Movie Review: Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector - Page 2


The jokes fall flat, the love story is ridiculous and there are only so many times a fart joke is funny in ninety minutes. This movie far exceeds that number. Along those lines the movie is much more gross than it is funny. And it’s not just me being uptight. My husband has a fairly high tolerance for bathroom humor and I couldn’t even get him to keep watching it with me after the first ten minutes. It was that contrived and that predictably un-funny.


It’s boring and slow, and just when you think it can’t get any worse, Kid Rock makes a cameo appearance (in Larry’s dreams, naturally).


Frankly, the movie is so lacking in substance and humor that it’s hard to even think of anything useful to say about it other than save your shekels.

    Pretty much exactly what I figured it would be.
