- 50VarietyVarietyIf three of "The Magnificent Seven" had been Gomer Pyle, the result might have looked like Delta Farce, a movie rife with fat, fart and Fallujah jokes, but with a subcutaneous wit that has a lot to do with Iraq war fatigue.
- 40L.A. WeeklyL.A. WeeklyYou could make a case that any movie in which Mexicans and rednecks become best of friends is a net positive for society. But to do that, you'd have to ignore the severe boredom that sets in about halfway through this comedy.
- 38New York Daily NewsJack MathewsNew York Daily NewsJack MathewsDreadfully unfunny.
- Perhaps the people most insulted are white Southerners, who presumably are expected to embrace one whopping brain-dead metaphor.
- 30The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe hilariously dirty insult comic Lisa Lampanelli shows up all too briefly as Engvall's shrewish wife.
- 25The Globe and Mail (Toronto)The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Delta Farce is so relentlessly racist (and homophobic), without ever having the intelligence to pass that bigotry off as satire, that viewers will be left thinking "Borat" has a soft touch.
- 25New York PostKyle SmithNew York PostKyle SmithLarry the Cable Guy channels both Moe and Curly in the Three Stooges-go-to-war comedy Delta Farce.
- 25TV Guide MagazineKen FoxTV Guide MagazineKen FoxOverall the movie is too stupid to offend any but the most sensitive viewer.
- 25Boston GlobeTy BurrBoston GlobeTy BurrConsider this the sequel to "Ernest in the Army " that the late Jim Varney never got around to making. It's not very good but at least it's not evil.
- 25San Francisco ChroniclePeter HartlaubSan Francisco ChroniclePeter HartlaubA mindless comedy where the blatant racial stereotypes are outnumbered only by the flatulence jokes. The best thing that can be said about this movie is it falls just short of being an international incident.
