Delta Farce Trailers

Three bumbling Army reservists are hustled onto a plane headed for combat in Iraq -- but the fact that the plane drops them in Mexico doesn't stop them from "liberating" what they believe to be the Middle East.

Now, I bought this movie for a dollar at Goodwill, so I wasn't expecting much, but it turned out to be pretty funny. Sure, it's not smart or examining any deep issues, but it's not supposed to: it's supposed to make you laugh! And that is exactly what it did. I usually get really annoyed when I see serious movies with obvious military inaccuracies, but when it's almost pure comedy, I really don't care. Stripes is lauded as a great movie, but it's plot was even dumber and it actually tried to be serious in some parts and it had far more military inaccuracies. Plus, I think Delta Farce is much funnier! So just why doesn't everybody just enjoy the movie for what is and have some laughs. P.S. The saving of the town while blaring "Eastbound and Down" (my favorite song ever, by the way) from Smokey and the Bandit is just awesome. I sometimes pull out the movie just to watch that one scene!

I'm a character actor fan. With an actor I like, one of my favorite things to do is to track down as many of his or her performances on film and television as I can. (Netflix has made this much easier.) I rented "Delta Farce" because Glenn Morshower was in it. Well, the joke was on me: he's in the film for a grand total of about five minutes. The rest of the film was an empty, desolate comic waste. It's just not funny. I wasn't expecting the Marx Brothers, but I was expecting something better than this.The movie does pick up once the plot kicks in: our comic trio wind up in a Mexican village and find themselves defending it from a group of bandits. Yes, it's lifted from "The Magnificent Seven," but it still works. Sadly it takes way too long to get there, and the first third of the movie is almost unwatchable. I could feel my brain liquefying and pouring out my ears with every "We're in I-RAK!" uttered by Larry the Cable Guy. Not recommended.

After reading the comments for this movie, I thought it would be bad.But I was wrong, this movie is funny, really really funny. Cool casts and really nice and sharp jokes. There are not many comedies that have made me laugh, but this was one of those who pulled it off. The first 15 minutes or so were a little slow, but after that it gets a lot better. This movie wasn't some wannabé comedy, that want's to be funny, this movie was funny.I give this movie a 7, for what it is - a funny entertaining movie.Peace

After reading other peoples comments and seeing the review score i was shocked, i can't believe how low that the score it.I think that this film is awesome, well thought out. Putting three dumb people in the army and sending them to Iraq but ending up in Mexico, while the three dumb people think that they are in Iraq. One of the best films i have seen. I have watched it 1000000 times, and I'm going to watch it now that will make it 1000001.I love the humor the actors and everything about the movie. They couldn't of made it any better. I hope that they make another one like this.I cant see how other people could not of liked it, but i guess that people have their opinions.
