Delta Farce | 2007 | PG-13 | - 4.4.6
Larry (Larry the Cable Guy) and his two buddies (Bill Engvall and D.J. Qualls) are mistaken as U.S. Army troops when they spend a weekend playing soldier at an army base. The trio is loaded on an airplane heading for Iraq, but while on route, they are accidentally dropped in Mexico along with a hard-nosed sergeant. Unaware of the geographical error, Larry leads his crew to fight bandits who are terrorizing a village. Also with Keith David and Marisol Nichols. Directed by C. B. Harding. [1:30]

CAVEATS
Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.
We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.
Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
