iraq but wind up in Mexico by mistake. Not realizing where they are, the cumbersome threesome charge into battle with some befuddled locals.

Review
Reel.com 6 of 10
The slapdash Delta Farce is racist, homophobic, dumb beyond words, and startlingly retrograde in its approach to just about everything. That said --and don't take this as any reason whatsoever to go see it --the movie is really just trying to give viewers a good time. Unfortunately, director C.B. Harding and writers Bear Aderhold and Tom Sullivan take the lazy way out at most every turn, patching together a nonsensical plot with a limp string of jokey asides and contrived set pieces. I'd be lying if I said I didn't chuckle here and there, but if you throw enough dreck against the wall, something's gotta stick, right? There's a kind of genial innocence to the whole enterprise that keeps it from being totally unbearable --and there have been many more aggressively awful comedies --but that's damning with the faintest of praise...It's no surprise how all the mayhem turns out, though you don't expect the emaciated Qualls to enjoy a wrestling ring victory or for Trejo to bark out a karaoke version of "I Will Survive," so there are a few exceptions. - Gary Goldstein
