The redneck rube from the Blue Collar Comedy Tour franchise plays a character much like himself in this feature, which balances Larry the Cable Guy's occasional excesses in toilet humor with strong comic performances from the supporting cast. Larry plays a dedicated health inspector who gets in over his head when the city mayor (Joe Pantoliano) personally appoints him to investigate a rash of food poisonings at five-star restaurants. Larry's ignorance of anything cultural that doesn't involve his truck or MoonPies proves a handicap, but his knowledge of vermin and disarmingly unabashed way of interviewing witnesses and suspects slowly gets him where he needs to go. For the most part, the movie gives the comedian plenty of room to indulge his gross-out shtick. But it helps to have some other talent on board, notably Tom Wilson as Larry's exasperated boss, Iris Bahr as a dreary new partner Larry thinks is a man, David Koechner as a halfwit friend, Joanna Cassidy as a restaurant owner, and Megyn Price as Larry's shy but headstrong girlfriend. --Tom Keogh

 If you like Larry, you'll like this movie. March 25, 2006

I moderately like Larry's comedy, and as a result I like this movie, This movie is definitely Larry doing his comedy in a movie rather than in stand-up. There were quite a few laughs throughtout the movie, more so than recet movies, but it wasn't a constant laugh riot. If you hate Larry, you'll hate this movie, and if you love Larry, you'll love this movie.
Note that this is most definitely not a politically correct movie. There are plenty of fart and handicapped jokes, with a few gay ones tossed in as well. If you are offended by those jokes, you shouldn't bother to see this. Otherwise, you should like the movie just fine, but only the true blue Larry fans will absolutely love this movie. Thus, 4 stars.

And that is why you should rent this movie!!!!! I have no use for political correctness and all the whiny people in this country who support it and get all 'offended'.
Larry is one who does not care about political correctness. He can laugh at himself and anybody else. That is why I have always enjoyed him, Foxworthy and Engvall.
This movie does not hold back. Everybody and every group is fair game. This is a movie for those of us who don't care about political correctness or about people getting offended.
This movie is funny and had me laughing the way through.
Definitely not one for the kids though.

Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector is a very funny movie if you like the comedy of Larry the Cable Guy himself. The role model of rednecks will have you chuckling from the opening scene throughout most of the movie. Very dignified viewers are sure to be turned off by the generic plot (replace a rebel cop with a rebel health inspector) and the abundance of flatulence and toilet humor. In the end, its funniness outweighs its weaknesses. Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector doesn't disappoint.

I rented the movie and now I want to buy it because I laughed through the whole thing. It is full of bathroom and redneck humor so if you are PC and a little uptight you might not like it. I found it even more amusing because I know people that are a little bit like the character Larry. I don't care for a lot of comedians these days because their humor is awkward or lame but Larry is easy going and his humor just rolls off and makes me laugh. It's been a long time since a movie has made me laugh this much so I'm looking forward to more movies by Larry. I might even start going to movies at the theater again. If you like to laugh, aren't to uptight in your humor and aren't looking for an in-depth plot....kick back and enjoy Larry.

I've only seen Larry the Cable guy in a few stand up comedy spots, and since I was pleased with his style, I thought I'd give this movie a go. I'm glad I did.
Even though the plot was a bit weak overall, and I wasn't happy about the ending, good redneck jokes can be located all over the place. One of my favorite jokes was "she's so ugly she can go trick-or-treating over the phone".
Larry the Cable guy had a partner with him throughout the movie, and even though it was a woman, Larry kept treating her like a man by calling her "son" and "guy", which was hysterical.
Larry's big redneck truck makes an appearance, and I love that truck!
Despite what people might say, the movie was not covered in diarrhea and fart jokes, however, they do appear more often here than in other fart-comedies (for lack of better words).
A couple of the main characters, such as Larry's girlfriend and one of his work "friends" have been featured is some quality comedies on the Fox station (Grounded for Life and Arrested Development, respectively). These characters could have been funnier, but it's not a problem, because the movie was supposed to be about Larry the Cable guy in a comedy role.
Of course, Larry the Cable guy is at his very best doing stand up comedy, but for a silly redneck comedy, this is a golden treat. I enjoyed it, and laughed throughout.
