As the title implies, Larry the Cable Guy has a new job as a health inspector. Larry finds himself saddled with a partner he didn't ask for, farting, the prospect of a new relationship, more farting, a boss who wants him fired, even more farting, and a series of mysterious food poisonings at some of the city's best restaurants. Larry's a busy guy.I've seen a lot of dumb movies in my day, but Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector might just take the prize as the absolute dumbest. I think my IQ dropped a few points while I watched. The movie isn't much more than a continuous 80-something minute fart joke. The fart jokes go on and on and on. I didn't find the first one funny, so by the 50th, I was about ready to slit my wrists. Oh my God is this thing horrible! In between fart jokes, the movie finds time to offend just about every group imaginable. I'm not one that normally gets offended when watching a movie, but here, it slaps you in the face. Race, sexual orientation, handicaps, you name it - Larry treats them all with the same level of disdain and ridicule. It's bottom-of-the-barrel comedy. Still, I haven't rated the movie a 1/10 because, despite itself and my knowing better, there were a couple of moments that worked - most involving Larry's partner, Butlin. I'm shocked the makers of Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector were able to convince some of these actors to take the job. Iris Bahr (playing the previously mentioned Butlin), Megyn Price, Joe Pantoliano, and Joanna Cassidy must have all really needed the work. I'm shocked any would lower themselves to appear in this dreck. I know they were paid, but I still feel sorry for them.

I didn't give the movie a score because I never had the chance to finish watching it. I just ran out of time this weekend.What I don't understand are the ratings and comments made with regards to this movie.What did you all expect from Larry the Cable Guy? The humour seemed right on par with all his other stuff...maybe a little bit more raunchy but it definitely was Larry.I am not saying it is a great movie, I am not saying it was a nasty movie....I am only saying it is Larry and I went into watching it knowing I would see the typical Larry stuff, and I saw typical Larry stuff!

Anytime a movie whips by without my noticing, it's a good movie. Larry the Cable guy's movie did just that.Larry made me laugh. It was warm-hearted and tender.What's wrong with that?These so-called critics who loved '40-year old Virgin have somehow brain-washed the masses again into believing movies with 'heartland' or 'middle America' must be mocked at. I'm getting tired of the people who love 'Borat', but won't make room for other types of humor. It's my way or the highway.I say, 'forget them'. Forget the critics. They're mostly jerks who never made a film.These so-called critics annoy me. Have you noticed they all sound the same? They have the cynical, abrasive personality that you see on talk shows. This is what this country is headed.What made Larry the Cable Guy a great film was it never once made me bored.

I read a sampling of the other reviews, and find I'm in agreement with the few that thought this movie was entertaining. But, as others have noted, you HAVE to be a fan of Larry to get it. If you've never seen/heard him perform, then a lot of the one liners might seem very offensive. As in his act, he plays a naive "redneck" who is unintentionally insulting, and I, for one, find it to be rather funny. Yes, there is a good bit of bathroom humor, but, unlike some of the opinions, I don't think it was overly done, and I also thought the acting was rather good. I imagine the crew had a lot of fun making this movie, and that comes through the performances. I'm a middle-aged family man of normal intelligence, have pretty eclectic tastes regarding art, and don't follow NASCAR, and this movie made me laugh. I've seen some movies that have garnered some pretty good ratings on this site that I thought didn't deserve them, and I've seen others with terrible ratings that didn't deserve those either. This movie should rate no lower than a five. I don't know what people were expecting when they saw it, but take it for what it is, and you'll find yourself entertained.
