    The hilariously dirty insult comic Lisa Lampanelli shows up all too briefly as Engvall's shrewish wife.

    Perhaps the people most insulted are white Southerners, who presumably are expected to embrace one whopping brain-dead metaphor.

    Larry the Cable Guy channels both Moe and Curly in the Three Stooges-go-to-war comedy Delta Farce.

    A mindless comedy where the blatant racial stereotypes are outnumbered only by the flatulence jokes. The best thing that can be said about this movie is it falls just short of being an international incident.

    Overall the movie is too stupid to offend any but the most sensitive viewer.

    Consider this the sequel to "Ernest in the Army " that the late Jim Varney never got around to making. It's not very good but at least it's not evil.

    One of those celebrations of idiocy that never seem to go out of vogue.

    Delta Farce is so relentlessly racist (and homophobic), without ever having the intelligence to pass that bigotry off as satire, that viewers will be left thinking "Borat" has a soft touch.

    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?

    The worst thing about Delta Farce is its overall feeling of contempt--for the filmmaking process, for common decency, and, most despicably, for the audience.

    If Director C.B. Harding's intention was to make one of the worst films in recent memory, congratulations are in order.

    But is it funny? Not really.

    A few laughs and i did enjoy it but to call this a great movie or even a great comedy requires serious mental problems on the viewers part. not that bad though.… Full Review »

    A while back, in My review of "The Pink Panther," I talked about my disgust with people who can't seem to go into movies and just be entertained without having to think too deeply. Judging from the reviews that "Delta Farce got, I'd say that this was the case here. So, people, it's time to get those bugs out of your butts and learn to enjoy a movie, in spite of the fact that it may be nothing but a silly comedy that relies heavily on crude humor. Not every movie can be adapted from a Shakespeare play. As for me, I found this movie to be absolutely hilarious. If you can except that some movies are meant to just be fun and never take itself seriously, I highly recommend "Delta Farce."… Full Review »
